ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for adhering a tape to a nonstraight edge of a generally planar workpiece has a stationary workpiece station, clamps retaining the workpiece stationarily in the station, a carriage displaceable adjacent the station parallel to the plane of the workpiece in generally perpendicular longitudinal and transverse directions, and a roller engageable with the workpiece and rotatable on the carriage about an axis generally perpendicular to the workpiece plane. The carriage is displaced in the directions relative to the stationary workpiece to roll the roller around the workpiece edge. A guide feeds a tape from a supply of the tape and an adhesive on the carriage to the roller. The tape is pressed by the roller against the workpiece edge as the roller rolls around the workpiece edge so that the tape is adhered to the workpiece edge.
