The disclosure relates to an electronic component packing reel for a tape and reel packaging system and the electronic components are supported in pockets of a carrier tape wound around the reel, the packing reel includes: a central hub; two wall elements attached on both sides of the centrale hub defining a retaining space for retaining the carrier tape wound around the central hub; a hub insert arranged for placement of the hub insert over the central hub, the hub insert having an outer rim diameter for increasing a diameter of the central hub, and the hub insert includes at least two sections having mating locking means for interlocking the sections upon placement of the hub insert over the central hub.

A dispenser device for storing and distributing medical electrodes. The dispenser device includes a shell having an inner volume. The shell has an aperture extending through the shell to the inner volume. A strip of a plurality of electrodes is arranged in a pattern within the inner volume of the shell. An end of the strip extends through the aperture and out of the shell. Pulling the end of the strip moves the plurality of electrodes according to the pattern. The shell is preferably a round or rectangular shape. For a round shell, the strip of electrodes is wrapped around a hub within the inner volume. For a rectangular shell, the strip of electrodes is arranged in a Z-fold pattern within the inner volume. The dispenser device may have a vapor proof cap over the aperture that prevents the electrodes from drying out within the shell.

There is provided an apparatus for monitoring compliance, facilitating automatic dispensing and childproofing strip packaged medication. In one embodiment a dispenser advances a packet, controls advancement of the packet and detects the presence and absence of the packet, including electronic circuitry for recording events. A replicate for strip package medication can have packets with an open conductive trace, each packet being rupturable at a location to interrupt conductivity of the conductive trace. When the conductive trace of one of the packets completes an external circuit, the circuit is interrupted when the packet is ruptured. In another aspect, each packet has a tuned antenna that is tuned to an external transceiver which detects the detuning of each antenna. In a method of making a replicate for strip package medication, conductive ink is printed on a surface of each packet of the replicate and longitudinal edges of the replicate are reinforced.
