An air jet spinning machine, air jet spinning machine for producing a thread from a fed sliver, and method for detecting a thread strength, which falls below a target value, of a thread produced at a spinning unit of an airjet spinning machine are provided. A thread manipulation unit is arranged in the region between the airjet spinning machine and the spooling device, which thread manipulation unit acts mechanically on the thread and exerts an adjustable thread tension influencing force, in particular an adjustable braking force, compression force and/or clamping force, onto the thread in order to variably increase thread tension. In the method, an adjustable thread tension influencing force is exerted onto the thread, and a thread breakage and/or thread breakage rate are/is detected and compared with a specified target rate, and thread breakage and/or deviations of thread breakage rate beyond a predetermined limit value are displayed and/or evaluated.

A method for laying multiple conductors in a container may be provided. The method may comprise receiving the multiple conductors at a monitoring station; receiving the multiple conductors at a drive; and receiving the multiple conductors at the container.

A device (100) for braking a conductor. The device (100) comprises a braking element (10), which is able to be put into an operative connection with a conductor guided in a conveying direction of the device (100), and a contact pressure element (20) which is able to put into an operative connection with the conductor guided in the device (100). The contact pressure element (20) is arranged opposite the braking element (10) and the elements are movable relative to one another. The contact pressure element (20) is arranged on a brake lever (30) mounted in a pivotable manner on a pivot pin (31). Furthermore, a method for braking the conductor and to a cable processing machine having the device (100) are also disclosed.

A canister-yarn tensioning assembly is adapted for controlling tension in a running yarn drawn from a yarn supply package located within an open-top canister. The canister-yarn tensioning assembly includes a cylindrical adapter configured to reside at a mouth of the open-top canister. The adapter defines an unobstructed package transfer space sufficient to allow the yarn supply package to be manually lowered through the adapter and into the canister. A pivoted support arm is carried by the adapter, and configured to pivot at a connection point located on a peripheral flange of the adapter. One or more yarn tensioners are carried by the pivoted support arm, and are movable between an operative position within the package transfer space and an inoperative package-replacement position outside of the package transfer space.

A method of spooling a crane rope (2) onto a crane drum through a crane rope spooling system (1) from a reel (31) under a predetermined back tension is described and includes the steps of: unspooling the crane rope (2) from a reel (31) and passing the crane rope through a tensioning system (10) comprising a primary back tensioner (12) and a secondary back tensioner (16); gripping the crane rope (2) within the secondary back tensioner (16) and thereby preloading the crane rope (2) with tension prior to the crane rope (2) passing through the primary back tensioner (12); and applying a predetermined back tension to the crane rope (2) with the primary back tensioner (12) as the crane rope (2) is being spooled onto the crane drum under the predetermined back tension. A crane rope spooling system (1) for spooling crane rope (2) onto a crane drum under a predetermined back tension is also described, said system (10) comprising a tensioning system (10) comprising at least a primary back tensioner (12) and a secondary back tensioner (16) and a reel (31).

Piloted electromagnetic brake for controlling the tension of the weft threads in weaving machines, in particular of a weft thread which has a high number of knots, of the type including a pair of opposite elastic thin plates between which the weft thread runs, an operated thin plate being adjusted in position by an electromagnetically controlled operating piston, and a resisting thin plate being resistant against an elastic contrast unit, in order to control the intensity of the contrast force between the pair of thin plates. The resisting thin plate and the operated thin plate have fulcrum points in correspondence of a central portion thereof, so as to be able to freely oscillate in a plane containing the weft thread, during the passage of a knot between them, and the fulcrum points are offset by a set length along the weft thread running direction.
