CONTINUOUS WINDER

摘要

A turret winder (10) for winding web material (40) on spindle-supported cores (32) has a turret (20) which is moveable into three indexing positions (A, B, C), one of which is a web transfer, cutting and winding station (B), and another of which is a winding completion station (C). Frames (12, 13) adjacent to the turret (20) support carriages (65, 70) which support a secondary lay-on roll (80). The carriages (65, 70) include a primary carriage (65) which is moveable vertically with respect to the turret (20) and a lay-on roll carriage (70) which is moveable horizontally with respect to the primary carriage (65). The lay-on roll carriage (70) has an arm (85) which is engaged by the turret (20) during movement of the spindle (29) between the above two positions so that arcuate movement of the spindle (29) is translated to movement of the lay-on roll carriage (70) in such a manner that the lay-on roll (80) accurately follows the movement as the building roll (55) moves to the winding completion station (C).
