Abstract

In a control arrangement for the motor of a winding arrangement, such as a partial warp beam in a warp knitting machine, there is provided a controller. The controller controls the rate of rotation of the motors of the turning arrangements that influence thread consumption and ware takeoff, in dependence on a main shaft signal, a feedback signal and an input size signal. The control arrangement is equipped for the storage of a program containing many input sizes which are addressable sequentially for the control arrangement, in dependence upon the main shaft signal. In particular, a data memory may be provided with a plurality of addresses for the production of differentiable input sizes. An address caller is controlled by the main shaft signal and calls out sequentially the different input sizes for the control arrangement. As a controller, a digital computer is foreseen.
