ABSTRACT:
The invention proposes an apparatus (100) for winding a cable-like material (200), having a winding arrangement (150), a first gripping arrangement (130), for linearly advancing the leading end of the cable-like material (200) and for transferring the same to the winding arrangement (150), and a second gripping arrangement (140), for receiving the abovementioned leading end of the cable-like material from the winding arrangement (150) and for moving this leading end linearly away from the winding arrangement (150). It is possible for the first gripping arrangement (130) to grip the trailing end of the cable-like material (200) and, in conjunction with the second gripping arrangement, even it out to a predetermined difference between the ends. In specific configurations, the winding arrangement (150) has a coil gripper (154), with which the winding operation can be carried out on a winding container (152). The winding arrangement (150) comprises means (180, 182, 184, 186) which allows the coil to be clamped firmly and released. The invention also proposes a corresponding process.
