A method for detecting the presence of one or more faulty and/or broken needles in a circular or rectilinear textile machine including a plurality of needles to which yarns are fed from yarn feed devices associated with that machine, each yarn being fed to the textile machine with at least one of its tension, feed speed and quantity fed characteristics being kept monitored and equal to a constant value during the production of an article or part thereof, with the provision of monitoring apparatus for monitoring the at least one characteristic capable of monitoring its value throughout the stage of feeding to the textile machine; provision is made for monitoring the tension and the feed speed of the yarn to identify a periodic variation in the same indicating the existence of at least one broken or faulty needle in the textile machine. A system for implementing this method.

A textile machine receives a plurality of yarns from respective feeders, each provided with a control unit that calculates, for each garment produced, the amount of yarn consumed (YCmeas) and compares it with a reference consumption value (YCref). If the difference exceeds a preset limit value (% max) that indicates an anomaly, then an alarm is generated. Periodically, the control unit calculates an average consumption value (YCmed) on the basis of a preset number (Nmed) of already-finished garments, and compares it with the reference consumption value (YCref). If the difference exceeds a preset threshold value (% maxmed), then the reference consumption value (Yref) is set to the average consumption value (Ymed).

Method and system for managing and controlling feeding of at least one thread to a textile machine as a function of the machine operating step in product production or thread processing, such production or processing providing for a succession of steps corresponding to obtaining product parts or treating thread. The thread fed to the machine by a feeder at constant tension and/or speed and/or controlled by a sensor which monitors sliding or inherent characteristic thereof such as tension, speed, diameter, quantity and color. The sensor and/or feeder controlled by a setting controller. The setting controller receiving synchronization signals from the machine and detectingaccording to the latterthe operating steps and thus product or production status. The operation setting programmed as a function of operating steps. The machine generates a unique synchronization signal, for each operating step, independently from step length.

A device for processing threads or yarns of textile fibers includes a supporting structure for at least one spool for feeding a thread or a yarn of textile fibers and at least one textile machine, associated with a control panel, which uses the thread or yarn unwound from the at least one feeder spool. The device also includes a supporting structure for weighing the feeder spool, which is functionally connected to a control and actuation device. The weighing device is associated with protection elements adapted to avoid excessive stresses of the weighing device during the operations for loading and/or unloading the feeder spool onto and/or from the supporting structure.
