The MPC Model 358 Dual Head Shed Winder combines its two shed heads and four-station index table for optimum winding productivity with state-of-the-art machine and tooling technology, to produce the ultimate coil generator.

Because of MPC's many years of experience in shed winders and its use of the field-proven, patented "Gearloc" method of shaft stabilization, the 358 provides the highest quality and reliability available.

The MPC Model 358 Winder features an IBM compatible computer control using an SVGA color monitor.

Our latest enhancements provide for faster changeovers and improved machine up-time. Features include manual or automatic synchronous stack height set-up, MPC's "Tensitrol" wire tension control and precision AC servo actuated jump. The improved wire handling execution and accurate control of each winding flyer maintains optimum interpole crossovers inside the transfer tooling.
