Tubukar type wire rope twisting machine
Wire rope is a collection of steel strands that have been twisted and wound to form the shape of a helix with the purpose of supporting and lifting heavy loads and performing tasks that are too rigorous for standard wire.
An essential part of the design of wire rope is the required clearance between the strands to give each stand the freedom to move and adjust when the rope bends. It is this unique feature that differentiates wire rope from solid wire and other forms of cable.
The three basic components of wire rope are the wire, strand, and core, which are wound together to form the rope.
WIRE
The basic element of wire rope is wire that is used to configure, shape, and form the rope. Typically galvanized wires are the first choice.
Galvanized steel is coated with zinc as a protection against corrosion and is an affordable alternative to stainless steel.
WIRE STRANDS
The first step in wire rope creation is the production of wire strands where wires are wound around a single core wire. The number of wires included in the strand is dependent on the specified strength, flexibility, and size requirements of the rope. Once the strand is completed, it is straightened before being moved to wire rope construction.
CORE
The core of a wire rope runs through the center of the rope and can be composed of a variety of materials, which include synthetic fibers, natural fibers, a single strand, or another wire rope. The core supports the wound strands, helps maintain their position, is an effective lubricant carrier, and provides support.
