Abstract

A preassembled film cartridge is magnetically gripped by an arm and pivotally delivered between chucks which are moved towards each other to grip the ends of the cartridge spool. A stand mounting chucks is then moved under the cartridge, and the chucks pinch the slotted shell thereof to release the end cap, whereafter the stand is withdrawn to expose the gripped spool. The end of a precut film strip is then inserted in the aligned spool slot, and the spool is rotated to wind the film thereon. The stand is then moved back under the spool, carrying with it the shell and end cap, whereafter a capper engages the end cap and completes the cartridge reassembly. The chucks release the shell, the stand is again withdrawn, an arm magnetically engages the loaded cartridge, and the chucks release the spool, whereafter the cartridge is pivotally removed from the apparatus by the arm.
