OUR SERVICES

DTR is a full service tape and reel house specializing in the packaging of surface mount devices, manufacturing of carrier tape, and custom tools. Ask about other value add services - we will find a solution for you. 

Tape and Reel SMD

Capability for 8mm - 120mm. 

2D Inspection is available to verify complanarity and orientation. 

Sort and Tape by Lot, and/or Date Code to maintain traceability. 

Taping your parts in sequential order to maintain placement traceability. 

Applying Pick Caps or Kaptons to your part to elimintate "HAND" placement. 

All work meets or exceeds EIA-481. 



Axial and Radial Taping

We follow the guidelines and standards for thru-hole parts set by:

 

EIA-296-E  for Axial Components

  • Taping axial leaded components so they can be automatically handled with the lead egress concentric with the longitudinal axis centerline of the component body, while maintaining polarity if necessary.

EIA-468-C for Radial Components

  • Taping radial leaded components with regard to the abscissa and ordinate lines so they can be automatically handled for high speed insertion or forming, while maintaining polarity if necessary. 

Dominion Carrier Tapes

Industry Standard Pockets, or Custom Tooled Pockets? We manufacture in-house. Capabilites include Traditional Embossed Carrier Tapes, and Deep Draw Technology for parts that are deeper than they are wide. Click below to see our Custom Made Carrier Tapes.

Open Tool List

Lead Trimming

Dominion Tape and Reel is capable of trimming and forming both axial and radial leaded devices to your specifications.  Consigned or Turnkey, let us help you with your supply chain demands. We are problem solvers.

Lite Assembly

Dominion now offers lite assembly services to stream line your manufacturing process, thereby  reserving your overhead rates.  Consigned or turnkey, let us help with your supply chain demands.  We are problem solvers.

Interposer Depaneling

When OEM parts are scarce or unavailable, Interposer parts can keep your 

production on schedule. We will slice your "Interposing" PCB's apart, and place them in carrier tape. We can also manufacture a Custom Tooled carrier tape for the Interposer if needed. 

Component Baking

For all Moisture Sensitive Levels (MSL), we can bake your parts, put them on Tape and Reel, and Dry-Pack to maintain integrity. All procedures conform to IPC/JEDEC 

J-Std-033D. A Certificate of Conformance (C of C) is provided for all part numbers.

Common Questions

Do I need tape and reel?
Most automated equipment  like pick and place machines require surface mount devices and other various components like axials, connectors, radials...etc to be  specialty packaged  in tape and reel.    Typically, the part will have a datasheet describing the sort of packaging it needs. 
How long does it take to tape and reel?
Our typical lead time is 3-5 days.  Call us if you are in  a bind and need it sooner, if we can get it done faster then we will.
 How do I know Dominion can tape my part?
Email us your manufacturers part number and/or a data sheet so we can review it within 24 hours  and let you know.  
Does Dominion bake moisture sensitive (MSL) parts?
Yes, we do.  We will review your datasheet  confirming how long they need to baked for and to what moisture sensitivity level.
