Rotolay

A type of stationary coiling block in which the axis of the block is vertical and the wire is discharged vertically downward with the coils always in a horizontal plane. The wire is led through the center of the block to the underside and then taken out to the block surface over a distributor arm, which lays one turn of wire onto the block with each revolution and allows one turn to drop from the block onto a stationary former or container placed underneath.
