METHOD FOR ENCASING A BODY OF AN EXHAUST GAS SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a method for encasing a body 10 of an exhaust gas system 1 with a housing which is wound around the body 10. Using a winding method, the body 10 is placed in a loop 30 formed by a belt-shaped conveyor element 3 that can be driven in a conveyor device 33, wherein the conveyor element 3 is seated against the outer casing face 16 at a wrapping angle u of at least 270 degrees. Starting with a first edge 21, the metal strip 20 is then introduced in a conveyor device 33 between the body 10 and the conveyor element 3, is drawn into the gap 4 between the body 10 and the conveyor element 3 and is bent around the body 10 until the body 10 is encased at least twice by the metal strip 20.
