ABSTRACT:
A method of and apparatus for laying-up hoses and electrical cable cores in which the hoses and cores are initially laid out horizontally and threaded through tubes extending between a plurality of lay plates. The hoses and cores are pulled from the tubes while the lay plates are rotated synchronously to form a laid-up unit. The tubes are freely rotatable with respect to the lay plates, so that the hoses and cores are themselves twist free in the laid-up unit. The horizontal arrangement avoids the need for the hoses to be wound on enormous bobbins and laid up using conventional laying-up techniques.
