Hi all.

         I have a problem with our Fuji CP642 being able to cut TI
carrier tape.  The problem is this:

> "TI's carrier tape is able to cut into single pieces by Fuji CP642 but
> TI's tensile strength  is too high.  It is 5.3-5.6kg/mm^2 compared to
> 2.9-3.3kg/mm^2 of the others.  This physical characteristic allows
> these single cut-carrier tape to sit on top of each other while it
> does not happen with the other vendors.  Thus the TI stacked
> cut-carrier-tape are too big and heavy for the air vacuum unit of the
> CP642 (which was designed to deal with single and equal or less then
> 32mm cut-carrier tape only)."

Is there anyone else out there with a CP642 having a similar problem
with TI's carrier tape, and if so what have you done to resolve this
problem?

All comments and suggestions will be greatly appreciated, and thanks in
advance!
