Abstract
A twister adapted for the manufacture of cordage on which yarns are twisted in opposite directions in the continuous processes of plying and cabling, wherein the twisted yarns are finally wound on a bobbin under a constant stretching action irrespective of an increase in the outside diameter of the bobbin, thereby eliminating the necessity of doffing between the plying and the cabling processes.
Claims2
An apparatus for the manufacture of twisted yarns and cordage which comprises a plurality of double twisters disposed in juxtaposition with respect to each other and a single cable double twister disposed above said plurality of twisters and containing a power-driven bobbin rotatably disposed therein, means associated with said bobbin for controlling the torque in said bobbin so as to ensure a constant stretch of the yarns and a plurality of feed rollers and tension adjuster rollers disposed between said double twisters and said single cable double twister for conveying the yarn from said plurality of twisters to said single-cable double twister.
