Abstract (en)

A spooling machine for spooling elongate material such as metal wire and tape, wherein the material is fed to the spool 14 by a pinch wheel capstan drive 37, 38 and the spool 14 is rotated by a torque motor so that the power setting of the motor determines the tension in the spooled material and the pass speed of the capstan drive 37, 38 determines the speed of rotation of the spool 14. The invention further resides in a method of spooling wherein the lay of turns adjacent the axial ends of the spool 14 is wider than throughout the remainder of the axial length of the spool.
