The invention relates to a twisting
machine, in particular to a twisting
machine used for compound double twisting. The twisting
machine comprises a frame, wherein the frame is provided with a driving transmission mechanism, at least one twisting device and a
yarn winding device corresponding to the twisting device; the twisting device contains at least two double twisting spindles and one compound twisting spindle, the double twisting spindles are parallel to each other and fixed on the mounting plate of the compound twisting spindle; a first-twist
bolster is fixed on the mounting plate, a compound twisting spindle whorl is driven by the driving transmission mechanism, the compound twisting transmission wheel is connected with a a first-twist spindle whorl which rotates in the reverse direction of the compound twisting transmission wheel, through a
transmission belt; and parallel grooves are arranged on the external circumference of at least one of the compound twisting transmission wheel and the first-twist spindle whorl. The invention mainly provides the twisting machine used for compound double twisting which has simple structure and can perform four processes to multiple strands of
raw material yarn on the same platform simultaneously, namely first-twist and double twisting, combination, compound twisting and double twisting in reverse direction, and winding; the production process flow is greatly shortened, the working time is reduced, the production cost is saved, the
yarn quality is remarkably increased; and the technical problems of the prior art that the twisting machine can only perform one process, the structure of the integrated twisting machine is huge and complicated and the degree of twist is inconvenient to adjust, can be solved.
