An insertion method for introducing at least one stamping foil 410 into a foil drive system 440 of a stamping machine 1, wherein the drive system advances each foil 410 in a determined feed path. The method includes the steps of unwinding an end portion of each foil 410 over a given length, turning each end portion back on itself to constitute the free strand 413 of an open loop 414, unwinding each free strand 413 along the feed path by pulling the corresponding foil 410 from the inside of its loop 414, while partially restraining each free strand 413 as it deploys along the feed path.
