Abstract: A winding apparatus comprises a shaping element arranged immediately after an input unit in a filament running direction. The shaping element has a guide surface bearing on the outside of plastic filament and aligned to be inclined with respect to a filament transport axis of the input unit so that the plastic filament can be shaped continuously with a radius of curvature greater than a cross-sectional radius of plastic filament. A winding apparatus comprises an input unit through which plastic filament is supplied to a shaping unit. The plastic filament is shaped into helix by shaping element(s) having a filament guide surface. The shaping element is arranged immediately after the input unit in the filament running direction. The guide surface of shaping element bears on the outside of plastic filament and is aligned to be inclined with respect to a filament transport axis of the input unit so that the plastic filament can be shaped continuously with a radius of curvature greater than a cross-sectional radius of plastic filament and smaller than a helix radius in the finished state (e.g. smaller than half the helix radius). An independent claim is also included for production of plastic helices by continuously cold-shaping plastic filament(s).
