Case Study: 12 Pieces of Double-Sided Tape Applied in One Pass

Overview

Applying 12 pieces of double-sided tape used to require two separate runs.

KQ Automation developed a customized solution that applies all 12 pieces in two different directions in a single pass.

The Challenge

The original production process required:

• First pass: apply tape in one direction

• Second pass: run the product again

• Apply the remaining tape in the other direction

This meant more handling, more repeated work, and a longer production process.

The Solution

A custom tape application machine was developed around the customer's actual production requirements.

The machine can:

• Apply 12 pieces of double-sided tape

• Apply tape in two different directions

• Complete the application in one pass

• Reduce repeated handling

Key Benefits

• One-pass tape application

• 12 pieces applied at once

• Less repeated work

• Less product handling

• Higher production efficiency

• Customized for the customer's process

A Custom Solution, Not Just a Standard Machine

Not every production process fits a standard machine.

For this application, the solution was designed around the customer's existing process and the specific tape application requirements.

This approach helps manufacturers automate special applications without adding unnecessary production steps.

Conclusion

A simple change in the production process can make a big difference.

By applying 12 pieces of double-sided tape in two directions during one pass, the customized solution reduces repeated work and improves production efficiency.
