ABSTRACT:
A cabled yarn untwister untwists cabled yarn to obtain yarn components. The cabled yarn untwister includes an untwister frame that is rotated by a motorized drive unit (e.g., a hand-held electric drill). The untwister frame is preferably substantially T-shaped and includes a connector leg forming the base of the T-shape and a cross-wise extending yarn attatchment arm. The yarn components are attached to swivels disposed at opposing ends of the yarn attachment arm after which the untwister frame is rotated by the motorized drive unit while maintaining the cabled yarn under tension. Rotation of the untwister frame, in turn, causes the opposing ends of the yarn attachment arm to move in a generally circular orbital path and thereby untwist the individual yarn components of the cabled yarn.
