Abstract

The preceding web (29) on the one hand and the new web on the other hand are clamped and from the preceding web and from the new web a commencement piece and an end piece are separated. The thus formed ends are positioned next to each other in a common plane for connection and application of the tape. To form the commencement piece of the new web, a closed outer casing of a new bobbin and a closed outer layer of a new web are separated in an axial direction so that at least a free web leg of the new web hangs freely by its own weight, the web leg is secured and a commencement piece of the new bobbin (30) is drawn away.
