Microcontroller Based Smart Coil Winder System

The aim of this paper is to develop the control circuit for smart automatic coil winder, which functions with respect to the PIC Microcontroller program. The conventional coil winding machine winds copper wire on a former and the former is attached to the iron rod, which is to be actuated manually. Moreover, the manual coil winding machine does not have any control circuit for the smart functionality. But in this design, the controller has more memory to operate and save the data and also to improve the winder program. Additionally, it also reduces the time of operation and the requirement of Manpower. This coil winder control circuit uses PIC Microcontroller (16F887), which runs the winder system according to main program and also the motor step sequencing program.
