Abstract

A stranding process for producing a cable made up of multiple groups of plied filaments being fed from linear feed positions located along a common twisting axis, said process including steps wherein at least one of the groups is plied and twisted according to the double-twist principle and all of the groups are then plied and twisted together by the cable-twist principle in a common twisting zone. A specific combination of apparatus is provided to carry out the required plying and stranding steps in a single operation.
