Abstract

To simplify and accelerate the chucking of a journal-free beam or roll mandrel in a winding machine and also to automate and accelerate the alignment of the winding machine and the journal-free beam or roll mandrel in relation to a creel middle plane or centerline, a displacement device is connected to an auxiliary side stand by at least one first extension link or hollow spindle and is also connected with a displaceable support by at least one second extension link or solid spindle. To achieve these effects, the first and second extension links or spindles are moved or positively controlled in opposite displacement directions through respectively equal distances relative to a spatially fixed plane passing through the displacement device and which plane extends transverse to the direction of displacement of the winding machine.
