The invention concerns a coil winding machine and, more precisely, a coil winder to wind up coils for use in the electric and/or electronic field, of the type comprising a plurality of rotary spindles supporting the coil cores and a corresponding plurality of flyers feeding the wire to be wound up to the spindles. This coil winder also comprises mechanism to produce relative movements between each spindle and the respective flyer along the three cartesian axes (X, Y and Z), in order to carry out the winding of the coil and/or the twisting of the wire ends on the coil terminals. According to the invention, the spindles supporting the coil cores are mounted, rotating about their own axis (X), onto a support head which is in turn movable in a horizontal plane (axes X and Y), while the flyers are movable only along the third axis (Z).
A coil winder comprising a plurality of rotary spindles each adapted to support a coil core, said spindles being rotatable about axes which are parallel to each other, a single support head supporting said plurality of spindles, a flyer for each said spindle, means for moving said support head relative to said flyers in each of two horizontal directions perpendicular to each other, said support head being carried by a first slide movable along one said horizontal direction and said first slide is mounted on a second slide movable along the other said horizontal direction perpendicular to the first said horizontal direction, and means for moving said slides selectively in said horizontal directions.
