Special coil
winding line
Upon a specific request from Prysmian of Aberdare UK (formerly Pirelli), PS Costruzioni
engineers have designed and manufactured a special packaging line: the automatic coil
winding machine, model PS 200/8-2.
This line is unique because it can wind up short length coils (5, 10, 15 and 25m) with the
following dimensions:
Maximum outer diameter: 230mm •
Inner diameter: 110mm or according to the customer’s requirements •
Adjustable height from 30mm to 110mm •
The standard PS 200/8-2 comprises units such as a 1,800mm driven portal payoff stand,
a vertical dancer, an electronic control cabinet, as well as a meter-counter group, a
coiling head, a diametric strapping unit, a thermo-shrinking tunnel, a film drilling
machine and automatic perimetral taping unit and two labelling machines.
The perimetral taping machine is designed to automatically apply adhesive tape onto
the coil outer diameter thus making the final packaging more presentable. Company
details such as the company name, address and website URL can be shown on this tape
as well as the cable characteristics.
The film drilling machine, located at the exit of the tunnel, can drill both sides of the
shrink-wrapped coil simultaneously, thus producing a circular drilling and a hole to
enable the customer to easily pull the end of the cable through.
Moreover, by pressing the film-drilled area, the end-user can have a shrink-wrapped coil
with a central hole and a small hole to pull the end of the cable.
These holes, on the shrink-wrapped coil, also enable the customer to shelve the coils
accordingly.
