Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing a wound heat exchanger which has a core tube and a tube bundle, said tube bundle having a plurality of tubes wound about the core tube in a helical manner for conducting a first fluid. The course of the tubes of the tube bundle from a first tube base of the heat exchanger to a second tube base of the heat exchanger about the core tube is automatically calculated, and at least one position at which a respective tube runs according to the calculated course is marked by means of at least one light beam, wherein the respective tube is installed according to the marking.

A method for producing a wound heat exchanger, which has a core tube and a tube bundle, wherein the tube bundle has a plurality of tubes wound helically about the core tube for conducting a first fluid, said method comprising:
- automatically calculating a course of the tubes of the tube bundle from a first tube bottom of the heat exchanger around the core tube to a second tube bottom of the heat exchanger,
- marking by means of a light beam at least one position at which a tube of said plurality of tubes runs according to the calculated course, and
- mounting said tube according to the marking by means of said light beam.
