It should first be noted that finished steel wire rope produced by BWWR has previously gone through two main production stages, namely: (i) a given number of individual steel wires are first twisted into what is known as a ‘stranded wire’, and (ii) a given number of such stranded wires formed from individual steel wires are then twisted together to form the finished steel wire rope.
Esiteks tuleb märkida, et BWWRi toodetud valmisterastross läbib eelnevalt kaks peamist tootmisetappi, nimelt (i) esiteks põimitakse teatav arv terastraate keerutatud traadiks ning (ii) teatav arv terastraatidest moodustatud keerutatud traate põimitakse kokku valmisterastrossiks.
