Product Description The filament-winding machine is powered & controlled by Siemens 840 D control system. Pressure vessels/pipes with diameter ranging from 50 mm -4.00 mts can be wound on the system. Length of the job being wound can vary from 1.00 mts - 12.00 mts While the first spindle can wind diameters ranging from 50 mm -1500 mm at high rotational speed, the second spindle can rotate diameters up to 4.00 mts at relatively slower speeds. The second spindle can hold component and mandrel weight up to 6.00 tonnes. The unique design of the cross axis allows the winding pattern to be unaltered from 50 mm -4.00 mts dia. The main filament winding carriage feeding the impregnated glass fibre moves at a very high speed of 60 mts per minute. The creel stand for fibreglass rovings accommodates 24 spools and has adjustable mechanical tensioning device at its spool. The tension can be accurately controlled for each roving. The drum type resin bath with micrometric adjusting doctor s blade can control resin pick-up accurately. Top wetting rollers assure proper wetting of rovings and squeeze blades remove excess resin. A temperature controller and a hot water pump controls the resin bath temperature within? 20 C enhancing the pot life of epoxy resins. The CNC control system is enclosed in a fully sealed panel, which has a piggyback air conditioner and can work in any environment. The multi-axis filament winding system is equipped with CADWIND software to facilitate various design configurations of composite parts.
