Tape and foam tape application

As part of AKE Components, our tape and foam tape application systems are standardized, modular in design and for maximum efficiency .

Adhesive bonding has established itself as a high-performance alternative to mechanical joining methods, particularly for attaching components. In modern vehicle manufacturing, it is now indispensable: in addition to weight reduction, the technology is especially compelling due to its high flexibility – and has thus become a key technology for the industry.

From concept development to simulation, design, manufacturing and programming, right through to commissioning, everything at AKE comes from a single source.

As an expert in automation and robotics, AKE offers high-precision solutions for tape application. Our modular application systems enable the reliable processing of films, adhesive tapes, and foam tapes and can be flexibly integrated into various automation levels.

Your advantages
  • High precision, even with complex geometries
  • Reproducible results through automated processes
  • Flexible processing of a wide range of adhesive tape types and materials
  • Short cycle times for efficient series production
  • Optimized processes for maximum quality assurance
  • Easy integration into new and existing systems

Application of adhesive tapes and foam tapes – tesa®Narrow Seal
The application heads, developed in collaboration with tesa, enable the precise application of single- and double-sided adhesive tapes as well as electrically conductive tapes (ECT). Particularly with sensitive components, the systems ensure a highly controlled and stable process environment, allowing for precise, bubble-free, and reproducible tape application – even with complex geometries and demanding surface conditions. Advanced system design and optimized process coordination contribute to reliable performance and reproducible results over extended production runs. The systems are used in a wide variety of applications, such as displays, electronic control units, and other components where precision, repeatability, and process reliability are crucial for product quality.

Application of sealing tapes – tesa®Box Seal
For battery and high-voltage applications, AKE offers automated solutions for the application of tesa®Box Seal tapes.
This combination enables the sealing of components to the highest quality standards. Consistent process control and a defined contact pressure ensure reliable sealing, protection against environmental influences, and long-term performance.
