Abstract
A device for forming loops from a wire strand emerging from a wire rolling train using a rotating looper, wherein the device includes a conveyor onto which the loops are placed while the conveyor is moving, wherein a driving unit, a looper and a roller conveyor, a chain conveyor or the like, are arranged following the wire rolling train and wherein the driving unit and possibly also the looper are arranged inclined relative to the horizontal. The driving unit and the looper are arranged at a fixed predetermined angle of inclination relative to the horizontal, while the conveyor on which the loops are placed is constructed so that its angle is adjustable relative to the horizontal.
