Abstract
A winding apparatus is disclosed for winding material around a core of flat shape rotated around a rotation axis carried by a crank that is in turn carried by another crank, the three rotation axes of the core and of the two cranks being motorized independently by respective electric cams, with three distinct laws of motion programmed to cancel the variations in position and speed of the material entering the core. The winding apparatus is used for the production of electric energy storage devices.
