This depends on the requirements that the carrier tape must meet. In certain cases expedited pricing can be quoted for a custom carrier tape to be designed and manufactured in less than a week. Please contact us for more information.

Carrier tape is manufactured with polycarbonate, polystyrene, or paper materials. Polycarbonate: A black plastic material with tighter tolerances for better part capture is used primarily for smaller and thinner electrostatically-sensitive parts and electronic devices. Polycarbonate carrier tape is available in non-conductive (NCPC), static-dissipative (SDPC), and conductive (CPC) formats. Polystyrene: The most commonly used material for carrier tape. It is used for larger components requiring less precise pocket forms. Polystyrene carrier tape is available in static-dissipative (SDPS), and conductive (CPS) formats. Paper: Paper tape is used for passive components, typically in the 0201 up to 1210 device size range. It is available in half-punched or press pocket format.
