Abstract: A portable mechatronic tape gun for the automatic taping of a single spot on a wire harness by a user. A user places the drum of a mechatronic taping gun over a wire harness and actuates an activation button on a handle. The actuation of the activation button causes a rotational movement in the drum. The rotational movement of the drum causes tape to be cut and rolled around the wire harness. The user then removes the mechatronic taping gun from the harness, and moves to a different spot on the wire harness for additional taping of the wire harness.
