Scope note
Mechanized devices, comprising a series of rotating stranders and a take-up package mounted on a rotating frame, designed to produce three- or four-strand ropes out of synthetic, natural, and other types of fibers. To produce the rope, fiber strands are fed into the device's rotating stranders which are then fed into the take-up package which carries out a two-for-one twisting action.
