Pressure Sensitive
Tabletop pressure sensitive dispensers allow an operator to grab the tape and take it to the point of application. Manual tabletop dispensers allow an operator to pull and tear any amount of tape, or to dispense a fixed amount of tape by use of a hand lever. Electric dispensers can be set to dispense a fixed amount of tape automatically either by a push of a button or foot switch or a sensor that detects when the previously cut length of tape has been removed.
