Automatic Tape Dispensers
Automatic tape dispensers can be integral when integrated into the packaging process. Hub Packaging are delighted to stock dispensers from industry leaders, Better Packages. We stock the BP500 Electronic Water Activated Tape Dispenser, a high capacity machine with a robust design that is ideal for low volume users. The automatic dispenser’s adaptable design means it can dispense pre-moistened lengths of both plain, and reinforced gummed paper tape, at 1.14m per second; its speed and user-friendly design improves your packaging process efficiency, whilst reducing employee risk.
Whilst the BP500 Electronic dispenser is exemplary for low volume users, we also stock the BP555; a machine which is ideal for high-capacity operations. Its inbuilt 1.3 litre resevoir and wetting system ensures adhesive is evenly dispersed across the whole tape width, contributing to a more economic and efficient packaging process. The machine is equipped to disperse pre-set lengths, which can be adjusted to a repeat pre-set length, reducing the number of necessary changeovers.
