The HCR 1 rewinding machine is designed and manufactured for the rewinding of textile fibre for rope production. The machine enables the material to be rewound from the cross bobbin onto the winding spindle of the skein, its subsequent heat treatment and its rewinding onto the bobbin.

In the first step, the machine allows the material to be rewound from the cross bobbin onto the winding spindle of the skein. The wound material is removed from the spindle and its heat treatment is carried out to shrink the material. In a subsequent step, the material is threaded onto the smaller unwinding spindle of the skein from which it is subsequently unwound and cross wound back onto the bobbin.

For both winding directions, an accumulator is used to prevent damage to the equipment in the event of a jam / kink of the fibre. Both winding directions contain end-of-material detection and the machine stops if end-of-material is detected.

Basic machine equipment:

  • Winding segment of the skein
  • Winding segment of the winder
  • Accumulator with material reserve for stopping
  • Control panel
  • Control by small brakes or brake
  • Electro elements Lenze

Machine controls:

  • The skein motor is controlled using the Stop, Start and speed buttons, which is controlled with the use of a potentiometer
  • The winding motor is controlled using the Stop, Start and speed buttons, which is controlled with the use of a potentiometer

Stop and Reset error safety buttons

Stop ramp (longer stop time is used when stopping on pressing the stop button. At this stop, the fibre remains correctly stretched through the machine

o EMS ramp (shorter stop time is used when the Safety stop button is pressed. When pressed, the controlled stop is first held for 1-2 seconds and then the power to the drives is disconnected. The fibre will jump out of normal dragging or rewinding paths during this quick stop.
