Abstract
A cap spinning machine includes a spindle which supports a spool and a cap covering the spindle and the spool. The cap is supported in a freely rotatable manner and is brought into a rotating motion by the spindle via a thread which is guided around the outer surface of the cap to the spool. Consequently, the rotational speed of the cap is automatically controlled depending on the lagging of the cap behind the rotation of the spindle. By means of a driving and/or braking device, the driving force of the cap transmitted by the spindle via the thread is additionally controllable so that the tensile force of the thread and thus the closeness of the formed winding is influenced as well.
