Patent ID: 8882951

Claim:
A method for producing an analysis tape for fluid samples, in particular body fluids, wherein the method comprises the following steps: providing a laminate tape having a laminate carrier tape and at least one diagnostic functional layer, and cutting the laminate tape in such a way that a plurality of diagnostic auxiliary labels arise; transferring the diagnostic auxiliary labels to a vacuum roller; and transferring the diagnostic auxiliary labels to a carrier tape, wherein at least one vacuum roller is used for the transfer of the diagnostic auxiliary labels to the carrier tape, wherein the diagnostic functional layer is lifted off from the laminate carrier tape by guiding the laminate carrier tape around an edge with a small radius to form a lifted off part of the diagnostic functional layer, wherein a lateral extension of the lifted-off part in a running direction of the lifted-off part is terminated by a free end forming an outermost edge of the diagnostic auxiliary label to next be cut, wherein the diagnostic functional layer is cut at a predetermined distance from the lifted off free end by means of a cutting device to form each diagnostic auxiliary label and to form a subsequent lifted off free end at an outermost edge of a subsequent diagnostic auxiliary label.
