What are the characteristics of using vertical winding for transformers? (Part2)

In the manufacturing of transformers, the choice of winding method has an important impact on its performance and quality. As a winding method, vertical winding not only has the advantages mentioned in the previous article, but also has some disadvantages. This article will deeply explore the disadvantages of using vertical winding for transformer winding.

Content

●High winding difficulty
Vertical winding requires special winding equipment and processes to ensure the tight arrangement and stability of the coil in the vertical direction. During the winding process, the tension and position of the wire need to be precisely controlled; otherwise, problems such as loose coils and deformation are prone to occur. This increases the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the transformer and requires a higher technical level of production processes and operators.

●Complex insulation treatment
Since the coils of vertical winding are in the vertical direction, the distribution of insulation materials needs to be more uniform to prevent partial discharge and insulation breakdown. This makes the insulation treatment more complex and requires special insulation materials and processes. In addition, during long-term operation, due to the action of gravity, the insulation material may sink or deform, affecting the insulation performance of the transformer.

●Low mechanical strength
The mechanical strength of the coils of vertical winding in the vertical direction is relatively low and is easily affected by external impacts and vibrations. During transportation and installation, additional protective measures need to be taken to prevent coil damage. In addition, in some harsh working environments such as high temperature, high humidity, and strong magnetic fields, the mechanical strength of vertical winding transformers may be further reduced.

In Summary

In conclusion, using vertical winding for transformer winding has advantages such as high space utilization, good heat dissipation performance, and reduction of parasitic capacitance, but there are also disadvantages such as high winding difficulty, complex insulation treatment, and low mechanical strength. When choosing a winding method, according to specific application requirements and production conditions, the advantages and disadvantages of vertical winding need to be comprehensively considered to ensure the performance, quality, and reliability of the transformer.
