What is Gintex?

GINTEX III, a treatment and conditioning of Cotton fibers during processing, is dedicated solely to improving profits for the cotton industry. You can use GINTEX III in ginning and textile industries both.

Ginning Industry

These advancements offer the latest combination of old and new ideas allowing the Ginning Industry to push the demands on natures cotton fiber, producing more bales per shift with increased turnout, while preserving NATURE QUALITY FIBER.

Increased Turnout by reducing in the loss of good spinnable fibers from 0.8% to 1.4% equal to 3.8 (1.74 kg) to 6.72 lbs (3 kg) per every bale processed.
Increased Ginning capacity producing more pounds of cotton out the door, ending your season weeks ahead of schedule.
Reduced energy cost through Gintex’s lubricating action within the seed roll
Improvements in trash removal while preserving fiber quality

As seen in the graphs resulting from a uniform flow of cotton, Gintex Fiber Conditioner is able to increase ginning capacity by an average of 11.2% without adjusting the feeder rates; improve the % turnout by an average of 0.60 percent, while increasing trash removal for improved cotton grades.

This goes against normal ginning trends which show an 11.2% increase in ginning capacity would reduce % turnout and lower cotton grades! (USDA’s “Ginning for Maximum Grades”). Extensive trial testing supported by over half of the U.S. ginning industry committed to this new technology verify.

Greater turnout
Greater capacity
Superior cotton grades
Improved fiber quality in every run

Considering the mechanics of this technology relying on reduced fiber to machinery friction, these claims are not surprising. For example, reduced friction eliminates the build-up of positive ions on a cotton fiber to the negative ions of foreign matter otherwise known as static electricity.

A static free processing environment improves the separation of foreign matter from fiber increasing % turnout, improving cotton grades, and encouraging a uniform flow of cotton to improve ginning capacity.

Cotton treated with Gintex’M Fiber (conditioner flows smoothly through the cleaning and ginning machinery, with lower energy costs and less chokes. This, in turn, increases processing efficiencies resulting in higher bottom-line profits.

By creating a friction-free processing through this mechanical process eliminating damage. Test results show while increasing environment, ginning cotton fibers flow uniformly wading and bunching associated with fiber capacity by 13.1% via a uniform flow of cotton, treated fibers maintained their original fiber characteristics while increasing the trash removal as noted by a higher Rd value (brightness).

When comparing the % of short fibers (loss than

112th), and non treated cotton again showed a

remarkable improvement. This is especially apps*wW when processing immature fiber. For the first time GintexTM Fiber Conditioner provides the ginning industry with the option of reducing drying temperatures without a loss of production. In turn, lower dryer temperatures help preserve fiber quality.

If ginning capacity is your goal, decision would be to bring your ginning competitiveness. Just think of the time and end-user you’ll machinery satisfaction is your mission, then a timely up to speed to meet world-market save with Gintex.

Gintex’s conditioning system brings your fiber up to speed by preserving the natural wax-like surface allowing fibers to be processed in a timely, cost efficient manner. Operating your equipment without GintexTM is like taking a step back in time

Improved Cleaning Without The Loss Of Fiber

With the cost of raw materials accounting for 40% to 60% of the yarn costs, it’s becoming critically important to maximize your profits through an efficient cleaning process that will remove foreign matter without the loss of valuable fiber.

Gintex Fiber Treatment System reduces fiber to machinery friction eliminating static electricity which impedes the separation between trash and foreign matter. As a result, foreign matter moves to its proper location, while good spinnable fibers continue ending up in the yarn. The standard calculation of cleaning efficiency showed a 12.1% increase in trash removal while a closer examination of the waste collected from the pre-cleaning machinery measured a higher percentage of trash, and cotton dust, while accumulating fewer good spinnable fibers.

A gentler cleaning and processing environment reduces fiber damage (short and frazzled fibers), associated with lint fly and dust deposits. Using dust collection ventilators mounted on top of cards 1 through 8, treated cotton measured an average 28.6% reduction in dust and lint fly. Further studies show collected fibers and dust deposits surrounding the top and bottom roll cylinders measured a 24% reduction by weight. Good spinnable fibers collect in the filter box were reduced by 20 .40% depending on the process.

Increased Yarn Quality and Improved Production

In today’s high speed machinery, frictional values exceed the limit set by the natural wax-like surface located within the cuticle of a fiber.

As a result, fiber damage begins to occur during the harsh ginning environment and continues throughout the pre-cleaning and spinning process.

GINTEX III Conditioning Agents preserve this wax-like surface by reducing fiber to machinery friction which causes an excessive amount of fiber breakage otherwise known as short fiber. As seen in Mill 1, test results show improved fiber preparation increased yarn quality reducing the number of ends down by 35%.

Results from Mill 2 show a uniform flow of cotton having reduced static electricity allowed the fiber to pass freely through the carding, combing, roving and spinning process reducing the number of roller laps, increasing production throughout the textile process.

Through improved cleaning and a gentler processing environment, GINTEX III decreases the number of neps throughout the cleaning, carding, combing and spinning process.

High Yarn Quality and Increased Production

At today’s high machines, the friction limits are exceeded due to the natural pungent material on the fiber surface. As a result, fiber breaks begin in a gentle ginning environment and continue at the bending stages.

GINTEX ııı retains its natural wak-like properties and reduces friction, thereby reducing fiber breakage and short fibers. As seen in Run 1, the test results confirm that Gintex improves yarn quality by reducing the yarn break amount by 35%.

With fiber conditioning chemistry; there are significant differences in the evaluation results:

25% reduction in fiber loss
25% increase in dust and waste

According to Uster analyzes

6% increase in yarn strength
13% reduction in elasticity
15% reduction in CV rate
