Three techniques are combined in the Tera-Angstrom mechanism developed by Imation. The uniformity and smooth surface of Imation LTO-4 tape media improves the track and bit density that ensures grater capacities. Smoothness of tape surface is achieved at Angstrom level by utilizing the coating and formulation process by Imation.
Tera
Angstrom technique is used in those Imation LTO tapes that offer 400GB or more
recording capacities. Tera Angstrom enhances the recording ability to
terabytes. If DVD movies continuously run for 16 days, then it will be
equivalent to one terabyte. 1000 GB is equal to 1 TB. The driving force behind
the development of the tape cartridges with capacity of terabytes is the
increasing demand of the users for store-intensive applications like data
archiving, data miming and data backup. This ranges from financial and
geo-physics to government and broadcast. Order Imation LTO tapes at cheapest

Tera
Angstrom Technology offers numerous advantages in the Imation LTO 4 and LTO 3 tape format. It
increases track and bit density to enhance the recording ability and
performance. Consistent strength of signals and higher SNR in Imation LTO-4
(part number 26592 and 26596) tape accelerates data processing and enhances
reliability. The uniformity and smooth surface of Imation LTO-4 tape media
improves the track and bit density that ensures grater capacities. Smoothness
of tape surface is achieved at Angstrom level by utilizing the coating and
formulation process by Imation. Uniformity of tape surface in Imation LTO 4
format is ensured by the Tera-Angstrom technology which as a result produces
higher SNR. Both these features help in data reading accuracy.
Imation
makes sure that high quality standard is maintained throughout the
manufacturing processes of Imation LTO ultrium backup tapes. Three techniques
are combined in the Tera-Angstrom mechanism developed by Imation. These three
processes are used during the manufacturing of Imation ultrium to produce high
quality, durable and robust LTO tape media products. Uniform magnetic layer is
created in the Impingement process. During this technique, the particles are
separated using impingement jets into nanometer sized magnetic particles. These
small sized particles are uniformly distributed to create smooth tape surface.
Second phase of Tera-Angstrom is “quick drying” process. Magnetic coils and low
air velocity are used in this process that result in ultra precise orientation
of magnetic particles. The magnetic particles are oriented precisely and the
coating disturbances are eliminated in the Imation LTO-4 tape format.
Therefore, the storage capacity and bit-density are heightened in the Imation LTO 4 tape 26596.
The
final process of Tera-Angstrom is the In-line calendering. During this process,
the tape surface is compressed by a series of rollers to make ultra smooth
surface. Angstrom units are used to measure the smoothness of tape surface. One
Angstrom is equivalent to 1/10th of a nano-meter. Thickness of a single paper
sheet is approx. 1 million Angstrom. The uniformity and smooth surface of
Imation LTO-4 tape media improves the track and bit density that ensures grater
capacities. Smoothness of tape surface is achieved at Angstrom level by
utilizing the coating and formulation process by Imation. Through this
technology, needle shaped uniform particles having size of nanometer are
produced. Imation LTO 4 tape technology delivers outstanding results and
superior performance that help in increasing the efficiency of the
organizations.
