Apparatus and Method for Making an Antenna for a Radiofrequency Identifying Device

Abstract

An apparatus for making an antenna for wire transponders of electrically conductive material, comprising at least one depositing device for depositing said wire on a substrate placed on a support element, said at least one depositing device and said substrate being movable with respect to each other; said support element being movable along directions parallel to at least two axis of a Cartesian reference system. A method for making an antenna comprising providing a substrate intended to receive said antenna, providing a lamina or wire of electrically conductive material wound on at least one reel, unwinding said lamina, or said wire from said at least one reel, pressing said lamina, or wire, on a surface of said substrate by means of at least one pressing element, fixing said lamina, or wire, to said substrate, separating, by means of at least one cutting device a stretch of lamina, or wire, fixed to said substrate from the remaining lamina, or wire, wound on said at least one reel, said substrate being movable with respect to an assembly comprised of said at least one reel, said at least one pressing and said at least one cutting device, along at least one direction substantially parallel to an axis of a Cartesian reference system.
