Spools, reels & pre-packaging systems

Automatic Range

Windak has a wide range of spool and reel packaging machine solutions, such as SW6, SW6-DL, AR18, AR18-DL and the newest model AR24. SW6 and AR18 are fully automatic packaging machines, for in-line or off-line packaging and palletising of wire, cable and other flexible products onto spools or reels. Spools are automatically loaded and unloaded from the spooling head. The outer end is secured with stretch wrap. All operational parameters and mechanical settings are recipe controlled in order to reduce time between product and spool changeovers.

These machines can be single lift (SW6, AR18) or dual lift (SW6-DL, AR18-DL) and have labelling, boxing and palletising as options. SW6 spool outside diameter is 165mm and AR18 reel outside diameter is 165mm to 300mm or 200mm to 460mm. The Auto Reeler AR24 is a dual-head fully automatic spooler developed for automatic packaging of cable and wire products on spools or reels between 298 and 609mm in overall diameter. It can be used for in-line applications (direct connection with extruder) and off-line applications (AR24 is fed from payoff/flyer) and loads and unloads the reels automatically. It includes stretch wrapping of the spool to contain the cut end. AR24 options include labelling, metre marking, testing and palletising.
