THIRTY-TWO STRAND CORDAGE MACHINE. Afine study of the mechanical motions required in this complicated. mechanism for the manufacture of so simple a thing as a rope. Fourstrands, each composed of eight yarn strands. The tension of the finished rope and its winding on by the reel ata uniform rate with the twisting speed of the machine is a mostimportant feature ; and is operated by means of two grooved drumsplaced tandem, over which the rope is wound twice to give it a fric-tional pull. The drums are rotated by a fore and aft shaft and gear-ing from the main driving shaft. The reel is revolved by a frictionbelt, which allows for varying its speed for equal tension of the ropeas the reel fills up. TEXTILE AND MANUFACTURING DEVICES, ETC. 317
