Coiling with Collari
Coil winder mod AU180SPE, static
decoiler mod SV2 and inline lubricating
system mod SLF01 from Collari provide
a simple to use machine for winding of
normal or coated ductile wires, annealed
or zinc plated iron, copper or zinc
aluminium wires up to 5mm diameter.
The machine is equipped with electronic
wire-guide pitch adjustment, simply
by setting the desired pitch directly
on the special keyboard. This system
makes the machine extremely flexible
for winding any diameter of wire with
maximum precision. Winding stops when
the desired number of coiled wire layers
is reached. An automatic pneumatic
system extracts the finished bounded
coil from the winding drum and carries it
out for easy removal.
The coil winder is combined with Collari’s
unwinder-static decoiler mod SV2, easily
combined with all of Collari’s coil winder
models and with other equipment. It can
be adapted for using either big skeins, up
to 1,000kg or special or standard internal
baskets up to a maximum 1.5m height.
The system is suitable for metal wires
of 0.5 to 5mm diameter, and for speed
supply up to about 7m/s.

Team Meccanica
Rewinding, spooling and coiling
Team Meccanica has equipment for rewinding spools and coils of wire produced
by any type of wire drawing machine. Spoolers can have horizontal or vertical axes,
single or double spool supporting device and a manual or fully automatic handling
system. They will carry a single size of spool or, for more flexibility, several sizes of
spool within a preset range. Depending on the model, spool sizes range between
100mm and 3,000mm.
TeamMeccanica spoolers are
of a box-type construction of
welded steel sheets to give a
sturdy frame not subject to
vibration.
The spools are supported by
pneumatically or hydraulically
operated retractable pintles,
with a hydraulic safety lock-
ing system to prevent the
accidental release of pintles
while running.
The traversing system allows
precise adjustment of the
traversing width and pitch,
even while in motion.
Either an AC or DC motor can be used, with frequency control between 5kW
and 135kW. Winding speed is up to 35m/s, synchronised with the wire drawing
machine. The braking system is regenerative, with a pneumatic emergency brake,
and allows fully automatic braking without wire breaks.
Team Meccanica coilers are static or rotating, with vertical or horizontal
(goose-neck conveyor type) axis, and will collect any type of continuously
processed wire on tubular carriers.
The coiling capstan is made of forged and induction-hardened steel. Various
configurations can be adopted, according to the material and the production cycle,
such as an additional ceramic coating for low-carbon wires, pattern laying device,
drawing pass, coil compacting unit, or wire cooling by water circulation inside the
capstan and die.
Capstan sizes range between 300mm and 1,200mm. The motor can be AC or
DC with frequency control between 5kW to 135kW. Winding speed can be up
to 35m/s, synchronised with the connected wire drawing machine. As with the
spooler, the braking system is regenerative, with a pneumatic emergency brake,
and allows fully automatic braking without wire breaks. No special foundation work
is needed before installation.
