Abstract

An assembly head is used for wrapping a wire harness in an automated manner by means of a winding module. The module has a winding head which rotates about an axis of rotation and, according to a first aspect, has a total of three pressing elements with spring-mounted rollers, which, during the taping process, press a tape against the wire harness and guide the tape in a centering manner. According to a second aspect, a belt drive having a toothed belt is provided for driving the winding head. The toothed belt engages on the circumferential side only in one portion extending over a small angular range.
