Drumtwister for cable production

A drumtwister is an assembling machine for conducting one of the final steps in cable production. It is used to strand together the competed components of a cable. To do this the components (ie. sector shaped power cable conductors, or bundles of telecommunication cables) are being payed-off from either also rotating or stationary pay-offs, and then being taken-up by the drumtwister, which rotates around it's own axis while doing so. This causes the components to be stranded together. A drumtwister can also be used to amour a cable. To do this a layer of steel wires can be stranded around a finished cable construction in order to protect it against mechanical stress.

Taken all things in consideration a drumtwister is a very versatile strading machine for the cable industry.
