IEC 60286-2:2008

Packaging of components for automatic handling - Part 2: Packaging of components with unidirectional leads on continuous tapes

IEC 60286-2:2008 applies to the packaging of components with two or more unidirectional leads for use in electronic equipment. In general, the tape is applied to the component leads. This standard covers requirements for taping techniques used with equipment for automatic handling, preforming of leads, insertion and other operations and includes only those dimensions which are essential to the taping of components intended for the above-mentioned purposes. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1997 and its amendment 1 (2002) and constitutes a minor revision related to tables, figures and references.

Emballage de composants pour opérations automatisées - Partie 2: Emballage des composants à sorties unilatérales en bandes continues

La CEI 60286-2:2008 s'applique à l'emballage des composants à deux sorties unilatérales ou plus utilisés dans les équipements électroniques. En général, la bande est appliquée aux sorties des composants. La présente norme contient les exigences relatives aux techniques de mise sur bande applicables pour l'utilisation des équipements de manutention, de préformage des sorties, d'insertion et d'autres opérations automatiques. Elle fournit uniquement les dimensions essentielles pour la mise sur bande de composants destinés aux opérations mentionnées ci-dessus. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition publiée en 1997 et son amendement 1 (2002) et constitue une révision technique mineure qui porte sur des tableaux, des schémas et des références.

PACKAGING OF COMPONENTS FOR AUTOMATIC HANDLING –

Part 2: Packaging of components with unidirectional

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misint
