Abstract
An apparatus for sliver can controlling in a spinning mill having a plurality of spinning machines each comprising a plurality of spinning stations. The apparatus includes various lines of sliver can transporting tracks through which a full sliver can may be brought to a position adjacent to any of the spinning stations, as required. Sliver consumption quantities at the respective stations are computed by a control circuit as a central processing unit. When the sliver consumption at any one of the spinning stations reaches a predetermined quantity at which its sliver can is nearly empty, the control circuit operates to energize a warning means and means for indicating the number designating such spinning station calling for sliver can replacement. Simultaneously, the control circuit operates to drive and actuate the transporting means and guide means incorporated in the transporting tracks in such a way that a route is established through which the sliver can is transferred up to a position adjacent to the spinning station at issue.
