A winding machine for manufacturing transformer cores includes a ribbon-dispensing assembly which travels in a predetermined path about a stationary mandrel to deposit successive layers of ribbon upon the mandrel under controlled tension while applying transverse pressure to the peripheral surface of the winding to press air from between the layers. In the preferred embodiment, a counterbalanced rotating track engages the ribbon-dispensing assembly as it travels around the mandrel. The ribbon dispensing assembly is preferably transported by a chain drive.
