Labeling and taping jobs in Hardware & metal parts
Metal parts are usually taped rather than labeled: double-sided, 3M or high-temperature tape is laid in strips while the part is held by vacuum or a fixture. The floor-standing rotary-head and 2-axis tape applicators do this at ±1 mm and 500 mm/s; the dual-head model tapes flat faces on uneven parts that do not sit steadily and unloads them magnetically. Protective film up to 450 mm wide is laminated and cut automatically by the wide-format film applicator, and the metal edge wrapping machine is built to order for the edge-wrapping step.
For this industry we recommend 8 of the 56 models on this site. Each is listed below with the accuracy and speed printed in our catalog; the figures are ratings of the standard models and exclude product and label or tape tolerances.

Tape Applicators (Taping Machines)
Floor-Standing Rotary-Head Tape Applicator
The YIXING floor-standing rotary-head tape applicator holds the part on its table by vacuum or a fixture and rotates the tape head to lay multiple horizontal and vertical strips. It covers a 500 × 1000 mm taping stroke at ±1 mm accuracy and 500 mm/s, and applies double-sided, 3M, clear and high-temperature tape.
- Accuracy
- ±1 mm
- Speed
- 500 mm/s
Tape Applicators (Taping Machines)
Floor-Standing 2-Axis Tape Applicator
The YIXING floor-standing 2-axis tape applicator splits the motion between two axes: the X axis drives the tape head and the Y axis moves the table carrying the part. It covers a 650 × 650 mm stroke at ±1 mm and 500 mm/s and suits parallel strips on sheets and foam boards.
- Accuracy
- ±1 mm
- Speed
- 500 mm/s
Tape Applicators (Taping Machines)
Dual-Head Tape Applicator with Magnetic Unloading
The YIXING dual-head tape applicator is a custom build for taping flat faces on uneven parts that do not sit steadily. Parts are loaded into fixtures by hand, four strips go on at once, and a magnetic pick-up on a motion module unloads them; the two heads work in turn. Approx. 2000 × 1600 × 1500 mm, 260 kg.
- Accuracy
- ±1 mm
- Speed
- 500 mm/s
