Method for implementing a correct winding of a wire on a spool (100). The method also comprises a step for calculating the angular speed of a motor (43) displacing the wire dispensing device (40) according to the wire winding step and according to the dancer error, detected by a position sensor (35) that provides an analogical signal with respect to a zero position and to a tolerance value, in order to determine the presence of a possible valley error, or of a possible peak error. In this method, if during the spool winding, a valley error or a peak error is detected, the control device decides whether to slow down or to increase the speed of the wire dispensing device (40) with the aim of filling the depression or skipping the peak.

A system for cable abnormality detection is disclosed. The system includes a laser sensor measurement system for measuring a cable diameter and insulator jacket coating thickness of a cable and a guide assembly for guiding entry of the cable through the laser sensor measurement system. The system further includes a control system with a memory and a processor that executes computer-executable instructions and causes the processor to: measure the cable diameter with respect to upper limits of the cable diameter; determine that the cable diameter is outside of the upper limits using the cable diameter measurements and cable parameter tolerances; and initiate a signal to stop the cable from advancing, in response to determining that the cable diameter is outside of the upper limits.
