A component mounting device comprises a mounting head being configured to mount a component from a carrier tape onto a substrate, a component supply unit being configured to convey the carrier tape, a holder, and a carrier tape holding device providing a first storage space in communication with the holder. The carrier tape holding device is configured to perform operations comprising: holding the carrier tape that, when conveyed by the component supply unit, is pulled out from a tape roll body stored in the first storage space, having a tape roll body for replenishment stored in the holder; and receiving the tape roll body for replenishment from the holder when the carrier tape of the tape roll body for replenishment is conveyed by the component supply unit.

A tape affixing system capable of automatically switching or replacing a dicing tape. A tape affixing system 1 includes a stocker 5 that stores tape magazines 4 each accommodating a dicing tape DT wound in a roll shape, an affixing apparatus 3 which includes movable guide rollers 32a and 32b, fixed guide rollers 33a and 33b, and a knife plate 35 that regulate a reel-out region R of the dicing tape DT to a predetermined track, on which each of the tape magazines 4 is replaceably mountable, and which affixes the dicing tape DT to a dicing frame DT and a workpiece W, and a first conveyance robot 6 that delivers the tape magazine 4 between the stocker 5 and the affixing apparatus 3.

A mounting equipment includes a frame, a holder on the frame, and includes a holding pin configured to hold a tape reel, and an electric cylinder on the frame, connected to the holder and configured to move a position of the holder.

A workpiece processing apparatus that prevents a processing capability of a processing apparatus from deteriorating due to a peeling unit that peels a protective sheet from a workpiece. A workpiece processing apparatus includes an affixing unit that affixes a dicing tape to a workpiece and a dicing frame, and a plurality of peeling units that peel a protective sheet previously affixed to the workpiece from the workpiece integrated with the dicing frame via the dicing tape.

A portable hook and loop strip dispenser includes a base, a movable claw, a button, and a spring. The base has a protrusion column and a stopper block disposed in the protrusion column, in which a roll portion of the hook and loop strip is sleeved onto the protrusion column. The movable claw is liftably disposed in the protrusion column, and a claw hook of the movable claw is extended out of the protrusion column or retracted into the protrusion column along with the movable claw lifting or lowering in the protrusion column. The button is rotably and liftably disposed on the protrusion column and borne on the movable claw, and the button is in a locked state or an unlocked state due to rotation. The spring abuts between the protrusion column and the movable claw and constantly drives the movable claw to lift in the protrusion column.

Cutting article, for example for cutting tape, that is removable from a container, such as a box, of tape. Wound tape articles containing the same. Kits containing the same.

A setting tool for setting connecting elements from a material tape. The setting tool comprises a C frame, a drive unit arranged at the C frame with a setting head that is linearly movable in the direction of a counter tool, an engine for displacing the material tape, arranged adjacent to the setting head and rigidly connected to the setting head, a cutting device for cutting the material tape, located behind the engine and comprising a cutting part with a blade and an actuating part, the cutting part being rigidly connected to the setting head, and the actuating part being connected to the setting tool such that there is a relative operational movement between the actuating part and cutting part, wherein the setting head is movable by the drive unit into a cutting position such that the blade cuts the material tape during actuation.
