Abstract
A method for producing a strand or cable, in which fibers and/or wires are twisted at a twisting point to form the strand or cable. The fibers and/or wires are coated with a liquefied matrix material before and/or at the twisting point and are embedded in the matrix material during twisting. The fibers and/or wires are immersed in the matrix material before and/or at the twisting point and the formed strand or the formed cable is cooled after the twisting in order for the matrix material to solidify, preferably by air or in a cooling liquid, for example water.

A method for producing a strand or a cable, comprising the steps of:
- forming fibers and/or wires into the strand or the cable at a cabling point;
- coating the fibers and/or the wires with a liquefied matrix material before or at the cabling point;
- and embedding the fibers and/or the wires in the matrix material during cabling.
A cable, comprising:
- wires;
- fibers;
- and/or twisted monofilament bundles of fibers, at least certain sections of the wires, the fibers, and/or the monofilament bundles are embedded in a matrix material.
An apparatus for producing a strand or a cable, comprising:
- a device for supplying fibers and/or wires to a cabling point and for forming the fibers and/or the wires into a cable at the cabling point;
- and a device for coating the fibers and/or the wires before and/or at the cabling point with a liquefied matrix material into which the fibers and/or the wires are embedded.
