Mylar Numatic Tap

Punched tape or perforated paper (or Mylar) tape is a form of data storage, consisting of a long strip of paper (or Mylar) in which holes are punched to store data. Now effectively obsolete, it was widely used during much of the twentieth century for teleprinter communication, for input to computers of the 1950s and 1960s, and later as a storage medium for minicomputers and CNC machine tools.
