Abstract
A method and machine whereby a continuous-thread disk element from which to form composite materials is formed by winding a thread of reinforcing material about an axis to form a flat coil having a number of turns, and by locking the turns with respect to one another by means of binding threads wound about each turn; the turns being equally spaced with a given spacing by forming, simultaneously with the formation of the coil, a further two flat coils of spacer thread, which are removed from the reinforcing-thread coil once the binding threads are wound about the turns.
