The curved wrapping wheel on the right starts to turn and lays film round the coil while the turntable turns slowly.<\/p>\n<p>When wrapping stops, a head presses down on the wrapped coil and the clamp releases it. The coil, now covered in green film with a yellow label band, runs along the roller conveyor and drops into a carton below. Red and blue air lines run to the actuators.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-it-works\">How the online cycle works<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Step<\/th>\n<th>What happens<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Clamp<\/td>\n<td>The cable coil is held upright in the clamp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Wrap<\/td>\n<td>The wrapping wheel lays film round the coil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Press<\/td>\n<td>A head presses the wrapped coil<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Release<\/td>\n<td>The clamp opens and the coil moves to the conveyor<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Box<\/td>\n<td>The coil drops into the carton below<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Boxing at the end of the conveyor means the coil goes from coiler to carton without being touched.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"takt\">Matching wrap cycle to line speed (takt time)<\/h2>\n<p>The wrapper must finish each coil before the next one is coiled.

Keep hands out of the clamp and wheel area while the machine runs, and clear a coil only with it stopped.<\/p>\n<p>The standards that apply depend on the destination market. For CE markets, ISO 12100 sets the risk-assessment method and EN 415-10 sets general requirements for packaging machines.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"selection-checklist\">Selection checklist for an online cable coil wrapper<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Cable diameter and type.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Coil length, OD, ID and height.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Line speed.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Film type and colour.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Labels and cartons.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-left:-1.25em;list-style-type:none\"><input type=\"checkbox\" disabled=\"disabled\" \/> Floor space and air supply.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"engineering-faq\">Engineering FAQ<\/h2>\n<p>Q: Can the wrapper keep up with the coiler?\nA: Yes, if the wrap cycle is shorter than the coiling time. Our illustrative 100 m coil at 60 m\/min gives 100 s, so clamp, wrap, press and release must take less than that.<\/p>\n<p>Q: What happens after wrapping?\nA: The coil is pressed, released and sent along the conveyor into a carton.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Which coil sets the cycle?\nA: The shortest coil length, because it leaves the least time.<\/p>\n<p>Q: How is the coil held?\nA: Upright in the clamp while the wheel wraps it.<\/p>\n<p>Q: Can it add a label band?\nA: Yes. Our video shows coils leaving with a yellow label band.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"next-step\">Next step<\/h2>\n<p>We plan your cable coil wrapping machine in three steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Submit your layout drawing<\/strong> with cable sizes, coil lengths and line speed to <strong>info@fhopepack.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receive a proposal within 48 hours<\/strong>, with the cycle time and film plan.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Book a site survey<\/strong> to check the line layout and floor space.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2 id=\"related-reading\">Related reading<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/Automatic-Coil-Packing-Line\/\">Automatic coil packing line<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/cable-coil-packing-machine-and-wire-packing-machine\/\">Video: cable coil packing machine for small-ID wire coils<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhopepack.com\/videos\/economic-cable-coil-packing-machine-wire-wrapping-machine\/\">Video: economic cable coil packing machine<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Machine content: FHOPE engineering team, 2026-10-04<\/li>\n<li>Cycle example: our worked example; line speed and coil length are illustrative values<\/li>\n<li>Machine in action: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=l-hDm3msNIE\">our video on YouTube<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Standards scope: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iso.org\/standard\/51528.html\">ISO 12100:2010<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nen.nl\/en\/nen-en-415-10-2014-en-191845\">EN 415-10:2014<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Last reviewed:<\/strong> 2026-10-04<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Executive summary Small cable coils come off the line fast, so wrapping has to keep up with the coiler without a person in between.
