How can you determine the number of turns per layer in a coil? Jack Neff-Bridgeton, New Jersey?
When I wind coils using a machine with variable pitch , I can vary the number of turns depending on the diameter of the magnet wire. When hand winding or scatter winding as I call it you will have a coil with a varied number of turns per layer. To keep coils in a production run consistent it is best to wind with a machine that keeps the coils looking and sounding consistent. Winding machines can be made to be used with gears that have to be changed for each wire gauge being used or a variable cam that varies the pitch speed. Pitch is the rate or speed in which the magnet wire is guided back and forth across the coil. The basic formula that I use for determining the pitch is as follows.
