A heating coil production system for producing heating coils for electronic vaporizers includes a conductor that has a first end and a second end. An anchor is provided and the anchor is selectively positioned on a support surface. The second end of the conductor is removably coupled to the anchor. A rotation unit is provided and the rotation unit is selectively positioned on the support surface and the rotation unit is selectively turned on and off. The first end of the conductor is selectively coupled to the rotation unit and the rotation unit twists the conductor into a coil when the rotation unit is turned on. The resulting coil is positioned in an electronic smoking device for a heating element.
