What is the effect of installing a wire reel on the universal spring machine?

In the daily operation of the spring machine, especially the universal spring machine (also called the eight-jaw spring machine), the realization of continuous and stable wire feeding is a key factor to ensure efficient processing. Warm reminder, in the operation of the spring machine, the realization of continuous and stable wire feeding is a very important operation link, and the installation of the wire reel is an important part to realize this process. So, what is the effect of installing a wire reel on the universal spring machine?

① Straighten out the direction of the wire. In comparison, there are many domestic wires whose surface flatness is not good. For example, they tend to have a "8" shape. It is easy for the wires to spin during the wire feeding or pay-off process, and the wires are twisted together. Affect processing efficiency. In order to straighten out the direction of the wire, we can add a wire reel to the front of the universal spring machine straightening system. The wire reel can effectively prevent the wire from rotating. After the wire is straightened, the wire can be made lighter and more flexible.

② Prevent line jump. During the wire feeding or pay-off process of the wire feeding frame of the spring machine, due to the insufficient tension of the wire itself, the wire will sway irregularly up and down or left and right, which can easily cause the pitch and outer diameter of the spring to be unstable. This will affect the quality of spring processing. In order to prevent the jump of the wire direction, we can install a wire reel between the spring machine and the wire feeding frame. The wire has a certain buffer transition zone during the wire feeding process, which plays the role of fixing the wire from shaking. 

In short, the installation of the wire reel on the universal spring machine is to enable the machine tool to achieve continuous and stable wire feeding during work, so as to ensure the processing accuracy and quality requirements of the product.
