The invention relates to a method and a device which are capable of cross winding a coiler device of a pony roll waving machine through the method of drive. The invention includes a bobbin creel which rotatablely maintains the pony roll, an electrically driven thread-carrier which enables the thread rolled onto the pony roll to conduct reciprocation at the time of rolling, and a controlling device which is used in a drive device of the thread-carrier and capable of definitely adjusting the width of the reciprocation route as well as the acceleration of the thread-carrier. The invention is characterized in that the acceleration of the thread-carrier (7) relies on the with of the reciprocation route, wherein, the electrical drive device (8) of the thread-carrier (7) is controlled with the help of the controlling device (10) so that the greatest acceleration of the thread-carrier (7) is at a turning point (14) in an area of the profile (15) of the winding pony roll (3) during the reciprocation, namely the electric current for a motor is added in a short period of time, and the motor current is 3 to 5 times of the current under the thermal allowance of the drive device (8) for stable operation, with four times the most preferable. During a short reciprocation, the acceleration of the thread-carrier (7) reduces, wherein, the drive device (8) is added with the motor current within ashort period of time, and the motor current is 1.5 to 2.5 times of the current under the thermal allowance of the drive device (8) for stable operation, with 2 times the most preferable.
