Tape & reel
Avnet Logistics uses fully automated or manual tape equipment. Tape & Reel services encompass repacking products from trays and tubes onto reels as well as unreeling products and repacking them onto trays or tubes. These services are available as add-on to programming orders, but also as stand-alone services.
To ensure highest possible quality, state of the art 3D optical inspection systems are employed to measure the lead integrity and lead co-planarity.
All materials and processes are in accordance with the EIA481D standard. On request, full peel-force test documentation is on-hand with every tape as well as Certificates of Compliance (CoC) for every tape material in use.

Benefits of laser marking
- High throughput
- No manual handling
- Low cost
- Heat resistant
- Consistent quality
- No glue residues
Our equipment includes in-line systems integrated in pick and place machines as well as stand-alone laser markers. Using full-automatic tray and tube feeders, no manual handling of parts is necessary.
Labels
Labels are chosen for small quantities, samples or prototypes.
Labels must be designed individually, printed and manually applied. They are sensitive to heat and other environmental influences as well as limited by the component size. Polyester labels are commonly used. Kapton™ labels are heat resistant up to 260 ºC and eligible for reflow soldering of SMD devices - however high priced. Labels are suitable for reels, tubes and trays, if components are too small to be labelled or laser marked.
