Abstract
Two packages of yarn with transfer tails are produced simultaneously on a winder wherein the winder has a driven friction roll, a dual traversing means with two traverse guides and two bobbins on a chuck and wherein the chuck is positioned adjacent the traversing means and the friction roll is positioned adjacent the traverse guides and against the chuck, by passing two yarns between the traversing means and the friction roll and then between the chuck and the friction roll while holding the yarns approximately in the center of the traversing means and out of the traverse guides; passing the yarns partially around the bobbins on the chuck, and while holding the yarns partially off the surface of the bobbins, passing the yarns between the traversing means and the chuck and again between the chuck and the friction roll; then while holding the ends of the yarns approximately in the center of the chuck, releasing that portion of the yarns held off the surface of the bobbins thereby winding the transfer tails; and after the transfer tails are wound, releasing the yarns held in the center of the traversing means thereby permitting the traverse guides to pick up the yarns to wind the packages. Apparatus suitable for use in the above process is provided.
