[0028] Spring winding machine 1 is usually composed of a machine body, a feeding mechanism 3, a winding mechanism, a variable-diameter mechanism, a pitch mechanism, etc.

[0029] Machine body: it is the basic framework of spring winding machine 1, provides installation support and stable working platform for other components.

[0030] Winding mechanism: is the core part of the spring winding machine 1, mainly composed of mandrel, winding cam, cutter and so on.

[0031] Variable diameter mechanism: when producing springs with different outer diameters, the variable diameter mechanism can adjust the outer diameter size of the spring. By changing the position or angle of the winding mold, the outer diameter of the spring is changed to meet the needs of different products.

[0032] Pitch mechanism: used to control the pitch of the spring. The pitch mechanism can accurately adjust the pitch size of the spring through mechanical transmission, hydraulic transmission or motor drive, etc., to produce springs with various pitch requirements.

During the winding process, the spring winding machine 1 accurately controls the winding length and pitch of the metal workpiece according to the set number of turns and pitch.

[0035] When winding to the set number of turns, the cutting device of the spring winding machine 1 will automatically cut off the metal workpiece, so that the spring is separated from the raw material.
