RESIN APPLICATOR FOR COATING METAL WIRE AND ASSOCIATED METHOD FOR COATING.
The invention relates to an applicator for coating metal wire with resin, an associated method for coating resin on metal wire, and an installation comprising the applicator while using the method. In the field of coating metal wires, notably the field of coating steel wires and more in particular in the production of bead wires that are steel wires coated with a resin it is important that the resin is applied in a uniform way both over the circumference and the length of the wire. The inventors therefore come up with an apparatus that comprises an applicator for applying an resin solution and a wiping section, wherein the distance between these two can be adjusted as well as the length of the wiping section. The applicator applies a surplus of resin solution, while the wiping section calibrates this to the desired amount in order to obtain the final amount of dried resin on the wire. Both applicator and wiping section are contained in an encasement with provisions to recuperate evaporated solvent thereby reducing harmful emissions. In the associated method the resin to solvent ratio is used to steer to the final amount.

Winding module and winding installation for metal wires
A winding module and a winding installation including winding modules for winding metal wire. In such a winding installation or take-up bench a driven capstan is used to pull the metal wire through a processing installation before being led onto a take-up spool. The spool is driven by a cantilever supported shaft. In prior art take-up benches, both the capstan and the spool is reachable by an operator from the same side. This means that the capstan direction—the direction from the driven side of the capstan to the operator side—is equal to the shaft direction—the direction from the drive side of the shaft to the open end of the shaft. In the inventive winding module the capstan direction is opposite to the shaft direction, which provides a completely different operation of the winding module and the winding installation and facilitates the introduction of doffing robots.
