Abstract (en)

[origin: DE10103892A1] To optimize the yarn take-off speed from a creel, where the yarns are taken over the head of the bobbins and around deflector at tensioning grids, the size of the yarn balloons are registered by a monitor at least at one bobbin. The size of the yarn balloon is modified by altering the take-off speed, according to the monitor measurements, to an adjusted setting between maximum and minimum balloon dimensions. To optimize the yarn take-off speed, at a creel, the yarn balloon dimension is measured on a tangent or breach of the given dimensions at the minimum or maximum balloon size, with measurements taken on a breach of the maximum/minimum thresholds. The yarn balloon size is measured at least at two bobbins, and the adjustment is made to the yarn balloon with the larger dimensions, and the adjustment action ends on reaching the maximum yarn take-off speed. The yarn draw tension is measured, and the balloon size adjustment action ends when the yarn tension is at a maximum level. The gap between the yarn deflection points and the bobbins (10) is altered in steps. The balloon size is adjusted after each step by resetting the take-off speed. An independent claim is included for an assembly to control the yarn take-off speed from the bobbins in a creel, to be passed over deflection points. Preferred Features: The monitors to measure the yarn balloon dimensions are connected to a control unit, which is linked to a speed control. The monitor is located at a gap of half the interval (T2) of the creel to a bobbin axis (26), with two monitors for two bobbins or one monitor covers at least two bobbins. The control unit has a link to a yarn tension monitor, and a connection to the drive at the tensioning grid.
