Packaging Machinery Products

3M AccuGlide™ Taping Heads are specifically designed to work most effectively with high quality, pressure-sensitive 3M box sealing tapes. You get a strong, secure seal with each application of 3M box sealing tape to ensure that your shipments arrive intact. And with the many 3M box sealing tapes available - from general use to cold temperature tapes to high performance, in colors or custom printed - you're sure to find the tape that meets your needs.

AccuGlide™ Taping Heads from 3M

Choose taping heads designed to meet your application requirements

The taping head you select is determined by several factors: the type of equipment you have, case orientation, the speed of the ease in feet per minute and the number of cases per shift, day, week and year. For example, the AccuGlide™ STD, NWT and AccuGlide™ II STD taping heads should be used for line speeds under 80 feet per minute. The AccuGlide™ HST taping head can be used for speeds up to 150 feet per minute and in heavy duty, multi-shift or continuous operations. Side-mounted taping heads and powered drive assemblies are also available. All 3M taping heads apply a "C" clip of pressure-sensitive tape to the center seam of your cases.

The AccuGlide™ STD taping head has a linear track to guide the applying and buffing roller linkage, insuring smooth and consistent application pressure. Its compact size and simplicity of design make it ideal for replacement of other types of taping, gluing or stapling heads in existing case sealing machines.
