A control device that moves and positions number one and number two takeup members at number one and number two aperture forming positions until the number one and number two cutting points of number one and number two tapes are positioned at number one and number two cutting positions. By doing this, number one and number two unnecessary sections from number one and number two tapes can be processed by reliably being taken into number one and number two apertures of number one and number two takeup members. Then, after cutting number one and number two unnecessary sections, number one and number two takeup members are moved to number one and number two conveyance positions. By doing this, number one and number two tapes can be smoothly conveyed along number one and number two movable conveyance paths of number one and number two takeup members to a splicing position.
