Abstract
In an automatic textile winder, an origination indicia is associated with each spinning tube supplied to the winder, e.g., in the form of a label, marking, or the like, on or applied to each tube or to a peg-tray carrier therefor. A quality-control device is provided at each winding station to monitor a quality-related parameter of the yarn winding operation. Another device is provided at each winding station in operative association with the respective quality control device for cancelling the indicia of each spinning tube whose yarn satisfies a predetermined value for the quality-related parameter as determined by the quality-control device, but leaving uncancelled the indicia of any spinning tube whose yarn fails to satisfy such quality value. Each spinning tube discharged from the winding stations is delivered to a detection station for reading or otherwise detecting any indicia remaining thereon. In this manner, the origin of inferior or sub-quality yarn can be readily identified.
