A turret-type yarn winding apparatus comprising: a turret unit rotatably mounted on a machine frame; a plurality of spindles provided on the turret unit with an axial direction arranged in parallel to each other, the spindle being configured to wind a yarn member on a bobbin attached to the spindle by axial rotation; a traverse guide configured to traverse the yarn member with respect to the bobbin attached to the spindle on a winding side while reciprocating between a first turn-back position on a tip end side of the spindle and a second turn-back position on a base end side of the spindle along an axial direction of the spindle; a gripping mechanism provided to the spindle to grip the yarn member fed from the traverse guide at a predetermined gripping position; and a control unit configured to control rotation of the turret unit, axial rotation of the spindle, a reciprocating motion of the traverse guide, and gripping of the yarn member by the gripping mechanism, wherein when a yarn member is wound on the bobbin attached to the spindle on the winding side and the bobbin has reached a predetermined wound yarn amount and the bobbin has become full, the turret unit rotates to switch between the spindle on the winding side and the spindle on the standby side, the yarn member is gripped by the gripping mechanism of a newly provided spindle on the winding side, and then the yarn member is wound on an empty bobbin attached to the newly provided spindle on the winding side, characterized in that in order for the traverse guide to reach a gripping position of the yarn member when switching between the spindle on the winding side and the spindle on the standby side has been completed, and the control unit calculates a moving speed and/or a moving path of the traverse guide, based on a time for switching between the spindle on the winding side and the spindle on the standby side when the yarn member wound on the bobbin attached to the spindle on the winding side has reached a predetermined wound yarn amount and the bobbin has become full, and moves the traverse guide at the moving speed and/or along the moving path. a turret unit rotatably mounted on a machine frame; a plurality of spindles provided on the turret unit with an axial direction arranged in parallel to each other, the spindle being configured to wind a yarn member on a bobbin attached to the spindle by axial rotation; a traverse guide configured to traverse the yarn member with respect to the bobbin attached to the spindle on a winding side while reciprocating between a first turn-back position on a tip end side of the spindle and a second turn-back position on a base end side of the spindle along an axial direction of the spindle; a gripping mechanism provided to the spindle to grip the yarn member fed from the traverse guide at a predetermined gripping position; and a control unit configured to control rotation of the turret unit, axial rotation of the spindle, a reciprocating motion of the traverse guide, and gripping of the yarn member by the gripping mechanism, wherein when a yarn member is wound on the bobbin attached to the spindle on the winding side and the bobbin has reached a predetermined wound yarn amount and the bobbin has become full, the turret unit rotates to switch between the spindle on the winding side and the spindle on the standby side, the yarn member is gripped by the gripping mechanism of a newly provided spindle on the winding side, and then the yarn member is wound on an empty bobbin attached to the newly provided spindle on the winding side, characterized in that in order for the traverse guide to reach a gripping position of the yarn member when switching between the spindle on the winding side and the spindle on the standby side has been completed, and the control unit calculates a moving speed and/or a moving path of the traverse guide, based on a time for switching between the spindle on the winding side and the spindle on the standby side when the yarn member wound on the bobbin attached to the spindle on the winding side has reached a predetermined wound yarn amount and the bobbin has become full, and moves the traverse guide at the moving speed and/or along the moving path. calculates a moving speed and/or a moving path of the traverse guide, based on a time for switching between the spindle on the winding side and the spindle on the standby side when the yarn member wound on the bobbin attached to the spindle on the winding side has reached a predetermined wound yarn amount and the bobbin has become full, and moves the traverse guide at the moving speed and/or along the moving path.
