Abstract

A method and apparatus for slipping tubes on pegs carried on a transport belt which extends along a spinning machine or twisting machine. A slipping-on apparatus for said tubes is located above the transport belt and inserts the tubes on the pegs. A sensing device monitors the seating of the tubes on the pegs and a lifting off device removes the tubes that are improperly seated on the pegs. After an improperly seated tube is removed from the peg, another tube is inserted thereon.
