An automatic reel changer ( 10 ) for a tape-and-reel handler is formed to automatically insert a carrier tape ( 15 ) from the tape-and-reel handler into an empty receiving reel ( 80 ), wind the carrier tape ( 15 ) onto the receiving reel ( 80 ), and apply a securing device to keep the carrier tape ( 15 ) fixedly attached to the receiving reel ( 80 ). The automatic reel changer ( 10 ) then removes the full receiving reel ( 80 ) and replaces it with another empty receiving reel ( 81 ) and continues the process.
