ABSTRACT:
A tape loading apparatus and method wherein a cassette previously loaded with waste tape is engaged in a work station. A trailing section of the waste tape is extracted from a front opening of the cassette together with a second portion of a leader spliced thereto. The second portion of the leader is separated from the waste tape which is then connected to a previously discarded tape length which is susceptible of engagement with a winding fork upon the action of which all waste tape is extracted from the cassette. When extraction is over, a first portion of the leader is separated from the extracted waste tape and then spliced to a new use tape to be loaded into the cassette.
