Techspeed TM 100 – Versatile Operator-Controlled Taping Machine for Wires, Cables and Cable Harnesses

Techspeed TM 100 – Versatile Operator-Controlled Taping Machine for Wires, Cables and Cable Harnesses

The Techspeed TM 100 is a versatile operator-controlled taping machine for wires, cables and cable harnesses, designed for applications requiring flexibility, precision and consistent results.

Its compact benchtop design makes the TM 100 particularly suitable for short production runs, prototypes, cable harness modules and variable production requirements, while its digital control and servo-driven technology provide precise tape application and controlled cable feeding.

The TM 100 combines manual operation with intelligent software functions, helping simplify the taping process while maintaining a high level of repeatability and operator control.

Flexible Taping for Different Production Requirements

The TM 100 is designed to adapt easily to different production scenarios, from prototyping and small batches to simple cable harnesses and variable production runs.

Its short setup procedure allows production tasks to be started quickly, while the operator-controlled process provides the flexibility required when working with different cable configurations and applications.

The machine is available in two feeding configurations:

  • TM 100R – roller feed
  • TM 100B – belt feed

The roller feed configuration is suitable for standard cables, while the belt feed provides a solution for thicker, heavier and high-voltage cables.

Operator-Controlled with Digital Precision

Although the TM 100 is an operator-controlled machine, it incorporates digital control and servo-driven technology to provide precise and repeatable tape application.

The touch-panel interface and servo drives help the operator control the taping process while providing:

  • Smooth start-up of the taping head
  • Rapid stopping of the rotating head
  • Precise feed control
  • Consistent tape application
  • Improved handling
  • Enhanced operational safety

Software-assisted functions further simplify the process and help reduce the time required for operator training.

Roller or Belt Feeding

The TM 100 is available with two feeding systems, allowing the machine to be adapted to different cable types and applications.

TM 100R – Roller Feed

The TM 100R uses a roller feeding system and is particularly suitable for standard cables and typical cable harness applications.

TM 100B – Belt Feed

The TM 100B uses a belt feeding system and is particularly suitable for thicker, heavier and high-voltage cables.

This flexibility allows manufacturers to select the feeding configuration best suited to their application.

Closed, Open or Dual Tape Winding

The TM 100 can be configured with different winding head options depending on the production requirements.

Available configurations include:

  • Closed winding head
  • Open winding head
  • Dual tape winding head

The open winding head is particularly useful when processing longer branches or applications where easier cable handling is required.

The optional dual tape configuration allows two tapes to be applied within the same process when required.

Designed for Prototypes and Short Production Runs

The TM 100 is particularly well suited to production environments where flexibility is more important than maximum automation.

It is an effective solution for:

  • Prototyping
  • Small production batches
  • Cable harness development
  • Cable harness modules
  • Variable production
  • Simple cable harnesses
  • Long cable harness branches

The operator-controlled concept makes it possible to handle different cable configurations without the complexity of a fully automated production system.

This makes the TM 100 a practical solution for manufacturers who need versatility, quick setup and consistent taping quality.

Compatible Tapes

The TM 100 is designed to work with machine application tapes available on the market, including PVC tape.

Tape specifications

  • Tape width: 9–19 mm
  • Other tape widths: available on request
  • Maximum tape outer diameter: 165 mm
  • Tape core: 1.5" or 3"
  • Other core sizes: available on request

The appropriate tape should be selected according to the cable material, application type and specific process requirements.

Cable and Cable Harness Applications

The Techspeed TM 100 is suitable for tape application on:

  • Wires
  • Cables
  • Simple cable harnesses
  • Long cable harnesses
  • Cable harness modules
  • Other suitable materials compatible with machine application tapes
  • Double-taping applications

The standard maximum cable harness diameter is 20 mm, with an optional configuration available for diameters up to 35 mm.

The taping distance is effectively continuous, allowing the machine to be used for applications requiring different taping lengths.
