Abstract
A turntable coiler for reeling a strip product, comprising a frame mounted rotatably around a central axis, and at least two fixed cantilever reeling mandrels, each in the alignment of a rotation shaft mounted rotatably on two spaced centering bearings. Each mandrel is connected to a motor comprising a rotor fastened to the shaft of the mandrel, and a stator. Each mandrel, its rotation shaft with both bearings and the motor form a motor-mandrel assembly mounted in an independent chassis on which are fastened the stator of the motor and both centering bearings of the shaft carrying the rotor, and the rotary frame is provided with at least two supporting devices, connected to removable bolts for centering and fastening the chassis of the motor-mandrel assembly, in a position for which the reeling axis defined by the bearings is parallel to the central axis, and each motor-mandrel assembly thus constitutes an interchangeable module.
