Abstract
A method and apparatus for fabricating a curved disc-shaped magnet coil, especially for particle accelerators. The conductor is wound around a coil form which has a convex outside and a concave inside with therefore a partly negative curvature, using elements pressing the conductor onto the inside of the coil form or the conductor turns already in place. The conductor is fixed in its position after the winding process. In order to wind the magnet coil quasi continuously, the conductor is applied to the coil form or the conductor turns already present under tension in the region of the convex outside and, in the region of the concave inside, pressure elements are provided which are guided along on the inside and wind the conductor under relatively reduced tension. The pressure elements are spaced from each other at least largely regularly, exert a predetermined radial pressure, and are held there until the conductor is fixed in position.
