Special problems incurred when manufacturing coils with fine magnet wire

Abstract

Manufacturing coils with fine wire AWG #36 to #46 requires special consideration to be given to every operation in the manufacturing process. Obviously, the main reason for such detailed considerations is the small size of the wire with very low tensile strength and small cross sectional area. Proper attention to each operation increases quality and reduces manufacturing cost The most common operations are identified and discussed with the exception of winding because winding and tension are covered in many other technical references
