In a film positioning system and method thereof, stable film positioning is accomplished. In the present invention, when a film is fed to a stop position by driving first feeding mechanism and second feeding mechanism synchronizing with each other and then the stop position is determined with the first feeding mechanism or the second feeding mechanism, a fixed tension is applied to the film by the other feeding mechanism.

Film positioning system and method thereof

In a tape loading device in which a tape is drawn from a mounted tape cassette and loaded on a tape path which lies in front of the mounted tape cassette, a big capstan which is arranged in front of the mounted tape cassette is inserted into a space formed between the mounted tape cassette and a portion of the tape which has been loaded on the tape path, from a position where the big capstan does not interfere with the tape which is moved to the tape path, so that it is possible to make the diameter and length of the capstan large.
