The invention relates to a yarn feed apparatus for a workstation of a cabling machine for feeding a creel yarn from a feed package arranged on a bobbin creel or from a transport conveyor arranged above the cabling machine to a cabling apparatus equipped with a cabling spindle and/or for feeding a starter yarn from the cabling spindle to the creel yarn, a workstation of a cabling machine for producing a cabling twist and a method for feeding a creel yarn using a yarn feed apparatus of this type.

The invention relates to a yarn feed apparatus for a workstation of a cabling machine for feeding a creel yarn from a feed package arranged on a bobbin creel or from a transport conveyor arranged above the cabling machine to a cabling apparatus equipped with a cabling spindle and/or for feeding a starter yarn from the cabling spindle to the creel yarn, a workstation of a cabling machine for producing a cabling twist and a method for feeding a creel yarn using a yarn feed apparatus of this type.

A method for starting a spindle of a cabling or two-for-one twisting machine, wherein a yarn reserve is formed on a take-up package, the machine has a workstation having a spindle pot for holding a first feed package and having a spindle rotor with a lateral outlet below the spindle pot, an outer yarn from one feed package is wound around an inner yarn from another feed package and the outer yarn is guided through the spindle shaft and its lateral outlet in a balloon orbiting the spindle pot to a yarn-guiding device above the spindle which merges the two yarn supplies, and a winding device in which the produced twist is wound onto the take-up package. A ratio of the take-up speed of the twist to the rotation speed of the spindle rotor is increased in comparison with the production data is used during creation of the yarn reserve.

A method for operating a spindle (2) of a two-for-one twisting or cabling machine, in which an outer yarn (5) is drawn off a first feed package (7) and the spindle (2) rotates in a yarn balloon (B), wherein the spindle (2) comprises a device (6) for influencing the balloon yarn tension of an outer yarn (5), which is connected to a control circuit (18), and has a spindle pot (19) for receiving a second feed package (15), a yarn deflection device (20), a balancing system (9) for forming a twisting or cabling point as well as a spooling and winding device (12). The drive of the yarn balloon (B) is performed via a fixed throw-off point (21) on the yarn deflection device (20).
