Semi-Automatic Cable Coiling Machine with Automatic Level Winding WM-4817

›

The WM-4817 is a 40 kg benchtop cable coiler that winds finished cords onto a collapsible flanged reel and lays every turn side by side by itself, so the coil comes off flat instead of tangled. It handles cable up to 13 mm diameter, a stated maximum cable width of 190 mm and coils up to 260 mm diameter, spinning at up to 999 rpm on 375 W. Winding speed, turn count, cable diameter, traverse width and start position are typed on the English touch screen, and a pneumatic flange releases the finished coil.

Specifications

Key features

• Automatic level winding — the traverse arm walks the cable across the reel turn by turn, so the finished coil is flat and pays out without knotting
• Cable diameter and traverse width are entered on screen, and the traverse pitch follows them — no mechanical cam to swap when the cord changes
• Winding speed, number of turns, start position and end delay all live on the same English winding-parameter page
• Second screen holds the machine behaviour — AUTO or manual action mode, cylinder delay, run-up acceleration and the slow speed used for the last turns
• Pneumatic cylinder retracts the flange so the finished coil slides off the mandrel without being pulled out of shape
• Collapsible petal flanges adjust the coil face, and the whole head sits on a 40 kg benchtop frame that two people can move
• Free sample test — send us your cable, we wind your coil size on this machine and send you the video before you order

What it processes

• Coiling AC power cords and DC power cords before bagging
• Data cables, video cables and high-definition transmission cables up to 13 mm diameter
• Cord sets and assemblies that must arrive at the packing bench already flat-coiled
• Benchtop coiling stations that need level winding without the footprint of a floor-standing coiler

Suited for: benchtop coiling of finished cords and transmission cables up to 13 mm diameter — AC and DC power cords, data, video and HD cable — where the coil has to come off flat and evenly wound, up to 260 mm coil diameter. Not suited for: cable thicker than 13 mm or coils that must be built to a measured length — use the WM-4810 automatic wire coiling machine with meter counter (0.5–16 mm wire, coil inner diameter 30–350 mm, 25 mm counting tolerance). Coils that must leave the machine already bundled belong on the WM-4813 meter counting coil winding and tying machine (1–8 mm wire, bundle Ø 18–65 mm), or tie this machine’s coils afterwards on the WM-4807 semi-automatic winding and twist tie machine (bundle Ø 5–35 mm).

Level winding is the whole argument for this machine. A plain spooler drops turn on top of turn and the coil comes off as a spring that fights the packer; here the guide arm steps across the reel at the pitch your entered cable diameter implies, so each turn lands beside the last one. The result is a coil with a flat face that can be bagged, boxed and unwound by the end customer without a knot — and because the pitch is a screen value rather than a cam, switching from a 3 mm data cable to a 10 mm power cord is a number change, not a tooling change.

The rest of the machine is built around getting the coil off intact. The mandrel carries collapsible petal flanges that set the coil face, the machine drops to its slow speed for the last turns so the tail does not whip, and the air cylinder pulls the flange back on the delay you set — the coil slides off the hub instead of being wrestled over a fixed rim. At 40 kg and 600 × 400 × 450 mm it belongs on the bench next to the cutting or testing station, not in its own floor space.

Send us 20–30 meters of your actual cable together with the coil diameter and coil width you ship. Jacket stiffness and cable memory decide how tight the level winding has to be set, so we wind your material on this machine and send the video before you commit.
