Winding machine

Also called: cone winding machine, yarn winding machine, auto winder, automatic cone winder

Step 2 of 7: Spinning

Unwinds yarn from small bobbins, clears out faults and winds it onto large cones ready for knitting or weaving.

Winding machine: how it works

  1. Small bobbins from the ring frame are set on the machine, by hand or by an automatic feeder.
  2. The yarn is drawn off at speed through a tension device, which keeps it evenly tight.
  3. A yarn clearer watches the running yarn and cuts out thick places, thin places and foreign fibre.
  4. A splicer joins the two ends with a blast of air, without a knot.
  5. The yarn winds onto a large cone, which holds the yarn of many bobbins in one package.

Main types

Automatic cone winder
Feeds bobbins, splices and changes full cones by itself. The standard in spinning mills.
Manual cone winder
The operator sets the bobbins and joins the ends. Used for small lots and rewinding.
Soft package winder
Winds loose packages on perforated tubes, so dye liquor can pass through them in yarn dyeing.

Where it fits in the process

It is the last machine of the spinning mill. Bobbins come from the ring frame, and finished cones go to packing, or on to knitting, warping or yarn dyeing.

Winding machine price in Bangladesh: how to get a quote

We do not publish prices. The price of a machine depends on its specification, the supplier and the shipping terms, and it changes with the market. Tell us the points below: we check feasibility and the import rules, then send you a quotation.

What to tell us

  • The yarn you wind: fibre and range of counts.
  • Cones for knitting, cones for weaving or soft packages for dyeing.
  • How many ring spindles feed it, or how much yarn in a day.
  • Hand feeding or automatic bobbin feeding, and whether it links to the ring frame.
  • The compressed air and power supply you have.
  • New or reconditioned.

Common questions

What does a winding machine do in a spinning mill?

It turns many small ring frame bobbins into one large cone and removes yarn faults on the way. Knitting machines and looms need long, fault-free lengths of yarn, which small bobbins cannot give.

What do yarn clearing and splicing mean?

Clearing means measuring the running yarn and cutting out the faults. Splicing means joining the cut ends by opening the fibres and twisting them together with air, so the joint is almost as thin as the yarn.

What is the price of a yarn winding machine in Bangladesh?

We do not publish prices. The price depends on the number of winding positions, how much of the work is automatic, the yarn clearers fitted and whether the machine is new or reconditioned. Send us the points listed above and we will quote.

  • Draw frame

    Combines several slivers and draws them out between rollers, so the sliver becomes even and its fibres lie straight.

  • Ring spinning frame

    Long rows of spindles draw roving thinner and twist it into yarn, winding it onto bobbins.
