Abstract

A process for the level adjustment of the can plate of a sliver can is proposed which is in a filling position at the output of a textile machine to be filled with fiber sliver F. The can plate is moved before the start of the filling process by a first moving device from a lower can plate position into a higher can plate position and is moved into the lower can plate position during the filling of the sliver can. The process according to the invention is characterized in that the can plate is moved before the start or during the starting phase of the filling process by a second moving device from the higher can plate position into an upper filling position after the sliver can enters a position to accept sliver from the textile machine. Furthermore, a suitable apparatus to perform the process is presented.
