The rugged stainless steel construction provides exceptional durability even in high-moisture environments, and the taping head also has a friction brake drum to maintain proper tape tension and prevent overcoasting. Taping Heads Provide Low Impact Sealing Designed to apply a "C" clip of Scotch® box sealing tape, the 3M™ AccuGlide™ 2+ Stainless Steel Upper/Lower Taping Head seals the top or bottom center seam. With a flowing, curvilinear form for low impact and consistent application, 3M™ AccuGlide™ taping heads help protect boxes while providing greater case throughput. The 3M™ AccuGlide™ Taping Process Regular slotted containers (RSC) are placed on the conveyor and pushed into the drive belts, which convey each box into the taping head. The 3M™ AccuGlide™ Taping Head applies Scotch® pressure sensitive film box sealing tape at the leading end of the box, continuing along the center seam to the trailing end. This is called a "C" clip application. The taping head cuts the tape as it is being applied. After the box is securely sealed, it exits the case sealer.
