Abstract

The transport wheel of the feed device is driven by a drive motor in such a manner that one revolution of the drive motor produces a transport movement of the tape which corresponds to a fraction of the pitch of the component compartments in the tape. Before the drive motor has completed a predetermined number of revolutions, a stop is applied, which stops the motor exactly when the next complete revolution has been completed.
