Abstract

A horizontally elongated machine for twisting a plurality of different yarns has at least one longitudinally extending drive shaft. A plurality of horizontally extending and vertically spaced rows of twisters is provided on each side of the machine with each twister being rotatable about a respective axis perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the machine. The twisters are driven in groups of two or four by a common flat belt spanned over the respective whorls of the twisters and over a single drive pulley on the drive shaft. A takeup device for each of the twisters is provided directly above the twister.
