Device for winding up a metallic strip to form a coil, comprising: a coiler with a coiler mandrel for winding up the strip; a driver, which is mounted upstream of the coiler as seen in transport direction of the strip, for conveying the strip into the coiler; a bending device, which is arranged between the driver and the coiler, with a first and a second counter bending roller (132, 134) for supporting the strip on its way to the coiler at its upper side and with a bending roller for supporting the strip at its lower side, wherein the first counter bending roller is mounted upstream of the second counter bending roller and wherein the bending device further comprises a first adjusting device for the bending roller and a second adjusting device for the second counter-bending roller; and a control device for controlling the first adjusting device and the second adjusting device so that the bending roller is movable between a bending position, in which the strip is bent by co-operation of the first and second counter bending rollers (132, 134) and the bending roller, and a retracted position; characterised in that the first counter bending roller as a roller path roller of a roller path extending above the coiler is mounted to be rotatable, but in fixed position; a frame in which the second counter bending roller is mounted to be rotatable is provided; a rotary joint is provided for coupling the second adjusting device to the frame; and the control device is further constructed for pivoting the frame with the second counter bearing roller between a coiler shaft position and a roller path position in which the second bending counter roller is arranged near the first counter bending roller as a roller path roller of the roller path of the device. a coiler with a coiler mandrel for winding up the strip; a driver, which is mounted upstream of the coiler as seen in transport direction of the strip, for conveying the strip into the coiler; a bending device, which is arranged between the driver and the coiler, with a first and a second counter bending roller (132, 134) for supporting the strip on its way to the coiler at its upper side and with a bending roller for supporting the strip at its lower side, wherein the first counter bending roller is mounted upstream of the second counter bending roller and wherein the bending device further comprises a first adjusting device for the bending roller and a second adjusting device for the second counter-bending roller; and a control device for controlling the first adjusting device and the second adjusting device so that the bending roller is movable between a bending position, in which the strip is bent by co-operation of the first and second counter bending rollers (132, 134) and the bending roller, and a retracted position; characterised in that the first counter bending roller as a roller path roller of a roller path extending above the coiler is mounted to be rotatable, but in fixed position; a frame in which the second counter bending roller is mounted to be rotatable is provided; a rotary joint is provided for coupling the second adjusting device to the frame; and the control device is further constructed for pivoting the frame with the second counter bearing roller between a coiler shaft position and a roller path position in which the second bending counter roller is arranged near the first counter bending roller as a roller path roller of the roller path of the device.
