Description
Summary:The current state of local and foreign linters has been studied. It has been determined that local 5LP linters when linting cotton seeds do not meet the increased requirements of ginneries in cotton-textile clusters. The practice of operating serial 5LP linters shows that the actual performance of a 5LP linter is on average 50% of that stated in the passport. It was revealed that one of the main reasons for the decrease in the efficiency of the linter is not the perfection of the working body-turner. Due to the imperfection of the agitator design, the density of the seed roller increases, the quality of the lint and seeds deteriorates, and the productivity of the linter decreases. Studies of the Chinese-made MR-160-11C linter operated at the Djuma cotton plant in the Samarkand region showed an increase in the dust content of the air in the workshop due to the absence of a cleaning section for cleaning seeds in the feed system. At the same time, the increase in mechanical damage to seeds by 1.5-2.5% and clogging of the lint by 2.5-3.5% is higher than recommended by the regulations. Due to increased seed damage, these linters were not used to process plant seeds. An increase in the degree of clogging of the lint and an increase in the amount of lint with a short staple length in its composition sharply reduced the quality of the lint. When linting, the productivity of machines for seeds decreased by an average of 50-60%, for linting by 25-35% compared to passport data. To increase productivity and improve the quality of lint and seeds, a new design agitator for the 5LP linter was proposed.
