An automated clip application system for fitting clips in an automotive assembly line includes a cassette receiving station 22 receiving at least one cassette 11 preloaded with a plurality of clips 1 arranged in the same orientation. A dispensing opening dispenses clips 1 from cassette 11 one at a time, and a robotic member is programmed to pick up clips 1, one at a time, after they have been dispensed from the dispensing opening. The robotic member then fastens each clip in position in an automotive assembly. A grabber 21 may receive each clip so it can be picked up by the robotic member. Cassette receiving station 22 may receive a plurality of cassettes 11 in a vertical stack, and may have an empty cassette stacking section. Also provided is a clip sorting and loading system and a method of supplying and fitting clips.
