A package removal device is for removing a package (5) from a component band (1) to expose a carrier band (2). The package removal device includes a stand (10), a first scrolling unit includes a first gear (52), and a second scrolling unit includes a second gear (85). The stand includes a platform (12) with an import end (14a) and an export end (14b). The export end includes a locating gear (18) mounted thereon, a first exit (24), and a second exit (22). The component band is separated into the package and the carrier band in the export end. The first gear meshes with the second gear to output the package from the first exit. The locating gear engages the carrier band to output the carrier band from the second exit.
