Abstract: The invention relates to a winding module (2) for a winding device for automatically winding coils for an electric machine, comprising a module structure (20), a needle carriage (24) having a needle (25), wherein the needle carriage (24) is mounted in the module structure (20) such that it can move along a first direction (R). The winding module (2) has a winding material clamping device (240) for clamping the winding material (8), which is designed to secure the winding material (8) against rotation and against shifting along the needle axis (250), wherein the winding material clamping device (240) is arranged in or on the needle carriage (24). The invention also relates to a module frame and a winding device having a module (2) of this type.
