An method for producing a disk winding having disks arranged alongside one another, includes winding the disk winding and fitting intermediate insulation between adjacent disks simultaneously, and subdividing the insulation into two sub-areas with a connecting conductor that runs from an end of one disk to a start of an adjacent disk along a diagonal within the intermediate insulation. The sub-areas can include a first intermediate area with a triangular cross-section formed below this diagonal and a second intermediate area which has an opposite triangular cross-section and formed above this diagonal.
