ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for winding continuously produced cable about a take-up spool includes a frame, a traveler assembly, multiple take-up spool assemblies, and a translation system for automatically moving the traveler assembly into an aligned position with each spool assembly. The traveler assembly is movably mounted to the frame for receiving and for paying out continuously produced cable. Each spool assembly comprises a pair of opposing arms and a cable snagger. Each pair of opposing arms is configured to rotatably mount a spool therebetween. The cable snagger is secured to a member rotatably mounted on one arm and is configured to extend through an aperture in a flange of a spool in order to engage a free end of a continuously produced cable. A release mechanism for disengaging the snagger from the cable, once at least one wrap of the cable has been wound about the spool, is also provided.
