"Why Splice every 10 minutes when you can splice once
a day or less?" |
| |
 |
Material spooled on traverse winders
can be as diverse as nonwovens, films, tear strips, extruded materials,
composites, laminates, foams, pressure-sensitive tapes and even
flexible metals. |
| |
|
Traverse wound spools come in various shapes and sizes. |
| |
|
Winding patterns include level, taper, reverse taper, magnum and
index. |
| |
|
Slit widths are from .032" to 8". |
| |
|
Lengths can go from 25 feet to 25 miles. |
| |
|
A single wound spool can weigh up to 2000lbs. |

 |
- Spool winding pattern |
A material's unique properties require different spool configurations.
IMC's Smartwinder® software stores traverse adjustments for pitch,
stroke length and end dwell allowing for optimum winding patterns
for a particular product.
|
- Spool Density |
The lay-on contact, pitch & the rewind tension for a particular
material create spool density.
|
- Tension Control |
Tension is the most critical factor in determining spool appearance
and quality. IMC Dancer Tension Controller provides unequaled programmable
tension control.
|
| |
| These three factors all work together to produce the characteristics of
"The Perfect Spool"
- accurate tension and traverse positioning maintained from core to full
diameter |
