A winding device for winding a fiber coil, comprising
- a coil carrier for wrapping with fiber in order to produce a coil body made of wound fiber;
- a fiber feeder for feeding a fiber for wrapping the coil carrier;
- and
- an adhesive device which is suitable for producing individual droplets of adhesive and for conveying each of the individual droplets of the adhesive in a substantially horizontal direction to a specific predetermined position on the outermost layer of fiber on the coil body to produce individual adhesive dots thereon and to bond the outermost layer of fiber on the coil body to fiber newly placed onto the coil body.
