Abstract

A method and a device for placing wire windings onto a conveyor belt, particularly onto a Stelmor conveyor belt, wherein the wire windings are placed on the conveyor belt in an actual position relative to the belt middle. The wire windings are placed on the conveyor belt in a position-controlled manner relative to the belt middle. The device for carrying out the method includes a sensor for determining the actual position of the wire windings on the conveyor belt and a control unit, - wherein an actual position and a nominal position are supplied to the control unit and the control unit determines from the difference between the actual position and the nominal position a control signal for the control element and supplies this signal to the control element.
