Our Cotton Ginning Process

In our automatic ginning process of cotton, a modern machine is preferable. Before cotton arrives at the spinning mill to spin into thread and woven into the fabric, it makes the journey from field to bale. Cotton needs about five months to grow from a planted seed to a ready plant.

  • The harvesting machine named cotton picker plucks fluffy seed cotton out of the planta€?s boll and leaves a trail of burrs and sticks behind.
  • The machine empties the pulled cotton into a tractor-drawn buggy.
  • The machine builds the seed cotton into a humongous rectangular block called a module.

A truck transports the module to the processing plant, which is known as a cotton gin. Once the cotton arrives at the processing plant, sticks and burrs are removed as well as any lingering debris and seeds. A truck dumps the module into a feeder, which moves the packed seed cotton into a dispenser.

The ground seed cotton falls onto a conveyor belt, which leads to the hot box, then the hotbox mixes the seed cotton with hot air, which allows the moisture to evaporate, making the seed cotton easier to clean.

Core Machine Ginning

  • machine called the Wad Buster breaks up the clumps of seed cotton by tossing it against a screen. Loose remains fall through the screen openings down a narrow chute.
  • Then the seed cotton moves through a machine called the steady flow, which divides it equally between two processing lines.
  • On each line, the seed cotton enters a Burr Machine, which grabs the seed cotton with a circular saw and swings it against metal bars.

The centrifugal force shakes off the heavier debris. The seed cotton passes the machine through one pipe and the debris through another. A large auger transfers the debris to a waste drop and out of the plant. Then the seed cotton is ready for the final step of processing.

A network of pipes feeds a row of machines called Gin Stands. The gin stand separates the seed from the fluffy stuff, called the lint. Each stand will arrange horizontally and separated by a steel rib. The saw teeth grab the seed cotton and pull the lint through the narrow gap between saw and rib. The seeds are too large to pass through, so it spins in front of the rib, then drops into a conveyor. The lint goes into a flue, which leads to the packaging area. And then use this cotton in the spinning mill to make the thread.

Modern ginning is automatic ginning where productivity is maximized. For industrial purposes, this type of ginning technology is more preferable.

Advantage of Roller Ginning of Cotton

  • Saw ginning ensures the quality of fiber is better which is better than the other process.
  • High production because of the use of advanced technology in the ginning process.

The Disadvantage of Roller Ginning of Cotton

  • The moisture of seed mixes up with fiber in processing which causes cake cotton fault.

Faults in Ginning Process of Cotton

  • Gin-cut fiber
  • Crushed seeds
  • Neps formation
  • Too much wastage
