Abstract
In paper winding, separate rolls are formed side by side around roll cores (10a, 10b) placed one after the other while supported by support members. The cores are pressed at their ends against one another by core chucks (20) arranged in connection with the free ends of the outermost roll cores (10a, 10b). The roll cores (10a, 10b) are placed in a desired position and subjected to a desired compression force by the core chucks (20), the length of the row of roll cores (10a, 10b) is determined, and the compression force of at least one core chuck (20) is regulated during winding when the length of the roll core row changes to keep the compression force and/or the length of the roll core row within desired limits.
Claims10
A method of winding comprising the steps of:
- forming separate rolls, each roll having two ends, wherein the separate rolls are formed side by side around roll cores placed one after the other to form a row of rolls, and thereby define outermost roll cores which have free ends, the separate rolls being formed while supported by support members;
- pressing the roll cores at their ends against one another by two core chucks arranged in connection with the free ends of the outermost roll cores,
- placing the roll cores in a selected position and subjecting the roll cores to a selected compression force by the core chucks;
- measuring the length of the row of rolls with a position sensor and a compression pressure sensor forming part of one of said two core chucks;
- and
- regulating the compression force of at least one core chuck during winding within selected limits with respect to at least one of the compression force or the length of the roll row.

- pressing the roll cores at their ends against one another by two core chucks arranged in connection with the free ends of the outermost roll cores,
- placing the roll cores in a selected Position and subjecting the roll cores to a selected compression force by the core chucks;
- determining the length of the row of the rolls;
- and
- regulating the compression force of at least one core chuck during winding with respect to at least one of the compression force or the length of the roll row, within selected limits;
- wherein the position of the core chuck(s) is measured to measure the length of the roll core row.
A winding machine comprising:
- a plurality of support members;
- a plurality of separate rolls forming side by side around roll cores placed one after the other, while supported by the support members;
- a first core chuck arranged in connection with a first free end of a first outermost roll core;
- a second core chuck arranged in connection with a second free end of a second outermost roll core;
- the first core chuck having a first measuring device for measuring the position of the first core chuck and a second measuring device for measuring the compression force of the first core chuck;
- the first core chuck having a first control device(s) for controlling the operation of the first core chuck during winding to keep the position of the first core chuck within selected values and to keep the compression force within selected values.
