Winding fixing device

A method for fixing a hollow-cylindrical high-voltage winding in a winding fixing device, the method comprising:

• horizontally arranging a first plate-like retaining element on a horizontal working surface;
• positioning a pillar-like element in a vertical position and connecting the pillar-like element to the first plate-like retaining element;
• arranging at least one lower bearing element on the first plate-like retaining element;
• arranging spacing elements along the pillar-like element;
• arranging a hollow-cylindrical high-voltage winding in a positioning region and radially fixing the hollow-cylindrical high-voltage winding in the positioning region;
• arranging at least one upper bearing element on the hollow-cylindrical high-voltage winding;
• arranging a second plate-like retaining element in a horizontal position above the at least one upper bearing element;
• applying an axial tensile force between the retaining elements;
• and
• tilting the winding fixing device into a horizontal transportation position.
