"Capstan Alignment Collars for the MTR90's work great,
never thought I could achieve such a perfect tape path! Thanks!"

"After spending countless hours and over $2,500.00, with a certain company in San Francisco, our MTR-90's tape path was still far from perfect and I was frustrated. I discovered the Capstan Alignment Collar at the PrecisionMotorWorks website and for a mere $375.00, I purchased and installed the CAC and "TONE DANCE" is gone.
Finally a company made sense... A must have for "the perfectionist".

"Jeff -
I installed the EMC ATR-100 heads that we bought from you on the ATR that we bought from an eBay seller and while I did have several problems with his machine your heads were perfect. This is our first set of EMC heads and I am very pleased with the results......

Head Alignment Reference flat
|
|
| Ultra-Precision machinist's parallel. Made in the USA from high quality, thru hardened tool steel and flat ground on 4 sides. For gauging & setting tape path & head alignment.
A must for all transport alignment.
Cautionary note: metal laminated heads are relatively soft, so before alignment check, it is wise to cover the head gap with a strip of 1/4" or 1/2" splicing tape only. This will reduce the possibility of any surface damge. Also, be sure to demagnetize the bar before each use. When completed, clean (with HR&R) and demagnetize the heads.
