Abstract:
A winding machine which can move back and forth on guide rails for winding strand-shaped winding material includes a frame and a spool, the spool being rotatably mounted on a vertical spindle sleeve arm. A spool speed detection meter for detecting the speed of rotation of the spool and a measuring device for detecting the arrival speed of the winding material are provided on a stationary strand guide. A computer compares the speed of rotation of the spool and the arrival speed of the winding material, and upon a sudden change in the ratio of both these measured variables effects a reverse movement of the feed drive which moves the winding machine.
Abstract:
A spool apparatus includes a first flange with a first layer of conformable material defining an inner face of the first flange and a second flange with a second layer of conformable material defining an inner face of the second flange. Methods are also provided where a first end winding of a first layer of windings is pressed into the inner face of the first flange such that the first layer of conformable material of the first flange conforms the inner face of the first flange into a shape of a circumferential surface portion of the first end winding.

Abstract:
A control device for obtaining a uniform or even winding is provided for a winding machine for winding strand-shaped winding material, and includes an electrical scanning device which detects the transition from a winding layer into a next higher winding layer by detecting the step that is formed during such transition. The scanning device does not make physical contact with the winding layer but relies on detection information furnished by opto-electrical or acousto-electrical sensing elements. This information is used to control the reversing of movement of a feed drive which effects the relative reciprocating traversing movement between the spool and a strand guide.
