  • Patent number: 7434381
    Abstract: A machine for manufacturing a cord consisting of twisted metallic wires comprises a pair of crimping wheels with meshing toothed surfaces for crimping a plurality of wires when they are passed between said meshing toothed surfaces, and a twisting means for twisting together the wires along a twisting path downstream of the pair of twisting wheels. The pair of crimping wheels is arranged at the beginning of the twisting path and the twisting together of the wires preferably starts between the meshing toothed surfaces.
