ABSTRACT:
A stranded rope (12) of large size is made by assembling a plurality of strands (10) and a core (11) side-by-side along a track (13); securing the leading ends in a clamp (14); securing the trailing ends in spaced anchorages (17, 18); applying tension to the strands (10) and core (11); guiding the strands (10) intermediate the clamp (14) and anchorages (17, 18) into the closed rope array round the core (11) by means of a closing die (20) on a trolley (19); moving the trolley (19) from the clamp (14) to the anchorages (17, 18); rotating the clamp (14) progressively as the trolley (19) moves progressively; rotating the trailing ends of the strands (10) and core (11) progressively in the same direction as the clamp (14); securing all the strands (10) and the core (11) together adjacent the trailing ends; and releasing the tension from the strands and the core.
