Services
Coil Winding Machines
We design and manufacture precision coil winding machines for industrial applications. Our equipment handles wire sizes from 11 AWG to the finest gauges with programmable controls for inch or metric measurements. Machines feature variable speed operation up to 3000 RPM and accommodate bobbin diameters up to 10 inches. Custom configurations include pyramid winding, variable pitch, and scatter wind functions.
Toroidal Winding Solutions
Our specialized toroidal winding machines handle core sizes with adjustable setups for different dimensions. Equipment includes digital control systems for precise winding patterns and tension management. Features like dwell functions and repeat cycles ensure consistent production quality. We provide testing services to verify machine compatibility with customer-specific core materials and winding requirements.
Prototype Testing Services
We offer prototype testing with customer-supplied bobbins and wire to validate machine performance. Free tooling available for round-hole bobbins with minimum sample quantities. Testing includes video documentation and sample return. Special tooling charges apply for complex geometries. This service helps determine optimal machine selection before purchase commitments.
Used Machine Refurbishment
We inspect and restore older Gorman models to factory specifications. Refurbished machines undergo mechanical verification and receive updated components where needed. Pricing based on condition with cosmetic factors considered secondary. Non-Gorman models sold 'as-is' with no service guarantees. Includes comprehensive testing documentation for all refurbished units.
Custom Control Systems
Our Trio Control systems offer advanced programming capabilities with 20 recipe storage and 28-step sequences. Features include variable speed foot pedals, repair functions for winding corrections, and remote update capabilities via VPN. Control interfaces support both imperial and metric units. Custom software modifications available for specialized production requirements.
