DEVICE FOR APPLYING A CABLE ONTO A ROTATING SURFACE

摘要

PURPOSE: Provided is a device for applying a cable onto a rotating receiving surface, in particular for the manufacture of tires. CONSTITUTION: The device for applying at least one cable onto a rotating receiving surface having a linear surface speed V2, comprises: a body; at least one capstan rotatably mounted on the body to feed the cable in a feed direction at a linear speed V1; displacement means for receiving the cable from the capstan and displacing the cable transversely relative to the rotating receiving surface responsive to a magnitude of a difference between V1 and V2; positioning means for receiving the cable from the displacement means and positioning the cable on the receiving surface; and control means for controlling a transverse amplitude of the displacement directly by adjusting the speed V1 relative to the speed V2, wherein the amplitude is continuously variable during the positioning of the cable.
