Abstract
A method of transporting yarn packages is disclosed, in which yarn packages formed by a first yarn package forming machine or machines of a pre-processing process are transported to another yarn package forming machine or machines of a post-processing in a completely automated manner. The method makes it possible to readily trace the production history of each yarn package while it is processed by the yarn package forming machine of the post-processing process. An arrangement for transporting yarn packages is also disclosed in which yarn packages are transported from a first processing region to a second processing region by first and second yarn package transporting carriers via a yarn package transferring stage. In the arrangement, a mutual positional relationship between the yarn packages loaded on the first yarn package transporting carrier or carriers is unchanged from that between the yarn packages while they were being formed in the first processing region. The yarn packages loaded on the first yarn package transporting carrier or carriers are transferred to the second yarn package transporting carrier or carriers in a predetermind sequence by means of a transferring device …
