A New Grid Bar Design for a Modified Cylinder Cleaner Sanh Le, Ph. D. U. S. Cotton Research Unit Stoneville, MS

Objective Design a seed-cotton and lint cleaner that: – is non aggressive – preserves fiber properties – yields high turnout – cleans efficiently Evaluate two seed-cotton packing methods

Test Method Test 1 –3 cleaner treatments –2 varieties –2 packing methods

Ginning sequence

45 degrees 1 in. 0.5 in. Chisel-shape grid bar Gap between bars: narrow (0.25 in.) or wide (0.375 in.)

FC CC SM, TM MCC or SLC Condenser, baler EFGS FC MCC SM, TM MCC or SLC Condenser, baler EFGS Test 1Test 2 Step 1: seed cleaning Step 2: lint cleaning NFCC NCCC WCCC NCHCC WCHCC

Cleaner treatments 1.Hybrid lint cleaner* with wide gap chisel- shape grid bars (WCHLC) 2.Hybrid lint cleaner with narrow gap chisel- shape grid bars (NCHLC) 3.Saw-type lint cleaner (SLC) *Six-cylinder cleaner + saw-type lint cleaner with one grid bar

Varieties Hairy-leaf variety (STV4892) Smooth-leaf variety (DPL555)

Packing methods By hand Suction pipe

Experiment Split plot with cleaner treatments as the main unit. 30 runs with 3 replications

Test 2: 2 steps Step 1: seed-cotton cleaning 3 Seed cotton cleaning treatments Step 2: lint cleaning 3 lint cleaning treatments (same as Test 1) varieties 2 packing methods

Conclusion Chisel-shape grid bars clean seed cotton more efficiently than flat, square grid bars Hybrid lint cleaners – Yield higher turnout (14.3 lb/bale), without compromising classer’s grade –Loss less fiber in waste (50% of SLC) –Provide similar fiber quality, except neps, seed coat neps and cleaning efficiency

Variety effects Smooth-leaf variety –Is easier to clean (low VFM) –Had higher fiber strength, reflectance, neps and short fiber content –Had lower seed coat neps, fiber length, fineness and maturity ratio

Seed-cotton packing methods No difference in trash level resulted from packing methods Hand packed method had higher mike, cleaning efficiency and visible waste in waste Packing methods did not affect fiber properties, except –Hand packed seed cotton was higher in reflectance and lower in neps
