Abstract

For an automated removal of a package and transport adapter with a hollow core, on which at least one empty winding tube or a winding tube holding a residual length of yarn is inserted, from a yarn processing station, in particular from the protective pot of a two-for-one twisting spindle, the present invention provides for an operating method and an apparatus, so as to obtain for a troublefree further transportation of the package and transport adapter a yarn length of a defined length from the yarn end extending to a not-fully unwound winding tube, which yarn length is inserted into the hollow shaft of the package or transport adapter.
