Abstract

A method and apparatus for continuously removing waste yarn during doffing of a textile yarn processing machine is disclosed, which includes a mobile carriage which is adapted to move to a position adjacent a winding station to be doffed. The carriage mounts a waste yarn take-up spool, and yarn transfer means for moving the advancing yarn from the winding station to the take-up spool. After doffing the full package, the yarn transfer means moves the advancing yarn back to the empty bobbin, and the carriage is then free to move to the next winding station. The waste yarn wound on the take-up spool may be advantageously used for quality control measurements.
