Product
Summary
Coil Winders are used for production
winding of small coils of cable or conduit, generally under 1000' in
length. They can be operated individually or be remotely controlled as
auxiliary equipment in a process line.
Calmec's Coiling Stations are multi-head
machines that are used in a continuous line run. A pneumatic final length
cutter is used for cutting the end of a wound coil, while a cable clamp is used
to secure the product and to prevent unwinding. Clutches are used to
activate and deactivate the shaft drives, which are product tension controlled.
A digital ratio controlled traversing guide sheave subassembly ensures accurate
layering of product.
Key Features
-
Collapsible Heads
-
Calmec can supply a collapsible head
to suit the end product size required,
whether it is the drum or outside
diameter, or the width. All our
heads are width adjustable from 2"
-7 ", and are quick change removable
-
-
Traversing
-
On units where traversing is
required to achieve good lay
characteristics, a digital ratio
controller is used to provide
a consistent and accurate lay. The
operator need only input the product
diameter. Traverse speed is
synchronized to the incoming line
speed, and corrected through encoder
feedback.

Build Up Compensation
-
In some cases it is important to
maintain consistent product tension
during the coil winding process.
Calmec achieves this on its Coil
Winders by
proportionally adjusting the clutch
pressure on the shaft drive.
-
-
Multiple Drive Alternatives
-
Whether operated individually or speed
synchronized to a line process,
Calmec can supply both AC or DC drive
alternatives. In a
self-contained unit, the unit can
operate in either speed or torque
mode.

Reduced Maintenance
All the wear items on our collapsible heads
are hardened for longer life. As well, the head/shaft subassemblies are
easy removable. Our proportionally pressure adjusted slip clutches on our
automatic build-up drives reduce clutch wear.
