| (54) | Process and apparatus for producing spiral resistors |
| (57) A process for producing spiral electrical resistors, comprises the steps of: winding
a preset length of resistive wire (4) with a presettable pitch around a swift (1)
having adjustable width to obtain a plurality of turns; blocking in position said
turns on at least part (1a) of said swift; reducing the width of said swift; engaging
at least some of said turns with at least an electrically insulating support (19;
23); releasing said turns from said swift; withdrawing the resistor (18; 20) thus
obtained from the swift having reduced width; and repeating said steps, restoring
the original width of the swift before winding the subsequent length of wire. |
