This rotating equipment gathers individual copper or aluminum wires and applies a specific twist or lay length to form a stranded core. The process improves the flexibility and fatigue resistance of the final cable compared to a solid wire. Operators must monitor tension and spool speeds to prevent wire breaks or uneven stranding.
Heard on the job
Thread those spools carefully because the buncher will snap the 30 AWG strands if the tension is too high.
