Dual Inline (Twister) Braider

Advanced Braiding and Twisting Solution for High-Precision Manufacturing

Steeger USA introduces the Dual Inline (Twister) Braider — model KTM-18-HS80-12 — a cutting-edge system designed to braid multiple components and twist them together into a single unified structure. This innovative technology enables manufacturers to produce complex, multi-layered braided materials with unmatched efficiency and precision. Engineered for versatility, the Twister Braider is ideal for applications in medical devices, aerospace, automotive, and telecommunications.

Key Features of the Dual Inline (Twister) Braider

1. Multi-Braid Integration: Braids multiple strands simultaneously and twists them into a single, cohesive structure.
2. Compact Inline Design: Combines braiding and twisting functions into a streamlined system for optimized floor space.
3. Customizable Twisting Patterns: Supports a wide range of twist angles and configurations to meet unique application requirements.
4. Precision Tension Control: Ensures consistent tension across all strands and layers for uniform braiding and twisting.
5. User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive HMI (Human-Machine Interface) for real-time monitoring, recipe management, and easy adjustments.

Potential Applications of the Dual Inline (Twister) Braider

The Twister Braider is ideal for creating multi-layered, twisted braided structures used in:
