The invention relates to a method of automatically correcting errors in a winding station of a winding machine and a winding station for operating the method. The winding station comprises a circular magazine mounted in a rotatable manner and having a receiving slot for storing a feed package; an intermediate station arranged below the circular magazine for temporarily storing the feed package; a feed table which is mounted so as to be rotatable about a pivot axis at a limited angle and which can adjust between a rest position fixing the feed package in the intermediate station and a delivery position for moving the feed package to an unwinding position; a bobbin receiving device arranged in a region of the unwinding position and for fixing the feed package in the unwinding position during the rewinding process; and a bobbin ejector by means of which a bobbin of the unwound feed package is ejected.
