Corresponds to the quality required for guide wires

• Compared to the 1-point method, no arbor (core metal) is required, so the trace of the coil inner diameter is greatly reduced.

• The rotary discharge shooter PR-1 that receives the optional long coil wire suppresses runout when manufacturing long coils, eliminates problems with the discharge method, and supports high-precision machining.

 

Supports automated production

Unlike the conventional winding production method, the automatic cutting ability machine after coiling enables continuous production of coils. This saves about 90% of labor in one day's work. In addition, the yield is improved because there is no extra waste material generated during production.

Specifications:

Coiling Mechanism

• A specialist design for ultra-thin wires, with a feed roller diameter of 16 mm and a wire guide length of 6 mm.

• The cut tool and coiling point areas have been strengthened to provide both stability and adjustability.

• Tools are attached using a standard mechanism for attaching wire guides with reference to the feed roller, and the newly developed pitch arbor unit can be moved up, down, left, and right to adjust the arbor position in relation to the wire guide.
