Hands-free electric gummed tape dispenser

Phoenix E2 Electric Eye Tape Dispenser

The Phoenix E2 (PE2) is an electric water-activated tape dispenser with photoelectric, hands-free tape dispensing for carton sealing.

Select the required tape length, then activate the electric eye with a hand movement to dispense tape when needed. This on-demand operation avoids leaving a pre-dispensed strip waiting at the machine.

Machine features

Hands-Free Tape Dispensing on Demand

The E2 combines measured tape dispensing with a photoelectric sensor that can trigger the next strip without pressing a keypad for each cycle.

Photoelectric Activation

Wave a hand in front of the electric eye to request the preset tape length.

Measured Tape Lengths

Select repeatable tape lengths for common carton sizes.

On-Demand Operation

Dispense the strip when the operator is ready rather than leaving activated tape exposed while waiting.

Moistening System

Brushes apply water to activate the adhesive before the strip is applied to a carton.

Top Heater

A top heater assists with activating the adhesive on water-activated tape.

Automatic Cutting

The machine cuts the dispensed strip to the selected length.

How it works

Electric Eye Dispensing for Packing Stations

With the Phoenix E2, the operator selects a length for the carton being sealed. When another strip is needed, a hand movement at the photoelectric sensor activates dispensing.

Because tape is dispensed on demand, the operator does not need to leave a wetted strip exposed while finishing another task. The machine feeds, moistens and cuts the tape for application.

For operations needing more advanced programmable dispensing options, compare the Phoenix E4 Elite.
