61-wire single-twist stranding

$15.00

The productivity of the single-twist machine for stranding is higher than the rigid strander. The strand quality is significantly better than that of a double-twist machine. The set-up time and set-up scrap rate for this process is lower than both alternatives. Combining this performance with a stem input and the use of the Single Input Wire (SIW) strand technology makes this option an attractive alternative to traditional stranding processes. This presentation documents the performance and details the merits of this alternative stranding process.
