1. A method for producing a reinforcing profile from at least one layer, comprising:
cutting the at least one layer from a preimpregnated fibrous web;
applying the at least one layer to a mould core to determine a shape of the reinforcing profile;
retaining the at least one layer on the mould core in an application region; and
starting from the application region, pressing the at least one layer against the mould core progressively transversely to a longitudinal direction of the reinforcing profile as far as longitudinal edges of the reinforcing profile, wherein the layer is pressed incrementally progressively so as to be shaped onto the mould core, in a longitudinal direction thereof, using moulding punches which are arranged offset from one another both in a circumferential direction and in the longitudinal direction of the mould core and are able to be forced in a direction of the moulding faces of the mould core.
