The method enables the production of a final assembly (A) comprising two layers and comprises a step (100) of providing a temporary assembly (AT) comprising a temporary core (NT), a step (124) of separating the temporary assembly (AT) into a first divided assembly (AFI), a second divided assembly (AF2), a third divided assembly (AF3) and the temporary core (NT). The method comprises a step (135) of reassembling the first divided assembly (AFI), the second divided assembly (AF2) and the third divided assembly (AF3) to form the final assembly (A).

A method for producing a wire cable with a core cable or core strand, the method including the steps of: prior to stranding an outer strand layer, applying an intermediate layer of a plastic material to the core cable or core strand; pressing the outer layer into the plastic material during stranding; and, hammering the wire cable, after the outer strand layer has been stranded, to increase the space factor of the wire cable, wherein the hammering step includes hammering with hammers that are moved from different sides toward the wire cable and essentially completely surround the wire cable with adapted curvatures at the instant of their simultaneous impact.

A method of manufacturing an assembled conductor includes: arranging a plurality of peripheral wires having anisotropic cross-sectional shapes around a central wire; bundling the central wire and the peripheral wires that have been arranged, to form a conducting wire bundle; and rolling the conducting wire bundle to form the assembled conductor. The arranging includes a bending process for bending the plurality of peripheral wires in directions along imaginary lines that extend radially relative to an axis of the central wire on an imaginary plane intersecting the axis of the central wire.

A cord (50) comprises a single layer (52) made up of N helically wound metal filamentary elements (54) having an outer diameter D, the metal filamentary elements (54) defining an internal enclosure (58) of the cord of diameter Dv. Each metal filamentary element (54) has a diameter Df and a helix radius of curvature Rf. With this cord (50), D, Dv, Df and Rf being expressed in millimeters: 0.10?Jr?0.25, 9?Rf/Df?30, and 1.60?Dv/Df?3.20, where Jr=N/(?*(D?Df))?(Dh?Sin(?/N)?(Df/Cos(???/180))) and ? is the helix angle, expressed in degrees, of each metal filamentary element (54).

A rope and a method of constructing the rope. The rope may be of 1212 braided construction and include a core for its length. The rope includes a plurality of primary strands, and each of the primary strands includes a plurality of fibers which may be made of a high-friction material. The rope also includes a secondary strand surrounded by the plurality of primary strands. The secondary strand includes a plurality of fibers which may be made of a low-friction material.

The present invention provides a braiding machine and a braiding method of a tail-pulling rope. The braiding machine of the tail-pulling rope comprises a machine frame, two gallop knitting trays, a plurality of gallop knitting ingots and a rope belt braiding mechanism. The gallop knitting trays are located on the machine frame, and the gallop knitting ingots are mounted on the gallop knitting trays, wherein the rope belt braiding mechanism comprises a turbine speed change mechanism, two belt wheels and two transmission wheels.

A method for making a suspension cable to a desired length is provided. The method includes providing an initial pin hole on a tab of a socket associated with the cable. The method includes stretching the cable to a desired percentage of a rated breaking strength of the cable. The method includes measuring a length of the cable. The method includes determining a position of a final pin hole to be formed on the tab based on the measured length of the cable and a predefined tolerance. The method includes creating the final pin hole at the determined position.

A device for producing a strand or a cable, in particular a wire strand or wire cable, which device includes a rotatable arrangement for feeding cords to a twisting point, at which the cords are to be twisted with one another, and an installation for heating at least one of the cords. The heating installation is rotatable jointly with the feed arrangement. The heating installation is designed to heat a cord provided for forming a center strand or a cable core and/or cords for forming outer strands, and preferably has burner for fuel and/or an electrically operated heater.
