5. The material strip processing system according to claim 4 , wherein each first support plate engages the reel closest to the first support plate during coiling of the material strip, so as to drive the empty reel in the material strip collection position to rotate and coil the material strip on the empty reel.

6. The material strip processing system according to claim 5 , wherein the material strip collection mechanism further includes a first driving device driving one of the first arm and the second arm at the material strip collection position and/or the first support plate on it to rotate, so that the empty reel at the material strip collection position is driven to rotate and the material strip is coiled on the empty reel.

7. The material strip processing system according to claim 5 , wherein the material strip collection mechanism further includes a rotatable second support plate positioned opposite to the first support plate on one of the first arm and the second arm in the material strip collection position.

8. The material strip processing system according to claim 7 , wherein the rotatable second support plate presses the reel held by the one of the first arm and the second arm in the material strip collection position against the first support plate during the coiling of the material strip.

9. The material strip processing system according to claim 8 , wherein the material strip collection mechanism further includes a second driving device, the second driving device driving the second support plate to rotate at a rotation speed corresponding to the feed speed of the material strip during the coiling of the material strip.

10. The material strip processing system according to claim 9 , wherein the material strip collection mechanism further includes a support on which the second driving device and the second support plate are mounted.

11. The material strip processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the reel bracket is movably mounted on a guide mechanism of the material strip collection mechanism.

12. The material strip processing system according to claim 11 , wherein the guide mechanism includes a guide rail and a third driving device driving the reel bracket to move along the guide rail.

13. The material strip processing system according to claim 1 , further comprising a reel replacement system adapted to unload the full reel held by one of the first arm and the second arm in the standby position and load a new empty reel on the one arm in the standby position.

14. The material strip processing system according to claim 13 , wherein the reel replacement system includes a movable carrier and a robot operation arm mounted on the movable carrier and configured to replace the reel.

15. The material strip processing system according to claim 14 , wherein the movable carrier includes an autonomous guided vehicle guiding movement between a plurality of material strip processing systems in a workplace.

16. The material strip processing system according to claim 14 , wherein the movable carrier includes a space sized for storing the empty reel and the full reel.

17. A material strip processing system, comprising:

a material strip collection mechanism coiling a material strip on a reel, including:

a vertically positioned reel bracket rotatable about a vertical axis between a first configuration and a second configuration, and having:

a first arm holding the reel and rotatable to drive the reel and coil the material strip on the reel; and

a second arm opposite to the first arm, the second arm holding the reel and rotatable to drive the reel and coil the material strip on the reel,

with the reel bracket in the first configuration, the first arm is in a material strip collection position to allow the material strip to be coiled on each empty reel held by the first arm to form a full reel, while the second arm is in a standby position to allow the full reel held by the second arm to be replaced with a new empty reel; and

with the reel bracket in the second configuration, the second arm is in the material strip collection position to allow the material strip to be coiled on each empty reel held by the second arm to form a new full reel, while the first arm is in the standby position to allow the full reel held by the first arm to be replaced with a new empty reel; and

a material strip buffer mechanism arranged upstream of the material strip collection mechanism along a feed direction of the material strip for buffering a predetermined length of material strip.

18. The material strip processing system according to claim 17 , wherein the material strip buffer mechanism includes a frame, a first fixed roller and a second fixed roller installed on the frame.

19. The material strip processing system according to claim 18 , wherein the material strip buffer mechanism further includes a movable roller located between the first fixed roller and the second fixed roller.
