An adapter for a caddy, to carry bobbin sleeves of different lengths, has a holding spindle (6) on the caddy (1) with a stepped structure (8, 9) at the base to allow for cops and empty sleeves (10, 13) of different lengths (L, l) and inner diameters (D, d) at the bottom (11) of the sleeve. The diameter (D, d) of the holding spindle at the steps (8, 9) is set so that the longer sleeve (10) rests on...

The monitor involves a moving yarn (3) with paraffin and has a yarn guide after the paraffin applicator at a heat sensor (11), where the yarn passes through with friction contact. The signal (b) from the sensor (11) represents the friction heat generated at the guide, which is passed to a signal processing unit (16). The level of the heat signal indicates whether the yarn has been coated with para...

A process for checking thread profile when re-starting spinning in an open-end spinning machine entails measuring the profile in the vicinity of the thread join drawn out of the spinning point after start-up and testing it for deviations against predetermined limits based on an acceptable deviation from the normal thread, i.e. a thread section uninfluenced by the start-up join. The thread is sub...

To test the profile of a running yarn at an open end spinner, on splicing a broken yarn, the spliced yarn is drawn out of the spinning point into the splicer, to be drawn for a length equal to the length of the circumference of the rotor groove. The splicer gives a characteristic yarn profile divided into three different length sections (3a-3c) of a defined length. The yarn profile is evaluated in...

The present invention, in one form, is a method for determining and applying a ZCAL correction vector to the channel outputs from the detector array in a multi-slice CT system. More specifically, and in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the signal gain for each detector cell, or channel, at multiple z-axis locations is measured. For each channel, a correction polynomial Qn i...

The position determination system (50) has an X-ray source (14) with a focal point (60), and at least two rows of detection unit cells (52,54), which are moved along the z axis.
