Title: Machine tool with intermittently rotatable turret, more particularly a coil winder, and method of operating same

Abstract: An improved method and machine are described for performing a plurality of working operations, such as for producing finished, wound coils, the working operations including a basic working operation requiring a relatively long time, e.g. winding the coil, and a plurality of complementary working operations each requiring a relatively short time, e.g. finishing the wound coil, the improvement being in carrying out the basic working operation on n parts simultaneously at n working stations, n being at least two, and carrying out the complementary working operations in succession on single work pieces, the work pieces being advanced at the end of each basic operation by n steps of which the last step is followed by a long stop, for carrying out the next basic working operation and a complementary working operation, and the other steps are followed by short stops for carrying out only complementary working operations.
