Abstract

A double twist machine uses a reel on which two or more wires have been wound. Guides are provided within the double twist machine for simultaneously guiding all of the wires and imparting two twists to the entire set as the wires proceed through the double twist machine to thereby produce a set of wires twisted about each other which are all simultaneously taken off a single bobbin or reel. The number of wires on each reel and the number of bobbins mounted within the machine may be varied to produce telephone cable twins, triplets, quads and the like. A take-up used in conjunction with a bank of such machines can produce a wide variety of telephone cables.
