Abstract
A method for the automatic sidewise pushing of a plurality of cores of any desired length into the wedge formed by the supporting rolls of an arborless winding machine, comprising measuring the length of the first core to be inserted, retracting a retractable pusher into a position just back of the rear end of the first core which has been measured and is ready to be transferred, moving the core to a feed track, advancing the pusher to push the core into the wedge, and repeating the process until all cores have been inserted. An apparatus is provided to carry out the method automatically.
