SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AN ELECTRIC HEATER

摘要

The invention relates to a method and a system of manufacturing an electric heater (1) intended for heating foam-moulded cushions for e.g. vehicle seats or mattresses, said heater (1) comprising an electric conductor (2) which preferably consists of an insulated or non-insulated metal wire. The method comprises the steps of arranging a plurality of protruding members (10) forming part of a conductor layout structure (9) in a pattern adapted to the configuration of the heater (1), arranging a conveyor (13) which is equipped with a follower (14) along a track (13) which essentially corresponds to the desired configuration of the heater (1) around said protruding member (10), and moving said conveyor (13) while said follower (14) deposits said conductor (2) along said track.
