A spinning machine (1) features a multiple number of work stations (3) arranged side by side between two front-side ends (2) of the spinning machine (1) on at least one longitudinal side of the spinning machine (1), each of which features a multiple number of work elements for the production and winding of a yarn (31), whereas the work elements comprise at least one feed device (4), one spinning chamber (5), one draw-off device (6) and one winding device (7). The spinning machine (1) features drives for driving the work elements and a suction device (8) for generating negative pressure at the work stations (3). The suction device (8) includes at least one negative pressure source (9) and at least two negative pressure channels (10), which extends in the longitudinal direction of the spinning machine (1) only over one part of the work stations (3). Thereby, each work station (3) features an individual drive (11), in particular an individual electrical drive (11), for the draw-off device (6).

The invention relates to an arrangement comprising a visible seam, which is arranged in a sheet material part. The arrangement also includes a lighting apparatus, which is arranged beneath an underside of the sheet material part. The visible seam has an upper thread and a lower thread. The lower thread extends along the underside of the sheet material part in a direction (R). The upper thread has first thread portions along the upper side of the sheet material part and is guided, at stitch holes formed during the sewing process, through said stitch holes via second thread portions. By means of the lighting apparatus, emitted light passes into the second thread portions, into the stitch holes, and from there into the first thread portions. Some of the light propagates along the first thread portions, starting from an adjacent second thread portion, whereas another portion of the light exits from the first thread portion. In this way, the upper thread of the visible seam is illuminated.

A method is provided for operating a textile machine having a plurality of identical workstations wherein, during a normal operation of the workstations, yarn is produced or rewound from a supply bobbin onto a receiving bobbin at the workstations. After a stoppage at a plurality of the work stations, the method includes starting and setting the plurality of workstation into a normal operating mode. The method includes dividing the plurality of workstations into groups of workstations, and starting up the groups of workstations at different predefined times, such as predefined waiting times between consecutive groups of the work stations.
