In the method and apparatus for assembling a magnetic tape cartridge, a plurality of assembling stations, each of which includes an assembling robot 130 for assembling the respective parts of a magnetic tape cartridge 1, respectively comprise pallet delivery mechanism 135 capable of delivering sequentially a pallet 200 on which an upper cases 2a can be placed. The pallet 200 comprises front and rear reel brake hold mechanism 210, 220 respectively capable of holding front and rear reel brakes 50, 51 against the energizing forces of brake springs 12, 13 in such a manner that the front and rear reel brakes 50, 51 retreat from the installation area of the reel 3, lid spring hold mechanism 230 capable of holding the lid engaging portion 15a of a lid spring 15 in such a manner that the lid engaging portion 15a is not in engagement with a lid 30, reel hold mechanism 240 capable of holding a reel 3 on the upper case 2a side against the energizing force of a reel spring 8, and lower case hold mechanism 250 capable of holding a lower case 2b on the upper case 2a side. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain a magnetic tape cartridge having an excellent assembling accuracy with high productivity.
