Measurement and Sources of Lateral Tape Motion: A Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
The sources of lateral tape motion in a tape drive are reviewed. Currently used measurement methods and models for lateral tape motion are analyzed and compared. The effect of roller run-out, tape edge contact, and tape tension transients on lateral tape motion is discussed. A dual stage actuator tape head is investigated to improve track-following capability and increase the track density on a magnetic tape. DOI: 10.1115/1.3002332

Correlation of Lateral Tape Motion and Tape Tension Transients
Introduction High frequency lateral tape motion (LTM) is a problem in tape technology that limits track density in a tape drive. To reduce high frequency LTM, it is important to identify all sources of lateral tape motion. The most important sources of high frequency LTM are edge contact between tape and tape drive components, non-repeatable roller axial run-out, air induced flutter and tape te...

متن کاملNon-contact tape tension measurement and correlation of lateral tape motion and tape tension transients
Non-contact tension measurement of magnetic tape is performed. Light from a focussed light source is directed at a tape surface and the light reflected from the tape is captured by a photo cell. As the tape tension varies, the divergence of the reflected light bundle changes, i.e., the amount of light seen by the photo cell is a measure for the tension in the tape. Using this noncontact tension...

Purpose: Regarding the high prevalence of low back pain in various communities and the need to determine an appropriate treatment plan for these patients, examining their functional limitation and disability level is of utmost importance. In this regard, one of the important indicators is Lumbar range of motion. Measurement of the range of motion is a common and appropriate method for determini...
متن کاملBart Raeymaekers ASME / JSME Joint Conference on Micromechatronics for Information and Precision Equipment ( MIPE
Introduction Lateral tape motion (LTM) is the time-dependent displacement of magnetic tape perpendicular to the tape transport direction. Lateral tape motion may cause track misregistration between the read/write head and a previously written track, thereby limiting the recording density that can be achieved [1]. Currently, the track density of typical magnetic tape drives is approximately 40 t...
