Abstract
An endless structure for the continuous transport of a plurality of bobbins is disposed for operative association with one or more textile machines such as, for instance, spinning machines. Each bobbin is marked with a code according to whether the bobbin is empty or wound with sliver, as well as the type and count of the sliver wound thereabout. As the bobbin travels on the endless transport structure the code is read and the wound bobbins are directed to an appropriate textile machine for unwinding. Empty bobbins are removed from the textile machine and carried by the endless transport structure to an exit station. At the exit station, empty bobbins are loaded into a sliver winder for rewinding with sliver. Once wound, the bobbins are marked with a new code and inserted back onto the endless transport structure.
