Advancements to the high-performance cartridge Sony has developed an
innovative reel hub design that maintains an ideal gap between the tape edge and
the reel flange to ensure operating stability. The improvements in coaxiality of
the hub and drive rotation axes during operation will give customers peace of
mind when using Sony LTO5 cartridges in any LTO5 drive. The new binder system
offers more stable operation, durability and reliability. The Strong Binder
System with high cross-linking and abrasion-resistant characteristics achieves a
remarkable robustness of the magnetic layer, that can withstand more than tens
of thousands of passes between the head and the tape. This new binder system
also includes a lubrication system that helps attain a more stable operation and
smooth running under various environments.
