A coiling device that includes a coiler (1) having a coiling mandrel (3) for coiling a metal strip, and a coiling swing arm (4) having front and a rear pressure rollers (5, 6) and a deflection plate (7). A swing arm drive (8) lines up the coiling swing arm (4) with the coiling mandrel (3) and is driven away from the coiling mandrel (3). An upper duct flap (9) upstream of the coiler (1) in the feed direction (x) guides the metal strip (2). A flap drive (10) positions the upper duct flap (9) such that, when the coiling swing arm (4) is lined up with the coiling mandrel (3), the upper duct flap is arranged between the coiling mandrel (3) and the front pressure roller (5) of the coiling swing arm (4) or is arranged upstream of the front pressure roller (5) of the coiling swing arm (4).
