Abstract

A rotary annulus holding a tape feed reel is moved along a taped body while revolving about the body in a plane normal to its longitudinal axis to wind a tape around the body under the control of a small-scaled computer. The computer stores many coordinate points describing the longitudinal axis of the body and, assuming that the longitudinal axis approximates to a series of broken lines defined by the coordinate points, it calculates a command position of the annulus from every three selected coordinate points adjacent to its actual position, a command speed of rotation and command angles of rotation of the annulus required for keeping its plane of revolution normal to the longitudinal axis of the body at the command position of the annulus.
