ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for engaging a reel spool with a Pope reel on a web winding machine. Primary forks lower a new reel spool into nip contact with the Pope reel. After being brought into nip contact, the reel spool is supported by the Pope reel and support plates mounted on the primary forks. As the primary forks continue to lower the reel spool, the contact area between the supporting plates and reel spool changes so as to maintain a substantially constant pressure between the reel spool and Pope reel. The primary forks lower and transfer the reel spool onto reel tracks. The primary forks are then repositioned to receive the next reel spool.
