Abstract
ABSTRACT THE influence of lint cleaner saw speed and tooth density on several lint quality parameters were investigated in two separate experiments. Study 1 was conducted in a full-size gin plant using three cotton varieties and two saw tooth densities. Study 2 was conducted in a small-scale gin using four cotton varieties, two saw tooth densities and four saw speeds. The two studies indicated that as lint cleaner saw speed increased, composite grade improved and nonlint content decreased. However, the amount of fibers in the lint cleaner waste increased. High Volume Instrument (HVI) measurements were essentially unaffected by lint cleaner saw speed. The two lint cleaner saw tooth densities used in these studies resulted in small but significant changes in several of the cotton quality parameters measured.
