Abstract
A method and a device for controlling a winder, where the winding torque (T ), during winding, is controlled as a function of the desired tractive force in the material to be wound. During winding, repeatedly is calculated which value a quantity (V ), influencing the winding torque (T ), has to adopt in order to obtain a desired tractive force (F ), and an adjustment of the said quantity (V ) is carried out, the calculated value being used as an objective value. Preferably, the calculation is done by an algorithm, expressing the said quantity as a function of the desired tractive force (F ), as a function of one or more fixed parameters which are characteristic for winding up material or for the winder, and as a function of one or more variable parameters, being measured or calculated during winding. The device also relates to a winder comprising a winding body ( ), ( ) for winding a material, a drive device ( ),( ) for driving this winding body ( ), ( ) an a control device.
