ABSTRACT:
A winding machine for winding wire includes a spindle on which a spool is mounted, and a reciprocating traverse for guiding an advancing wire onto the spool. The motion of the traverse is controlled by a programmable motion controller. A cam profile is stored in the controller's memory which defines the relationship between the traverse position and the angular position of the spindle. A periodic rotation signal is generated indicative of the angular position of the spindle. In response to each periodic rotation signal, the programmable controller determines the corresponding position of the traverse as set forth in the cam profile and produces a control signal which causes the traverse to move to the commanded position. Gear ratios between the spindle motor and traverse motor are supported.
