Abstract: Method for fitting caps by means of an automatic apparatus onto at least one end of a pipe, fed in a longitudinal direction by a pipe-feeding machine and directed to a machine for bundling the pipe, wherein said apparatus being movable alternately in both senses of the longitudinal direction between two opposite end-of-travel ends, i.e. rear end facing the feeding machine, and front end opposite to the rear end.

Abstract: Machine for winding tubes (1) in spool form, comprising a structure (10) carrying a rotating reel (11), a device for feeding a tube (1) to the reel (11) in a longitudinal direction (X-X), a blade (12) for cutting the tube (1), movable in both senses along a transverse direction (Y-Y), a unit (20) for measuring the length of the tube (1), a device (22) for marking the tube (1) when a predefined length of the tube to be wound is reached, said device being arranged upstream of the machine, and a device (30) for detecting a marking (1b) applied to the tube (1), which device is arranged upstream of the cutting blade (12) at a predetermined distance (D) from said blade in the longitudinal direction (X-X).

Abstract: A machine for coiling pipes in the form of large-size heavy spools includes a reel rotating about a longitudinal axis for coiling the pipes fed to the reel in a feeding direction, the reel including: a first rotating half-reel; a second half-reel coaxial with and arranged opposite the first half-reel in the longitudinal direction; said first and second half-reels being displaceable in both senses of the longitudinal direction from a relative position where the two half-reels are closed in contact with each other in the longitudinal direction for coiling the spool, to a position where the two half-reels are separated from each other for unloading the finished and tied spool; and an assembly for tying the spool using a strap.

Abstract: A machine for winding pairs of tubes which are parallel to an advancing direction (Y-Y) and independent of each other in the longitudinal direction (X-X) of rotation of a reel connected to the machine comprising an apparatus for feeding and guiding the pair of tubes, formed by: a suitable pulling device arranged upstream of the reel in the direction of advancing movement of the tubes and intended to feed the two tubes in the transverse direction (Y-Y) as far as the point of entry thereof onto the winding reel; a tube-guiding device which is arranged in-line and downstream of the pulling device in the direction of advancing movement of the tubes and the internal seat of which is able to contain the two tubes arranged alongside each other in the advancing direction (Y-Y) and guided in the radial direction (Z-Z).

Abstract: Machine for winding tubes (1) in spool form, comprising a structure (10) carrying a rotating reel (11), a device for feeding a tube (1) to the reel (11) in a longitudinal direction (X-X), a blade (12) for cutting the tube (1), movable in both senses along a transverse direction (Y-Y), a unit (20) for measuring the length of the tube (1), a device (22) for marking the tube (1) when a predefined length of the tube to be wound is reached, said device being arranged upstream of the machine, and a device (30) for detecting a marking (1b) applied to the tube (1), which device is arranged upstream of the cutting blade (12) at a predetermined distance (D) from said blade in the longitudinal direction (X-X).

Abstract: Method for winding up tubes (1) in spool form by means of an apparatus for winding and wrapping the spool formed with a film (2), the apparatus comprising a structure (10) translationally movable and carrying a reel (20) rotating about a longitudinal axis of rotation (X-X), a feeder device (40) feeding a tube (1) to the reel (20), a feeder device (50) feeding a wrapping film (2), and a pair of coaxial discs (30a,30b;130a,130b) which are respectively distal (30a;130a) and proximal (30b;130b) and arranged opposite each other for containing the sides of the spool in the longitudinal direction (X-X).
