Abstract
A device for the selective braking of a running yarn including a controlled yarn brake having at least two brake elements between which the yarn runs, which brake elements can be elastically pressed against each other with an adjustable force that determines the braking effect. The device also includes a first actuator for the temporary nullification of the braking effect, a control device to which the first actuator is connected, and a device for adjusting the brake force. The adjustment device includes a second actuator, which is also connected to a control device.
