ABSTRACT:
Apparatus (1) for stranding armor wires (11) about a cable core (10), the apparatus comprising a rotary plate (2) equipped with armor wire bobbins (3), a rotary distributer grid (4) driven by the plate, and a stranding die (5) for bringing together the armor wires around the cable core. The improvement lies in the apparatus including a coupling (20) situated between the plate and the distribution grid, together with a brake (40) for stopping the distribution grid. If a stranding operation is interrupted, the distribution grid is braked and stopped in time with the cable core stopping its longitudinal movement, leaving the plate to continue to rotate for a turn or more under its own inertia. Excess twist is thus prevented from crushing the cable core.
