The invention relates to a method for detecting a traverse winding defect when winding a link (L) on a spool (1) rotatably driven about a longitudinal axis (X), the link (L) being alternately translationally guided relative to the spool (1) by a guide pulley (2) along said longitudinal axis (X) between two reversal positions, comprising: measuring the position of the guide pulley (2) relative to the spool (1) along the longitudinal axis (X) over time, measuring the position (P2) of a regulation device for regulating the advance speed of the link on the guide pulley over time, from said measurements, determining a deviation between the position (P3) of the regulation device and a reference position (P3r) at each reversal position (Pi1,Pi2), and from said deviation, detecting the formation of a hollow or bump in the winding.

The present disclosure is generally directed towards calculating a remaining length of a cable on a cable reel. Generally, a first distance between a top edge of a first flange of the cable reel and a top portion of the cable remaining on the cable reel is received at a processor. A winding characterization indicating a configuration of the cable wound on the cable reel is also received at the processor. Dimensions of the cable reel are also received at the processor and include: a diameter of the first flange, a cable reel traverse distance, and a diameter of a drum of the cable reel. The cable reel traverse distance indicates a distance between the first and second flanges of the cable reel. The remaining length of the cable on the cable reel is calculated based on the first distance, the winding characterization, and the dimensions of the cable reel.

A method for implementing a correct winding of a wire on a spool. The method is characterized in that it comprises a step for calculating the angular speed of a motor displacing a wire dispensing device according to the wire winding pitch and according to the pulling error, detected in relation to a given pre-set set-point and to a tolerance value, in order to determine the presence of a possible “valley error”, or of a possible “peak error”. Furthermore, 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 with the aim of filling the valley or of skipping the peak.

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.
