High-efficiency armored cable, method and apparatus for making the same

摘要

Method for making a cable, particularly a so called armored cable, comprising following steps:
A- providing a rope (3) constituting the core of said armored cable
B- providing at least an armor winding band-like member (1)
wherein
said armor winding band-like member is a so called preformed band (2) i.e. bent substantially about the longitudinal axis of the band and/or an axis parallel to the axis of longitudinal development of the band, and comprising in addition the step of
D- covering said rope by winding at least one, preferably two, preformed bands (2) such that the concave region of the bend of said preformed band is faced towards the rope.
