Spinning Intelligin Processed Cotton

Jack Mace


ABSTRACT

The Uster® IntelliGin System allows real-time measurements of fiber color, trash, and moisture during ginning. It features control of dryer temperature for optimum fiber moisture, and control of seed cotton and lint bypass valves. Reported here are studies of the effect of IntelliGin processing on textile processing efficiency and product quality. It was concluded from spinning trials that IntelliGin-processed cotton had improved fiber properties, which translated into higher quality of finished sliver and improved single-end yarn strength.
