Pancake Winders
Simple operation Machine controls allow you to switch between manual and automatic operation, to change spindle direction and to switch between payout and take-up operation. If you have additional control requests, we typically add them as machine options. Speed and tension controls that meet your process requirements JCR offers several Speed and Tension control options for you to choose from. Our standard design is a product dancer with adjustable tension slide weight. The dancer automatically adjusts the spindle speed to match the speed of your process. We also offer Non-contact (touchless) loop control systems, like ultrasonic sensors, part/length count, capacitive sensors, or a speed input signal from your process. Paper interleaf capability For products with a layer of paper interleaf, we will add a paper spindle with its own speed and tension controls.
Turret Style
Time-tested designs Indexing take-ups operate with all spindles in the same vertical or horizontal index plane. When a reel is full, the machine indexes, and an empty reel moves into the fill position. Available in 3, 4, and 8 reel versions, these machines feature automatic reel transfer and various styles of product feeding. Options available include paper interleaf, overwind / underwind operation, and sample strip cut. Easy access for paper and product reel changes Our paper and product spindles are positioned for easy use by the operator. Our indexing models include easy access to all spindles from the front or side.
Heavy Duty
Heavy Duty Payout and Take-up Equipment is typically used when processing wide metal coils of 1,000 to 10,000 lbs. Coilmaster take-ups feature collapsible mandrel coil retention, programmable tension control, and an edge sensor/controller for precision alignment of your product. The standard design accommodates product widths up to 16", but as with all JCR products, custom designs are available.
