A high-hardness permalloy head is used for the read / write head, and a double-gap ferrite head is used for the erase head.
In addition to the capstan motor, a full-logic 2-motor system with a dedicated DC reel motor has been adopted to realize highly stable tape travel and to improve operability by accurately controlling the operation with a microcomputer.
