5.5 Packaging Method

For reels, once the taping has been completed, the end of the leader is fixed onto the reel with tape. The product name, lot number, quantity, and date code are recorded on the reel and the cardboard box used for tape delivery. Each reel is separately packed in a cardboard box for delivery.

Trays are packed with five loaded trays and one empty tray on top for support and to keep packages secure. The stack is secured with stable plastic straps and sealed in a moisture-proof bag.

Customer-specific bar code labels can be added under request or general purchasing specification.

Moisture-sensitive packages are baked before packing and are packed within 8 hours of coming out of the oven. Both the tape-and-reel and the tray moisture-proof bags are sealed and marked with appropriate labeling warning that the packages inside the bags are dry-packed and giving the level of moisture sensitivity.
