Abstract

A method of winding a conductor in double pancake, including a first pancake and a second pancake, a reel initially containing the conductor, the method including: a first step in which the reel is placed on a tensioner and a first portion of the conductor is wound around a storage volume; a second step in which a first part of the conductor is inserted in a winding mandrel to change the layer; a third step in which a second portion of the conductor is wound around a first part of the storage volume so as to form a first pancake; a fourth step in which the first portion of the conductor is unwound from the storage volume and is wound around the reel; and a fifth step in which the first portion of the conductor is wound around a second part of the storage volume to form a second pancake.
