Roller Ginning Aims To Preserve Quality

Most people are aware roller ginning is generally less harsh on cotton fiber than saw ginning. In California, several gins have been ginning upland cottons with high-speed roller gins. The question now is, can roller ginning have applications in areas other than arid regions of the Southwest?

Roller ginning first came to the Mississippi Delta in 1989 when Jim Cassidy of Marks, Miss., oversaw the installation of a rotary knife roller gin operation.

"We were ginning Delta Pine 90 through the stand and had direct contracts with manufacturers and mills," says, Cassidy, president of Self Gin Co.
