The standard control package on all Broomfield coil winding machines with automatic wire guide systems is the Broomfield S-50.
This device provides for "at the machine" programming of wire guide pitch, automatic spindle slowing/stopping and layering style (parallel or spiral). The winding area is defined by operator positioned manual end stops.
Specifications
Pitch values range from 0.0000" to 3.0000" (0.00 mm to 76.20 mm)
Wind modes are parallel or spiral
Turn count ranges from 0.00 to 99999.99 and can display negative values.
Operator can specify the turn count for a slow and for a stop.
There can be as many as 50 slow and stop points per program.
Seven sets of coil winding data (programs) may be stored.
Left and right end stop contacts define the winding area by causing the traverse to reverse direction.
Traverse Left and Traverse Right Direction buttons and Traverse Direction arrows are provided.
Traverse Home Left and Home Right buttons send the wire guide arm to the corresponding end stop.
Traverse Jog Left and Jog Right buttons allow for incremental wire guide traverse motion, but also include progressive acceleration for quicker setup of a wide travers.
Traverse Jog may be used during winding to make minor wire guide traverse position changes.
The display has two lines of 40 characters each and a numeric keypad.
The Broomfield S-50 can continue running from the same place following a shut down or power loss. After powering back up, the control will display the same position within the coil that it displayed prior to the loss of power.
