<p>A multistrand winding apparatus has a strand guide fixed to a cam follower of a traverse cam for winding a strand package on a winding collect. To improve the quality of the strand package, the strand guide is maintained at a spacing from the periphery of the strand package during the winding operation while maintaining an improved package edge weave, and a winding program stored in a programmable memory is employed for controlling the displacement of the strand guide away from the winding collect as the winding of the strand package proceeds. For simultaneously winding a plurality of strand packages, a corresponding plurality of coaxial traverse cams may reciprocate respective strand guides while being likewise displaced from the winding collect. The winding program is also used to control the speed of the winding collect and the traverse cam or cams.</p> |
