Tooling
Headstock and Tailstock provided with 8” [200 mm] 3-jaw chuck. Chuck clamping range Chuck clamping range 3/16” [4 mm] to 3 ½” [90 mm] dia. Tailstock provided with pneumatic extend-retract tailstock quill with 3” [75mm] of adjustment. Tailstock is adjusted manually, set and locked into desired position.

 
Machine Control
McClean Anderson's Flexwind machine control system is a PC based system that makes filament winding simpler, faster and more accurate.  Since the system is PC-based, users can develop and edit programs right at the control with Composite Designer part development software - even while winding! 
 
Software
McClean Anderson's Composite Designer is an advanced offline software programming tool used for designing and modeling complex filament wound structures. During part program development, winding simulations can be rendered with ease, allowing the users to analyze a multitude of winding senarios in a matter of seconds.
