A method is performed at a spinning machine that includes a plurality of spinning stations at which different yarn lots are spun. The method transports tubes from multiple tube magazines to the spinning stations. At the spinning station, a yarn is spun from a sliver deposited in a can and is wound onto the tube. An identical marking associated with a respective one of the different yarn lots is provided on the following components: each of the tubes, each of the tube magazines, a display device at the spinning station, a monitor at a machine control system, the cans at the spinning station, and a service unit that travels alongside of the spinning stations.

A method for controlling a display on a spinning machine or winder having a plurality of same-kind workstations and a plurality of displays includes assigning one of the displays to at least two of the workstations, wherein each display includes a display area. During normal operation of the workstations, information regarding the individual workstations assigned to the particular display is simultaneously displayed in respective subareas of the display area. When required by changed operating states at the work stations, a surface area of the subareas is changed to display information regarding at least one of the workstations on a larger subarea. An associated spinning machine or winder is also provided.

A textile machine and associated method are provided for operating the textile machine that includes a plurality of workstations, wherein each workstation includes at least one stepper motor configured to drive an element at the workstation. The method includes measuring a load variable, for example a load angle, of the stepper motor and detecting an approach of the element to an end position based on changes to the load variable.

An electronic device and associated method of operation determine information for at least partially improving operation of a spinning mill. The electronic device is configured to: receive a plurality of event messages related to operation of the spinning mill from a computer network; from the plurality of event messages, determine recurring event messages and assign one or both of frequency information and time information to the recurring event messages; and based on one or both of the frequency and time information, process one or more of the recurring event messages to determine the information for at least partially improving operation of the spinning mill.
