ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for winding up a magnetic tape in a cassette comprises first and second conveyance devices. The first conveyance device receives a cassette case, in which magnetic tape has not yet been wound up, at a receiving position, conveys the cassette case to a wind-up waiting position, at which said first conveyance means device provides the cassette case to the second conveyance device, and returns to the receiving position in order to receive a new cassette case in which magnetic tape has not yet been wound up. The second conveyance device conveys the cassette case to a wind-up position at which a magnetic tape is wound up in the cassette case. The second conveyance device then conveys the cassette case, in which the magnetic tape has been wound up, to the wind-up waiting position. Thereafter, the first conveyance device conveys the new cassette case, in which magnetic tape has not yet been wound up, to the wind-up waiting position and simultaneously pushes the previous cassette case out of the second conveyance device. Alternatively, the previous cassette case may be conveyed out of the second conveyance device due to gravity slightly before the new cassette case is conveyed to the wind-up waiting position.
