Abstract
Abstract A splicing assembly for cutting and splicing magnetic tape to leaders. The assembly consists of first and second splicing blocks. The first block has two tape-receiving grooves and the second block has one tape-receiving groove. Each groove is adapted to hold a tape in place by suction. The assembly also includes a knife unit operative to sever a tape that extends from one block to the other, and means are provided for moving one block relative to the other so as to selectively align either of the two grooves of the first block with the single groove of the second block. A splicing tape dispenser is used to splice a tape on one block to a tape on the other block.
