A loading device for supplying cord strips, intended for the belt or body of a tire, to a tire assembly drum. The loading device is comprised of a plurality of guide units displaceably mounted for longitudinal movement relative to the tire assembly drum. Each guide unit includes devices for storing a cord strip and a backing strip, for deflecting, for initially separating the cord strip from the backing strip, for final separation and removal of the cord strip from the backing strip, for winding up the backing strip, for guiding the cord strip in a short compensating loop and for delivering the cord strip to the tire assembly drum. The guide units also contain driving mechanisms for each of the above devices. The compensating loop device is rigidly mounted between the separating device and the delivering device.
