Abstract: The yarn sheet (1) of a finished yarn winding (2) for example on a warping machine is with the help of a transfer means (8) transferred onto a winding beam (3) for example of a beaming machine. The transfer means with this has a suspension rod (9) which preferably can be displaced on a transport chain pair (10) along an advance path from the region of the yarn winding (2) to the region of the winding beam (3).

Abstract: On a sectional warping machine, the dividing-shed formation for introducing a dividing element is controlled in such a way that at least one yarn sensor (18, 18') is introduced transversely to the running direction of the shed warp (11, 12) into the opened dividing shed (15). The yarn sensor generates a control signal on detecting an incorrectly arranged yarn (34) in the feed area. The yarn sensor is preferably introduced into the dividing shed (15) together with a motor-driven element transporter (13), wherein the drive of the element transporter can be switched off and/or reversed by the control signal.

Abstract: On the warping machine (12) the width (11) of the yarn strip (10) is continuously monitored by means of a line camera (25). The measured strip width is compared in a processor (32) to a stored reference value, with deviations forming a control signal for activating a control motor (35) at the warping reed (9). That ensures continuous strip width regulation, at full winding speed.
