INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

Today’s slogan in the international textile or Today’s slogan in the international textile or any other market is quality, so the production any other market is quality, so the production or yield % stand at second priority, no doubt or yield % stand at second priority, no doubt high production is an even demand of world high production is an even demand of world population.population.

Contamination free textiles are the ultimate Contamination free textiles are the ultimate target of the manufacturer along with other target of the manufacturer along with other quality control applications. quality control applications.

Cotton sorter is used for foreign material Cotton sorter is used for foreign material

detection in the blow room. The contaminants detection in the blow room. The contaminants

are removed by means of very fast pneumatic are removed by means of very fast pneumatic

ejectors. Cotton sorter is useful to improve the ejectors. Cotton sorter is useful to improve the

quality of raw material and also upgrade the quality of raw material and also upgrade the

low quality cotton bales by removing low quality cotton bales by removing

contamination. contamination.

Definition of contaminantsDefinition of contaminantsContaminants in cotton can be described as a deviation in color and sizeContaminants in cotton can be described as a deviation in color and size

The line camera interprets a defect as color level deviationsThe line camera interprets a defect as color level deviations The contaminant size is defined as a combination of contaminant width and The contaminant size is defined as a combination of contaminant width and

contaminant lengthcontaminant length
