Characteristics of EOG Sterilization
1. Sterilization at Low Temperature and Low Humidity
This is optimal for sterilization of plastics and rubbers that are frequently
damaged due to heat and moisture.
1. Extensive Sterilization
This is effective for all microorganisms (general bacteria and fungi and more)
1. Sterilization with Packaging Is Possible
Products can be sterilized without removing thepackaging because the high penetration rate allows
penetration through materials such as plastic films,paper, and fibers to reach small areas.
1. No Corrosive Properties with Metals

Pocket Size: 0.4 x 0.2 mm

Carrier Tape for Miniature Components

With our packaging materials for electrical components, we have introduced FAsystems and our original quality management system, and we are constantly setting
new goals for surface mount technology components centered on carrier tapes, covertapes, plastic reels and bulk cases. We also have a reuse system in place. We willcontinue to take new challenges in developing our own new and original products andtechnology for the electrical component field that will continue to increase in densityand become more miniaturized in the days to come.

The pocket size has gradually
decreased in size
over generations.

We are striving to develop products that meet the need of
our electrical component customers and the industry basedon our molding technology developed over the years byresponding to the needs associated with miniaturization ofelectrical components.
