Abstract (en)

Wire stranding apparatus for giving a periodic reverse twisting operation, in which a rotationally flexible elongate member, preferably a rod (10), carries wire guiding elements (12) extending radially outwardly from it. Each element has guide holes (14) for wires (16) as they are passed along the rod. Stranding is done by holding an upstream end of the rod stationary and while the wires are moved along guide paths, the downstream end of the rod is rotated for a predetermined number of revolutions about its axis alternately in one direction and then the other. Wires are thus stranded in alternating directions.
