ABSTRACT:
A helical bundle of tubes is fabricated with a carousel-type machine, preferably rotating about a vertical axis. Spools of coil tubing are mounted on radial beams extending from a central rotating hub, and are indexed to maintain the axes of the spools in a constant direction. In the preferred vertical rotating axis configuration, the tubes are pulled off the spools by an overhead capstan, and the finished bundle is deposited on a take-up reel. A preferred way of indexing the spools uses chains passing around equal size sprockets attached to the vertical support shafts with at least one of the chains passing around a stationary central sprocket.
