ABSTRACT:
A method of processing textile fiber includes the steps of removing fiber tufts from fiber bale tops by a fiber bale opening device by effecting a travel of the opening device back-and-forth above serially arranged fiber bales to execute consecutive opening passes; lowering the opening device prior to each opening pass for adapting the opening device to the height level of the fiber bale tops; introducing the fiber tufts removed by the bale opener into a fiber storage device; conveying the fiber tufts from the fiber storage device to a successive processing station; and varying the duration of the opening passes by varying the travelling speed of the opening device. The travelling speed is varied as a function of a fiber quantity requirement by a fiber processing machine forming part of a fiber processing line and being supplied by fiber, at least indirectly, by the fiber bale opening device.
