Conical cheese and method of forming the package of a conical cheese

A method for forming the wound package of a conical cheese on rotor spinning machines, wherein a crossing angle _M in a central zone of the bobbin traverse is less than 28 and a crossing angle _R in the end zones located adjacent the ends of the wound package is increased in respect to the central zone. The cylindrical cheeses thereby produced are distinguished by long running lengths, solid structure, good density distribution and excellent unwinding properties.
