Frequently Asked Questions

Who makes the Speedy TT tear tape applicator?

Speedy TT is made by Macari-Fidia (Macari S.r.l.), based in Ciriè near Turin, Italy. The company was founded in 1990 and supplies customers in over 30 countries.

What is tear tape, and what does Speedy TT apply it to?

Tear tape is a strip that the recipient pulls to open a pack cleanly, without scissors or a knife. Speedy TT applies it to complex items such as courier envelopes and the easy-opening systems of products like washing powder. It is also used on the back of posters, on envelope closures, on shopping bags and on e-commerce envelopes.

What tear tape widths can Speedy TT apply?

The minimum tear tape width is 4 mm. Send the tape you plan to use and Macari-Fidia will confirm whether Speedy TT can apply it.

How fast is Speedy TT?

Speedy TT is rated at up to 100 pieces per minute. When it works alongside faster applicators such as Speedy (up to 200 pieces per minute), tell Macari-Fidia your target output so the configuration can be checked.

Where is Speedy TT used together with other tape applicators?

On returnable e-commerce envelopes, two Speedy applicators and one Speedy TT apply the two double-sided strips and the tear tape in one pass: see tape applicators for returnable e-commerce envelopes and the Tosca returnable envelope line.
