Abstract
A method for assembling a metal honeycomb catalyzer carrier includes the steps of winding corrugated belt plate materials into a substantially cylindrical shape, forming a wound structure into a predetermined cylindrical shape with a dieand pushing out a wound honeycomb bodyobtained through the forming from the die and inserting the wound honeycomb bodyinto the interior of a tubular member. An assembling apparatusincludes a winding unitwhich includes, in turn, a rotational holding shaftand a press roller unit, a die unitfor forming a wound structure wound round the rotational holding shaftinto a wound honeycomb bodyof a predetermined cylindrical shape (of an outside diameter Dp), a tube support unitfor setting a tubular memberat an edge of a die surface, and a honeycomb push-out and insertion unitfor pushing out a formed structure from a dieand inserting the formed structure so pushed out into the tubular member
