ATIRA’s cotton gin upgrades to cut power use by 40%

AHMEDABAD: The Ahmedabad Textile Industry’s Research Association (ATIRA) is in the technique of growing a brand new generation for cotton gins (machines to seperate seed from fibre), which can scale back power consumption the all the way through ginning process through 40%.

ATIRA was once given a year-long research and building mission, to make stronger the cotton ginning process through the state executive’s department of industries and mines.


“The generation currently used is more than 30 years old and needs to be upgraded. The complex machinery currently used have a number of transferring portions. We are making an effort to make stronger the process through reducing the number of transferring portions in ginning machinery. This will help scale back power consumption through around 40%,” stated R M Sankar, fundamental clinical officer, ATIRA.


Researchers at ATIRA aim at completing the mission in 10 months. This generation upgrade will help make upkeep easier and building up manufacturing, in keeping with the scientists.


“As we're trying to scale back the number of transferring portions, the consumption of spare portions may also be diminished. Therefore, upkeep prices may also come down through a vital 40%,” stated Sankar. Currently, manufacturing speed is around 70kg in line with hour, in keeping with the researchers. This will building up through an 28% to around 90kg in line with hour, ATIRA officers stated.
