ABSTRACT:
A stranding machine for making cables including a core wire supply reel having an axis coextensive with the operating direction; a plurality of strand element supply reels, each having a working position; a take-up reel for receiving the stranded cable containing the core wire taken from the core wire supply reel and the strand elements taken from the strand element supply reels; a rotatably supported stranding yoke having a rotary axis aligned with the axis of said take-up reel; and a plurality of rotatably supported fliers, one associated with the working position of each strand element supply reel. The stranding machine further has at least one electric motor for rotating the stranding yoke with a predetermined, constant rpm, for rotating the take-up reel with a variable rpm, that is a function of the coil diameter of the cable being wound on the take-up reel, the rpm of the stranding yoke and the twist length of the stranded cable, and further, for rotating each strand element supply reel in the working position with an rpm which causes each flier to rotate with an rpm that is identical to the rpm of the stranding yoke.
