Abstract: The method and an apparatus provide for the automatic provision and transfer of a reserve lap (WR) from a reserve position (RP) to a working position (AP) in a machine (K1 to K3) for processing wound laps and for the automatic discharge of an empty tube (H) from the working position (AP). The conveying system (K, 4) is provided to convey wound laps (W) or empty tubes (H) individually or in groups between a lap-processing (K1 to K3) and a lap-forming machine (KV). The control unit (8) of the conveying system (K, 4) is connected with a central control unit (ST) which is connected with the control unit (21, 22, 23) of the respective lap-processing machine (K1 to K3), with a conveyor (T) in the lap-forming machine (Ky), as well as with the control unit (20) of the lap-forming machine (Ky), and a transfer device (58, 60, 61, 63) which can be controlled via the control unit (21,22,23) of the respective lap-processing machine (K1 to K3).
