Intuitive Touch Software for Winding Machines – Powerful & Versatile

The user interface was specially developed for intuitive and efficient touch operation on winding machines.

In addition to essential functions such as Open, Save, Copy, Delete, Edit, and Print winding programs, the software offers numerous advanced features:

  • Integrated language switch for international use
  • Extensive configuration options
  • Service-relevant diagnostic tools
  • Tools for system optimization and machine customization

Thanks to its clearly structured interface, the software supports both machine operators in daily production and technical staff during machine configuration and customization.

This interface allows users to open winding programs from various storage sources: internal iSATA drive, USB stick, network drive (FTP server), or USB floppy disk drive. As the number of stored programs increases over time, a built-in search function helps streamline selection. By entering the first three characters, the program list is automatically filtered to show relevant matches. Programs can also be saved to all of the above storage media, internal iSATA drive, USB stick, network (FTP), and floppy disk drive.

🔧 Dynamic Worklines – RWC 011-1S / 2S

The following diagram illustrates the relationship between the winding radius and the resulting wire tension force under various operating conditions of the RWC 011-1S / 2S winding machine.

As the winding radius increases – meaning the spool diameter becomes larger – the torque at the winding axis decreases. The physical principle is simple:

Power = Torque × Speed

Since machine power is typically constant, increasing the speed reduces the available torque – and thus the transferable wire tension force.

⚙️ Timing Belt Configurations

The machine features an interchangeable timing belt system offering five transmission ratios – from high torque at low speeds to high-speed operation with reduced torque:

Set Speed (rpm) Torque (Nm) Description
0 750 7.6 Maximum torque – ideal for large spools and high tension
1 1500 3.8 Balanced – good compromise between torque and speed
2 3000 1.9 Direct drive 1:1 – nominal speed of the AC servo motor
3 6000 0.95 High speed – suitable for lighter materials
4 12000 0.475 High-speed mode – for small spools and fine wire

📈 Chart Interpretation

  • Colored lines represent wire tension [N] as a function of winding radius [mm].
  • The left Y-axis is logarithmic for better visibility of lower forces.
  • The right Y-axis shows typical wire diameters [mm] for real-world reference.
  • The higher the gear set (e.g., Set 4), the lower the torque – ideal for fine wires at high speed.

🧩 Practical Use

This chart helps determine the ideal timing belt setup based on:

  • The type of wire (fine vs. thick)
  • The required tension range
  • The desired winding speed
  • The spool diameter / winding radius

This enables an optimized compromise between force, speed, and material care tailored to your application.

🔎 Note: For the RWC 011-2S with two spindles, the effective torque per spindle is halved. The actual wire tension also depends on the configured wire brake and may vary accordingly.
