Abstract: Pressure between rollers in each set thereof in a drawing frame is maintained by oil pressure in a main pipe circuit connected to piston and cylinder assemblies allocated to the sets of rollers. A motor driven pump feeds oil from a tank through a feed pipe to the main circuit except when a first solenoid-controlled valve directs the oil through a first return-flow pipe branched from the feed pipe. So long as a pressure gauge connected to the main circuit is indicating the pressure to be below a minimum, it excites the first solenoid-controlled valve to close the first return-flow pipe. When, as a result of lapping on a drafting roller the gauge indicates a maximum pressure, it causes the machine to stop. A second solenoid-controlled valve has its excitation periodically suppressed to open a passage through a second return-flow pipe to prevent the temperature of the drawing frame from overheating the main pipe circuit.
