ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for repairing a defective portion of tape wound onto a tape cassette. The tape is pulled out of the cassette and held by a stationary and movable table such that the defective portion is on the part held by the stationary table. The tape is cut between the tables. A second movable table holding an end of a disposal tape replaces the first movable table and the disposal tape is spliced to the tape with the defect. The defect is wound toward the disposal reel and then cut. The good remaining tape pieces on the stationary and first movable tables are then spliced together.
