receling
Receling is a term used in materials handling and manufacturing to describe the controlled re-spooling of filaments, yarns, or continuous fibers onto new reels as a way to relieve residual stresses, correct winding defects, and improve downstream handling. The practice has applications in textile production, filament winding for composites, and fiber-optic cable assembly, where spool geometry and tension can influence performance and processability.
The receling process typically involves inspecting the current reel, detaching the material from the old core
Benefits of receling include more uniform wind density, reduced risk of tangling, and improved unwinding behavior
