The machine has 4 winding heads. Sleeve with different width and the same thickness may be operated on each of the heads. On each spindle may by winding parallel two sleeves. Each single head may be disengaged.

The machine is equipped with:

• microprocessor control system
• drive motor electronic control equipped with frequency changer (inverter)
• pneumatic operating systems

Thus a fully automatic process is assured as well as single automatic operations are programmed in the most adequate way. The machine operation consists in introducing sleeve on winding spindles and taking out containers with ready-wound sleeve hanks.

Following operations are covered by automatic control:

• fixing sleeve end at the beginning of the winding operation
• stopping the winding operation when a programmed sleeve length is reached
• cutting off sleeve
• taking off hank from spindle
• placing hank in storage container at the end of conveyor

Technical solutions applied in the machine provide in consequence for:

• big operational capacity
• tape of the same length on each outlet
