A reel handling machine includes first and second re-reeling assemblies coupled to a frame. The re-reeling assemblies each include a reel mount supporting a first reel and a re-reel mount supporting a second reel. The re-reeling assemblies operated to unwind a product strip from the first reel and rewind the product strip on the second reel. The reel handling machine includes a reel manipulator positioned proximate to the re-reeling assemblies configured to automatically remove the second reel from the re-reel mount after the product strip is rewound on the second reel and move the second reel to a remote location.

An automatic replacement apparatus for a feed material includes a discharge unit discharging a feed material to the outside, a pair of feed units disposed to be adjacent to the discharge unit and having a feed roll around which the feed material is wound, and a pair of material joint units respectively provided in the pair of feed units connecting a front end of a first feed material waiting in a first feed unit, one of the pair of feed units, and an end of a second feed material being transferred from a second feed unit, the other of the pair of feed units, to the discharge unit in a butt joint manner.

A sheet delivery system includes: an end section detector which detects a position of an end section of a sheet; an operation robot which holds the end section of the sheet and which conveys the end section of the sheet to a joining unit; a roll driving motor which rotationally drives the standby-side original material roll around a central axis thereof; and a suction roller which is capable of coming into rolling contact with an outer peripheral surface of the standby-side original material roll, and which includes an outer peripheral surface capable of suctioning the end section of the sheet in order to separate the end section of the sheet from the standby-side original material roll. The end section detector is attached at a position which enables detection of the end section of the sheet separated from the standby-side original material roll by the suction roller.
