Overview: 12-Spindle Contactor Winding Machine
The 12-spindle configuration means the machine can wind 12 coils simultaneously in a single production cycle. Each spindle replicates the same programmed turns, pitch, speed, and tension settings. The result is absolute consistency across all coils.
Core Highlights
- 12 contactor coils produced per cycle
- Ideal for high-volume manufacturers
- Fully programmable winding parameters
- Servo or stepper-driven motion control
- Magnetic tensioners for maximum stability
- Optional servo tensioners for premium control
- Optional taping and twisting attachments
- Auto-loading and auto-unloading system
- Supports fine-gauge to mid-gauge copper wires
The machine is highly robust, built for continuous 24×7 operation with minimal maintenance.

Step-by-Step Working Process
Below is the complete cycle that explains how the machine works:
Step 1: Operator Loads Blank Bobbins
The operator collects blank plastic contactor bobbins and arranges them into the loading fixture.
This is the only manual step in the entire cycle, making the process extremely labor-saving.
Step 2: Automatic Loading to Mandrels
Once the cycle starts:
- A pneumatic or robotic mechanism picks up bobbins from the loading nest
- Places them accurately onto the 12 mandrels
- Ensures proper clamping for high-speed winding
This automation eliminates alignment issues and reduces human error.
Step 3: Winding Process Begins
The machine now starts executing the programmed winding parameters:
- RPM control
- Layer-by-layer precision
- Traverse movement
- Wire guiding
- Tension feedback
Each spindle winds its assigned coil simultaneously.
The winding time typically ranges from 20 to 30 seconds, depending on wire gauge and number of turns.
Step 4: Finishing & Wire Cutting
The system automatically performs:
- End-turn completion
- Wire cutting
- Lead arrangement
- Optional tinning (depending on configuration)
Step 5: Automatic Unloading
After winding:
- Pneumatic arms remove the finished coils
- Deposits them into output trays
- Prepares mandrels for the next batch
This enables continuous mass production without stopping.
Key Features of the Machine
Below are the essential features that make this machine the top choice in India’s coil manufacturing industry.
12-Spindle High-Volume Winding System
- All 12 mandrels operate together
- Perfect for bulk orders
- Reduces cycle time drastically
- Each spindle is synchronized for maximum accuracy
- Each spindle is synchronized for maximum accuracy
Magnetic Tensioners (Optional: Servo Tensioners)
Magnetic tensioners provide:
- Stable tension
- Smooth wire feeding
- Minimal breakage
Users requiring extreme precision (especially for fine gauge wires 0.05–0.14 mm) can upgrade to servo tensioners, which offer:
- Real-time tension control
- Digital programming
- Constant tension irrespective of spool diameter
Optional Taping Attachment
This attachment automatically tapes the wound coil after winding.
Benefits:
- Increases speed
- Reduces manual taping work
- Improves coil finishing quality
Optional Copper Wire Twisting Unit
Useful when using multiple fine-gauge wires (e.g., parallel wires).
The twisting unit ensures:
- No crossover
- Smooth feeding
- Higher winding reliability
- Avoids insulation damage
Advanced Control System
- Touchscreen HMI
- Multiple programs storage
- Parameter locking
- Error alarms
- Easy user interface
Even new operators can run the machine with minimal training.
High Durability & Industrial Build Quality
- Heavy-duty frame
- Precision machined mandrels
- Designed for long production shifts
- Imported motors and controllers
Advantages of the Contactor Coil Winding Machine
1. Very High Production Output
Winding 12 coils at a time massively increases daily output.
A single machine can easily produce 12,000–18,000 coils per day depending on shift length and winding parameters.
2. Extreme Accuracy
- Identical winding across all coils
- Perfect tension control
- No human variation
- Reduced rejection rates
Accuracy is critical for contactor coil performance and heating control.
3. Huge Labour Saving
A process that normally needs 8–10 workers can now be run with just one operator.
This leads to major annual savings in:
- Wages
- Training
- Absenteeism
- Manual errors
4. Stable Quality for Export-Grade Requirements
Manufacturers exporting electrical products need zero-defect coils.
Automatic winding ensures stable, repeatable quality.
5. Easy to Maintain
The machine is simple to service, with:
- Minimal consumables
- Accessible mechanical parts
- On-screen diagnostic messages
6. Supports Multiple Bobbin Sizes
Ideal for different models of contactor coils used in:
- LT panels
- Electrical relays
- Switchgear
- HVAC contactors

ROI (Return on Investment) Calculation
Let’s calculate the ROI for a typical manufacturer.
1. Cycle Time
Average cycle time = 25–30 seconds
Meaning: 12 coils every 25–30 seconds
Approx. output per hour:
12 coils × 120 cycles ≈ 1,440 coils/hour
Output per 10-hour shift:
1,440 × 10 = 14,400 coils/day
2. Labour Savings
Manual process: Requires 8–9 workers
Automatic machine: Only 1 operator required
Savings:
Approx. ₹80,000–₹150,000 per month depending on city and labour category.
3. Rejection Reduction
Manual rejection: 3–8%
Automatic rejection: <1%
Savings: Another ₹20,000–₹40,000/month
4. Payback Period
Total estimated savings = ₹100,000 to ₹1,50,000 per month
Machine ROI = 8–12 months
(Sometimes even faster based on production volume)
