Device, in particular machine, for producing a Wiegand wire from a wire, in particular a pulse wire, and method for operating a device

Abstract

In a device, in particular machine, for producing Wiegand wire from a wire, in particular pulse wire, and a method for operating a device, the device having a first clamping chuck, a second clamping chuck, and a third clamping chuck, the wire being fed through each of the three clamping chucks, in particular so that the wire is able to be connected in a releasable and torsionally fixed manner to the three clamping chucks, in particular able to be connected to the three clamping chucks in a releasable, torsionally fixed and nonpositive manner. The clamping chucks are set apart from one another in the wire direction, and the second clamping chuck is situated between the first and the third clamping chuck in the wire direction. The second clamping chuck is rotatably mounted so that a torsion is able to be applied to a first wire section and the reverse torsion is able to be applied to a second wire section, the first wire section being situated between the first clamping chuck and the second clamping chuck, the second wire section being situated between the third clamping chuck and the second clamping chuck. The distance in the wire direction between the first and the second clamping chuck is controllable and/or regulatable with the aid of a first linear actuator, and the distance in the wire direction between the second and the third clamping chuck is controllable and/or regulatable with the aid of a second linear actuator.
