Needle Winding

Needle winding is the process of choice for the production of internally or externally wound stators or rotors with a complex winding scheme and pole chains (see Singletooth Winding).

During the needle winding process, the needle (nozzle) that feeds the wire is moved horizontally or vertically along the pole. It thereby "circles" the pole and winds it.

In terms of the products and processes to be handled, this method offers a comparatively high degree of flexibility compared to others. The needle winding machines from BBS are able to process several different products simultaneously in one and the same machine. They achieve very high operating speeds by exploiting the physical possibilities without negative effects on process reliability.

BBS provides a wide variety of needle winding machines required for special products, e.g. for winding 2-pole stators or cam-operated winding machines where several needles can be used simultaneously to enable maximum throughput.
