A capstan includes a lift motor, a flexible lifting member, and a tether assembly. The lift motor is operatively connected to a shaft. The flexible lifting member includes a first end and a second end. The first end is connected to the shaft. The flexible lifting member connects a lift assembly to the lift motor via the shaft. The tether assembly includes a switch arranged between a portion of the flexible lifting member and a portion of the capstan. The second end is connected to the tether assembly. The switch acts as a safety in case of a broken flexible lifting member and allows for an automated unloading cycle.

A device and a method for winding a roving onto bobbin tubes using a turret winding head is provided. The turret winding head has a turret base plate having a first and a second spindle that are held in the turret base plate and are provided for receiving the bobbin tubes. The turret base plate and the spindles are each provided with their own drive. The longitudinal axes of the spindles are aligned in the vertical direction.
