Komax Sigma 688 ST Twister

The Sigma 688 ST enables a fully automated
overall process from processing and twisting to
spot taping the open wire ends. It is the first
automated solution to fulfill OEM quality requirements
for UTP (unshielded twisted pairs)
spot taped in the fully automatic twisting machine.
Economically integrated and automated,
it enables processing of two single wires (bulk
goods) in a single step. At the same time, the
modular system structure offers maximum
flexibility with six stations for process modules
as well as a twisting process and a spot taping
unit consisting of two spot taping modules.
