Abstract
A reel changing device which includes at least two reel holders, where each reel holder is for holding a reel of insulation material, and a support member to which each reel holder is rotatably mounted is provided. The support member is movable so that each reel holder can be positioned to provide insulation material to the insulating machine. In one embodiment of the invention, the support member is rotatable about an axis to provide insulation material to the insulating machine. In another embodiment of the invention, the support member is linearly movable to provide insulation material to the insulating machine. The reel changing device of the present invention can be incorporated into a system for expeditiously providing insulation material to an insulating machine.
