SCIENTIFIC SUBSTANTIATION OF PARAMETERS OF THE PROCESS OF COTTON FIBER REMOVAL FROM SAW TEETH

Abstract

This paper scrutinizes the process of extracting or separating fi ber from seed, which is viewed as one of the milestones in cotton-ginning plants, reviews a series of implemented experiments, presents results, and off ers solutions. Increasing demand for cotton produce across the globe leads to large-scale research work to improve the technique and technology of primary cotton processing and to establish their scientifi c basis in major cotton-growing economies. In this regard, it is becoming important, among other things, to develop mathematical models of processes, boost the productivity of cotton processing machines by means of optimization methods, create effi cient working bodies, preserve natural quality indicators of the cotton fi ber obtained through improved operational characteristics of machines, and reduce production costs. At the same time, the issues of the development of resource-effi cient designs of working bodies that won’t negatively aff ect the quality of products and the justifi cation of the parameters of the sewing machine seem relevant for all cotton-growing economies.
