2CW4-1048:

This is a high speed machine for circumferentially winding high pressure cylinders.  This machine handles four cylinders at a time in a size range to 10 inches in diameter and 48 inches long.  The 200 RPM spindle speed allows wet winding at speeds up to 525 feet per minute.  An air operated tail stock and quick release spindle adapters provide very short load/unload cycle times.

2HW2-1248

Current versions of this mechanical helical and circumferential filament winding machine utilize two vector duty variable speed AC motors and a six decade electronic ratio controller for synchronization.  This two axis, two spindle machine handles full wrap cylinders up to 12 inches in diameter and 48 inches long. These machines can be built with a high speed capability for water treatment cylinder production or a medium speed, high torque capability for high pressure CNG cylinder production.  Automatic cycling from helical to circumferential winding is common with these digitally synchronized machines.  These machines can be built to handle parts up to 72 inches in length in 12 inch increments.

4HW2-824a:

A machine specifically designed to quickly apply the glass protective cover on carbon fiber wrapped SCBA cylinders.  This machine is a two axis machine using servo motor technology and electronic gearing for ease of setup in both helical and circumferential winding modes.

CW6x40:

A mechanically synchronized circumferential winding machine handling pipe measuring up to six feet in diameter and forty feet long with a weight not to exceed 12,000 pounds.  In addition to the two axes required for winding this machine had a third, servo controlled axis for a separate cart carrying the fiber delivery creel and resin impregnation system.  The creel and resin delivery system could handle in excess of 120 doffs of glass with a net weight of 5000 pounds.

CW-5x80:

This circumferential winder was built to over-wrap common welded steel pipe to increase the pressure rating making it suitable for high pressure natural gas transmission pipe lines.  The machine will handle pipe up to five feet in diameter, eighty feet long and with a finished weight of 30,000 pounds.  Because of the large quantity of glass fiber consumed it was decided to move the pipe past a stationary resin delivery system and fiber creel.  The machine commonly uses 216 strands of 250 yield glass at a speed of 350 feet per minute for glass consumption of 100 pounds per minute.  Resin consumption is approximately 20 pounds per minute.  Servo motor technology was used to provide eight synchronously powered wheels driving the two carriages and eight synchronized support rolls rotating the pipe joint.

HW896:

This is a low cost helical/circumferential filament winding machine handling parts up to eight inches in diameter and eight feet long.  Servo motor technology and electronic gearing make this machine easy to set up for a variety of helical and circumferential winding patterns.

Projectile Winder:

A machine designed specifically to wind glass on the undercut section of a 155 mm howitzer projectile.  This is a semi automatic machine that applied net resin to the fiber prior to its being wound on the part.  Parts were loaded and unloaded automatically when signalled by the operator.  Floor to floor times were one minute or less, depending on the operators dexterity in cutting and restarting the fiber on the part.

PW4872:

This polar/circumferential winding machine was designed to produce accumulators for farm well water systems.  The winding pattern utilized a three inch band width for high productivity. 

TW-40a:

A tumble winder designed to produce swimming pool filter bodies in sizes from 30 to 36 inches in diameter.  This machine, built over thirty years ago had a productive life of twenty years and was noted for its exceptional rate of production.

2HW2-2472

Current versions of this helical and circumferential filament winding machine utilize two vector duty variable speed AC motors and a six decade electronic ratio controller for synchronization.  This two axis, two spindle machine handles full wrap cylinders up to 24 inches in diameter and 72 inches long. These machines can be built with a high speed capability for water treatment cylinder production or a medium speed, high torque capability for high pressure CNG cylinder production.  Automatic cycling from helical to circumferential winding is common with these digitally synchronized machines.  These machines can be built to handle parts up to 120 inches in length in 12 inch increments.
