The wire is packaged into specially designed and reinforced spools that protect the wire in transport and storage. Every spool is evenly wound with proper tension and pitch to minimize any difficulty in the payoff.
BS EN 60264 series discusses standards for packaging of winding wires. BS EN 60264-5-1 deals with insulated wires used for windings in electrical equipment. BS EN 60264-5-1 specifies the basic dimensions for cylindrical barrelled delivery spools with conical flanges for winding wires.
BS EN 60264-5-1 on spools for winding wire packaging is useful for:
Winding wire is wound on spools of different sizes and shapes. All wires are parallel wound flange-to-flange under controlled tension on plastic shipping spools. A nominal wind tension is sufficient to maintain wind integrity during shipment and storage. The combination of shipping spool, spool cover along with a proper packaging and handling procedures help you to protect the wire during shipping and handling.
BS EN 60264-5-1 provides you with the dimensions and tolerances for cylindrical barrelled delivery spools with conical flanges. Following specifications in BS EN 60264-5-1, lets you manufacture and supply high-quality cylindrical barrelled delivery spools with conical flanges to your customers for packaging wires.
