Abstract Results of illumination calculations for different methods of lighting spinning frames. Comparison of illumination levels showed that for the majority of the spinning frames tested, where the yarn passes through the drawing section at an angle of 70-75° with the horizontal, the effective illumination is higher if lighting units are placed parallel to the machines instead of crosswise. This was not true, however, for the following cases: where there was only a narrow passageway between the machines, where the machines were very wide, or where the lighting units were not mounted high enough.
