Abstract: During the spinning process of a spinning machine, the tension of the yarn is directly related to the quality of the yarn and the number of the thread ends. The detection of the yarn balloon tension has always been a hot research topic for experts and scholars. This paper is based on digital image processing technology to study the non-contact measurement method of yarn balloon tension on spinning machines, the image processing method and basic algorithm of yarn balloon, the implementation of image processing in MATLAB, and the solution method of yarn tension.

Keywords: yarn balloon; yarn tension; image processing; MATLAB; non-contact measurement.
