The first coil component includes a first core and a first coil in which a first wire and a second wire are wound around the first core in a predetermined winding direction while twisted in a predetermined twist direction, and the second coil component includes a second core and a second coil in which the first wire and the second wire are wound around the second core in the predetermined winding direction while twisted in an opposite direction to the predetermined twist direction. Thus, degradation of manufacturing capacity is prevented.

Abstract: A winding apparatus includes a wire position support including a first feeder including a first wire route hole in which a first wire is inserted and a second feeder including a second wire route hole in which a second wire is inserted, and a winding driver that orbitally revolves the wire position support around a core. The wire position support includes a regulator that regulates movement of the first wire and the second wire such that, when the wire position support revolves orbitally around the core, such that the first wire passes on an opening end surface from which the second wire is fed in the second wire route hole while the second wire passes on an opening end surface from which the first wire is fed in the first wire route hole. Accordingly, the wires are prevented from being entangled in the wire position support.

Abstract: A winding apparatus includes a wire position support including first and second wire route hole in which first and second wires, respectively, are inserted, a winding driver that orbitally revolves the wire position support around a core of a coil component such that the first and second wires are wound around the core while twisted, a rotator that rotates the core, and a controller that controls the winding driver and the rotator. The controller performs first control, which orbitally revolves the wire position support in a first direction and rotates the core in an opposite second direction opposite, and second control, which orbitally revolves the wire position support in the second direction and rotates the core in the first direction, and switches between the first and second controls based on a predetermined condition, to prevent a kink of a wire between a wire feeder and a wire position support.

Abstract: A winding apparatus for a coil component in which wires are wound around a core. The winding apparatus includes a wire position support including wire route holes in which the wires are inserted, a wire feeder that feeds the wires to the wire position support such that tension is applied to the wires, a winding driver that orbitally revolves the wire position support around the core such that the wires are wound around the core while twisted, a rotator that rotates the core, and a controller that controls the winding driver and the rotator. The controller controls a rotation direction of the core with regard to an orbital revolution direction of the wire position support and an orbital revolution speed of the wire position support to prevent generation of a kink of a wire between a wire feeder and the wire position support.
