Abstract:
A method of winding a continuously advancing textile yarn into a core supported package, comprising the steps ofguiding the advancing yarn onto a rotating core by a traversing yarn guide which moves within a traverse stroke and so that during each traverse stroke the traversing yarn guide is accelerated by a predetermined acceleration to a predetermined guiding speed within a reversal length at one end of the traverse stroke, decelerated from the predetermined guiding speed by a predetermined deceleration within a second reversal length at the opposite end of the traverse stroke, and maintained at said predetermined guiding speed along a linear length extending between said reversal lengths, andchanging at least one of the acceleration and the deceleration of the yarn guide during at least some of the traverse strokes so as to change the extent of the associated reversal lengths and so that the deposit of the yarn onto the package is varied at least one of the package ends.
