Abstract: The invention makes it possible to perform regular winding of a wire easily, inexpensively, and reliably. During traversing a winding position in the reel axis direction, while a guide roller 2 is held at a position where the distance (D) from the wound surface on the outer circumference of a reel body 1a is in a range of more than 0 mm to 30 mm or less, it is kept at an orientation where a roller radial center line P is perpendicular to a reel axis R at a position apart from a border with a reel flange 1b, and gradually inclined, with movement of a reel 1 in the reel axis direction, in a direction in which the roller outer edge goes away from the reel flange 1b ahead in the traverse direction on the side apart from the reel body 1a relative to a rotation center C, as a fulcrum, located near the outer edge on the side near the outer circumference of the body of the reel 1 at a position of the border of the reel flange 1b.

Abstract: A traverse device and a traverse method for winding wire materials are provided. A guide roller is placed near the outer circumference of a reel body and inclined, around the rotation center (center of curvature of an R guide) located near the outer edge of the guide roller on the side near the reel body as the fulcrum, in a direction in which the roller outer edge recedes from one of reel flanges ahead in the traverse direction on the side apart from the reel body. The inclining direction is switched at the midpoint position between the reel flanges, and with the guide roller being inclined at all times, a reel is rotated while being moved in the axis direction to wind a wire material on the reel.

Abstract: The invention makes it possible to perform regular winding of a wire material by a simple means easily and inexpensively. A guide roller 2 is placed near the outer circumference of a reel body 1a and inclined, around the rotation center C (center of curvature of an R guide 8) located near the outer edge of the guide roller 2 on the side near the reel body 1a as the fulcrum, in a direction in which the roller outer edge recedes from one of reel flanges 1b ahead in the traverse direction on the side apart from the reel body 1a. The inclining direction is switched at the midpoint position between the reel flanges 1b, and with the guide roller 2 being inclined at all times, a reel 1 is rotated while being moved in the axis direction to wind a wire material T on the reel 1.
