Abstract (en)

A tool to bundle a plurality of elongate articles using a weldable tape includes a guide block, a motor assembly, and a drive block. The motor assembly can include a motor and a gear train. The drive block can include a first bracket, a second bracket, a first wheel assembly, a second wheel assembly, and a spring element. The drive block can connect to the gear train of the motor assembly using a slot and tooth arrangement. A rotation of the motor can cause a rotation of the first wheel assembly and the second wheel assembly of the drive block to feed the weldable tape through the tool.
