Abstract
A method of producing a bead inductor includes the steps of forming an outer portion outside of a conductor coil, and forming a molded body with the conductor coil embedded therein. The outer portion is formed outside of the conductor coil by disposing the conductor coil in a cavity defined by first and second mold portions, with first and second gates formed in the first mold portion, inserting first and second spacer pin portions, which define a spacer pin which passes through the conductor coil and extends to and closes the second gate, and supplying material containing magnetic powder into the mold cavity from the first gate. The molded body is formed by closing the first gate after the formation of the outer portion, and supplying from the second gate material containing magnetic powder into a space formed by removing the spacer pin portions.
