We offer a comprehensive range of precision metal processing equipment, including straightening, cold drawing, pointing, chamfering, cutting, thread rolling machines, and drawing dies, tailored for tube, bar, and wire materials across diverse industries.
The Automatic Rewinding Machine is installed at the end of a metal tube production line to transfer continuously produced tubing from the production reel to a finished coil. For copper and aluminum tubes that are produced and packaged in continuous coils, rewinding quality affects subsequent handling, packaging, storage, and processing.
During operation, the machine coordinates reel speed, tube travel speed, and winding tension so that the tube is arranged layer by layer according to the preset winding path. Compared with manual rewinding, this reduces loose coils, irregular winding, tube twisting, and surface scratches caused by handling. It also helps maintain more consistent coil dimensions and appearance between production batches.
For manufacturers already operating extrusion, cold drawing, or annealing lines, the machine can be configured around the existing line speed, available space, and material discharge method rather than being treated as a standalone unit.
The machine receives tubing continuously from the upstream production line and guides it into the winding section. A servo drive controls reel rotation, while the tension system adjusts winding force according to operating conditions. The traverse mechanism controls the position of the tube as it is distributed across the reel.
The PLC monitors and controls winding speed, tension, coil dimensions, and operating status. When the preset coil diameter or length is reached, the system can stop the winding cycle and prepare for the next operation. The level of automation can be configured according to the production line.
Manual or conventional rewinding can create several production problems:
The machine addresses these issues through controlled winding tension, servo synchronization, and automatic tube traversing. This reduces manual intervention and improves consistency between finished coils.
The system can automate tube feeding, winding, traverse movement, and coil completion detection, reducing the need for continuous operator adjustment.
Winding tension can be adjusted according to tube material and specifications. This helps reduce excessive stretching, flattening, or loose winding when processing different metal tubes.
The servo system synchronizes reel rotation with tube movement, maintaining stable operation during high-speed winding and allowing winding speed to be adjusted according to production requirements.
The PLC system manages machine operation, parameter settings, and fault monitoring. The touch screen allows operators to adjust production parameters and check machine status.
The traverse mechanism moves the tube across the reel width to form orderly layers and reduce local buildup and crossed winding.
The Automatic Rewinding Machine can be used for various continuous metal tubing products, including:
It can be integrated with extrusion, cold drawing, annealing, and other continuous tube production lines.
Rewinding equipment should be configured according to the actual production line rather than using one standard specification for every application. Before selecting a machine, the key parameters include tube material, outside diameter, wall thickness, coil weight, coil diameter, coil width, production speed, and the discharge method of the upstream equipment.
Fangrong can determine the reel size, drive configuration, tension control method, and automatic loading or unloading arrangement based on these requirements. For integration with an existing line, installation height, discharge direction, available space, and power supply should also be confirmed.
Dongguan Fangrong Metallurgical Equipment Co., Ltd.
Located in Dalang Town, Dongguan, Guangdong, this facility serves as the company's headquarters and primary manufacturing base. It focuses on precision cold drawing machines, straightening machines, thread rolling equipment, and related metal processing machinery.
Yangjiang Fangrong Machinery Co., Ltd.
Located in Yangdong District, Yangjiang, Guangdong, this facility expands manufacturing capacity and supports production and delivery for different projects.
Fangrong was established in 1998 and has more than 26 years of experience in manufacturing straightening machines, cold drawing equipment, and related metallurgical machinery. The company operates manufacturing facilities in Dongguan and Yangjiang. Its equipment has been supplied to customers in more than 60 countries and regions and used across more than 60 industries, with more than 10,000 customers served.
Production starts with mechanical and electrical engineering. After the engineering team confirms the equipment configuration according to the customer's process requirements, the machine proceeds through component machining, surface treatment, mechanical assembly, electrical installation, and commissioning.
Before shipment, key functions including winding tension, reel operation, traverse accuracy, speed control, electrical systems, and safety functions are inspected. For customized equipment, testing can be carried out according to the production parameters supplied by the customer.
- ISO9001:2015 -- Quality management system for design, production, installation and service. Certificate No. UQ231211R1.
- CE Mark -- Compliance with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, including emergency stops, two‑hand controls and light curtains.
- SGS Inspection -- Independent verification of machine performance and safety features.
- National Patents -- 32 invention and 100+ utility model patents. Examples: 2013207829011 (chain tensioning device), 2008300532117 (multi‑strand die holder), ZL2015 2 0842922.7 (quick‑change mandrel system).
After testing, the Automatic Rewinding Machine is packaged according to its dimensions and shipping method. Mechanical components, electrical cabinets, and vulnerable parts are protected according to their transport requirements to reduce the risk of impact, moisture, and contamination during long-distance shipment.
For export projects, packaging and shipping can be arranged according to the customer's logistics requirements. Technical support is available for installation, commissioning, and operation.
It is mainly used for copper, aluminum, brass, stainless steel, steel, and other continuous metal tubes. Final configuration depends on material properties, tube diameter, wall thickness, and winding requirements.
Please provide tube material, outside diameter, wall thickness, coil weight, coil diameter, coil width, production speed, and the layout of the existing production line.
Yes. Automatic tension control can be configured, with winding tension adjusted according to the material and tube specifications.
Yes. The machine can be configured for extrusion, cold drawing, annealing, and other production lines according to line speed, discharge method, and available installation space.
Yes. Reel dimensions and winding parameters can be configured according to the required coil diameter, coil weight, and tube specifications.
Automatic loading, unloading, and coil change functions can be added according to the project requirements. The configuration depends on coil weight, reel dimensions, and production cycle.
The guiding system, tension control, and synchronized drive reduce stretching, twisting, and impact during rewinding. Actual performance also depends on tube material, dimensions, and production speed.
The standard warranty period is 12 months, with long-term technical support. Spare parts, remote troubleshooting, and technical assistance for machine operation are available after delivery.
If you are selecting rewinding equipment for copper tubes, aluminum tubes, or other continuous metal tubing, providing complete tube and production line data before quotation helps avoid unnecessary configuration changes later. Please send:
Fangrong can then recommend the appropriate machine configuration, winding method, and level of automation.
