Abstract

A system for producing strapped rolls of wire screening having a windup device (3), which has a driven windup mandrel (4) for winding up the wire screening delivered to it, and a guide device for threading the wire screening into the windup mandrel, having a strip-off device (23), with which the wound roll of wire screening is movable in the axial direction relative to the windup mandrel, having a gripper mechanism, which has at least two mutually independent units of gripper arms (19, 20, 21), which are pivotable from above and below toward the outer surface of the roll of wire screening, wherein the gripper mechanism is adjustable in a controlled manner into freely selectable positions, parallel to the windup mandrel axis, by means of a carriage (16) movable on rails (17), and having a surrounding strap application device for the wound roll of wire screening, with a strapping frame (28) that is likewise mounted on a carriage (26) in a manner adjustable at right angles to the windup mandrel axis, and being movable with this carriage parallel to the windup mandrel axis (x--x) on rails (25) in a controlled manner to freely selectable strapping positions, wherein the gripper arms of each gripper arm unit are pivotable in a controlled manner away from the roll of wire screening in order to move past the strapping frame.
