Modern machines for production of steel strand and rope with direct cabling and indirect double-twist cabling

$15.00

Indirect cabling is the method by which wires or simple strands are twisted around their own axes (twisting of the wires and double twisting of the strands). These twists become double twists around the axis of the cord. The unique feature of the twisting machine discussed in this paper is the application of double twisting to the concept of indirect cabling (back twisting). This paper includes a comparison of some parameters between the double twist machine and the tubular machine.
