Apparatus for forming a toroid coil on a toroidal body comprising a wire feeder for feeding the wire forward in the direction of its length toward the toroidal body. The wire is fed along a path which at the toroidal body is generally tangent to the surface of the toroidal body and nonparallel to the radial plane of the toroidal body. A die having a wire forming path defined therein constrains the wire to bend as it is fed forward into the convolutions of a helix extending through the opening in the toroidal body and advancing circumferentially around the toroidal body to form the toroid coil.
