ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling the tape affixing direction of an automatic tape affixing apparatus including a tape affixing head movable in X axis, Y axis, Z axis, A axis and C axis and a control device for moving the tape affixing head on an adhesion form, the tape affixing head carrying a tape supply reel, a tape-take-up reel, a tape presser roller and a tape drive roller includes the steps of; calculating a normal vector of each fine section of a surface of the adhesion form and a vector of a ridge between fine sections based on X-, Y- and Z- coordinate values of points in fine sections, the fine section being formed by dividing the surface of the adhesion form in the form of a lattice; calculating the affixing direction vector of a control point of a tape from the normal vector and the ridge vector; and controlling the moving course of the tape affixing head in accordance with the affixing direction vector. Accordingly, the tape affixing direction can be controlled with high accuracy.
