Abstract
A tape affixing apparatus includes a frame support table for supporting an annular frame, a lifting and lowering unit for lifting and lowering the frame support table, a tape affixing unit, and a controller. The tape affixing unit includes a tape uncoiler, a tape take-up reel, and a presser roller movable from one end to the other end of the annular frame supported on the frame support table while pressing a tape paid out from the tape uncoiler to affix the tape to the annular frame. The controller positions the presser roller in a pressing position, affixes the tape to one end of the annular frame while applying tension to the tape, moves the presser roller toward the other end of the annular frame, and keeps the tension on the tape constant by lifting the frame support table in synchronism with the presser roller as it is moved.
