Bale Press Maintenance and Bale Shape Uniformity
Misshapened bales present a problem for not only gins and warehouses but also textile mills and the transportation industry. The most obvious problems include increased per bale handling charges. It is important for ginners to understand the significant safety hazards at the gin and warehouses associated with misshapened bales. The following power point presentation, created by Joe Thomas and Duncan McCook with Lummus Corporation, was created to assist ginners as they seek solutions to address the issue of misshapen bales. This presentation was given by Mr. McCook at the 2008 Ginners Conference in Nashville.
RFID Technology Presentations Available
2017 Stoneville Gin School attendees discussed how to use radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for module tracking and data management – with several ginners sharing how their operations are applying this technology.
During the school, presentations regarding current and future applications for this technology were presented by USDA’s Agriculture Research Service, Cotton Incorporated, EWR, and John Deere. These presentations, recorded through Cotton Incorporated’s Plant Management Network’s ‘Focus on Cotton’ webcast resource, now can be accessed at https://www.planthealthexchange.org/cotton/Pages/GROW-COT-07-17-108.aspx
