Tape Wrapping, Bundling and Cable Tying Machines
After termination, a harness is wrapped, tied and marked. Tape wrapping applies adhesive tape along a branch at a controlled pitch; bundling gathers branches into a fixed bundle; cable tying closes the bundle with a nylon tie or hook-and-loop strap. These are the operations most often still done by hand, and they are where labour cost concentrates on a harness line — which is why the wrap pattern, not the machine speed, is usually the first specification to fix.
A wrap operation is judged on overlap percentage and pitch consistency. A machine that holds both lets you move an operator to a value-adding station; a machine that varies pitch by hand produces rework at the inspection gate.

Choosing within this family
Fix the wrap pattern before the machine.
Full wrap, single-point and spiral are different heads; the pattern is dictated by the harness drawing, not by preference.
Handheld, bench-top or in-line?
Handheld suits long branches and awkward geometry; bench-top suits short, repeated branches; in-line suits a taped branch inside an automatic line.
Tape type is a compatibility question.
Cloth, PVC, vinyl and hook-and-loop tape feed differently; confirm the tape before ordering.
Pitch consistency is the measurable quality variable.
Ask for the pitch tolerance over a branch, not for a speed figure alone.
Tie and wrap are separate decisions.
A machine can wrap without tying and vice versa; specifying both from the start avoids a second purchase.
