ABSTRACT:
A method of and apparatus for automatically coiling predetermined lengths of multi-conductor electrical cable and packaging individually wound coils of cable are disclosed. A plurality of monitoring devices are arranged along the cable feed path to a coiling machine for continuously monitoring a number of selected parameters of the cable for defects and for generating fault signal outputs indicative of a predetermined variation from a standard value of the selected parameters. Successively wound coils are transferred from the coiling machine to a packaging machine where they are individually packaged, sealed and discharged. The fault signal outputs generated by the monitoring devices are transmitted to the packaging machine to automatically and positively identify a package containing a defective coil by disabling the package sealing mechanism. An electrical circuit is provided for discriminating between faults occurring in a coil being wound and faults occurring in a next successive coil to be wound.
