ABSTRACT:
A method of feeding coiled line to an operation at a rate matching that at which the operation can accommodate the line, including the steps of situating a lead coil of the line on a spiral table, sensing the diameter of the lead coil on the table, and rotating the coiled line to pay off line to the operation, the rotating being increased or decreased in response to decreases or increases in the lead coil diameter sensed in the step of sensing, wherein the improvement comprises turning the spiral table against the lead coil to situate the lead coil on the spiral table.
An apparatus including a spiral table and means for sensing the diameter of a lead coil on the table, wherein the improvement comprises means for rotating the table about its axis.
