Abstract
Sliver-processing textile machines and can exchange stations include a can transport carriage to be moved in a given direction of motion for manipulating sliver cans having upper rims with outer peripheries. A can manipulating device is movable on the can transport carriage above the cans in a direction transverse to the given direction of motion for manipulating the sliver cans during an automatic can exchange. Four gripper elements for gripping the sliver cans to be manipulated are disposed at four mutually spaced-apart locations at the outer peripheries of the upper rims of the cans.
