Helical winding is a manufacturing process used to create components by wrapping materials, such as wire or fiber, in a spiral pattern around a core. This technique is commonly employed in the production of coils, springs, and tubes, allowing for efficient use of space and material. The helical shape provides strength and flexibility, making it suitable for various applications in industries like electronics and aerospace. The process involves precise control of tension and angle to ensure uniformity and quality in the final product. Helical winding can be performed using automated machines, which enhance production speed and consistency. This method is essential for creating components that require specific mechanical properties and performance characteristics.
