Little Hornet
User friendly right out of the box
Our basic winder, perfect for composite part development.
The Little Hornet is McClean Anderson’s compact, entry level filament winder. The Little Hornet features 2-axes of computer-controlled motion driven by the Windows® based Ocelot machine control. The system is further enhanced with our Windows®-based SimWind pattern development software. The WLH is uniquely matched for both R&D and production environments.

Machine Control
McClean Anderson’s Ocelot machine control system is a PC / PLC based system that makes filament winding simpler, faster and more accurate. Since the system is PC-based, users can develop and edit programs right at the control with SimWind part development software – even while winding!
Software
McClean Anderson’s SimWind is an advanced offline software programming tool used for designing and modeling complex filament wound structures. During part program development, winding simulations can be rendered.
