The Slover Power Roll Turner
The Slover Power Roll Turner Gin Stand unlocks the gin stand and the amount of HP you put on
the saw shaft is the limiting factor of its capacity.
With a Slover Power Roll Turner Gin Stand you can lose half of the saw teeth off of every saw in
the gin stand and it will still gin about the same amount of cotton.
The roll turner helps to drive the seed roll straight around which keeps the white streaks in the seed
roll lined up directly over the gin saws. This puts the saw HP directly into the seed roll for added
traction and higher capacity.
We put a new roll box front in the gin stand with a slot all the way across the gin stand. This slot
skims ginned seed out of the seed roll so all of the seed do not have to discharge out the bottom
of the seed roll. This gives the gin stand higher capacity.
When a standard gin stand begins to lose cotton on one end or the other the seed roll locks down
and the ginner has to pull the gin stand out of the ginning position and dig around in the seed roll
to loosen it up and the start it to ginning again. So you lose capacity.
With the seed skimmer the gin stand just keeps on ginning when there is no cotton on one end and
the seed roll does not lock down and stop ginning. So there is no capacity loss.
We also put a rotating huller rib in the gin stand which is located in the front of the gin stand
above the picker roller. The rotating huller rib has a series of disks on it. The disks stick in between
each gin saw and the cotton the gin saw pick up in the front of the gin saw is pulled by the saw
between each disk.
This action assures that the cotton is directly over each gin saw when it gets into the seed roll and
that the cotton does not overlap between the saws because the disk separate the cotton and this
insures that the seed discharge between each gin saw is not covered up by the incoming cotton.
Keeping the seed discharge path open so that the seed do not have to fight their way through the
incoming cotton allows the seed to discharge easily increases the capacity of the gin stand.
We furnish a new picker roller that we call a smooth picker roller. The surface of this picker roller
does not have spikes or other protrusions as your picker roller does. With out smooth picker roller
very few seed locks of cotton get by and into your seed, which makes your seed pile look white
because your gin stand did not gin the cotton off of these seed.
We furnish a new roll box top that has a single latch for ease of opening.
Some gin stands the doffing brush does not properly doff the gin saw which reduces the gin stand
capacity. We furnish new scrolls to make the brush doff the gin saw properly and also vacuum out
the gin stand as it should.
We also have steel doffing cylinders to replace your hair brush doffer. A rib fire or overhead fire
does not burn the flights off these doffers. The steel flighted doffer never gets out of balance. The
steel flighted doffer does not give up when ginning wet cotton as your hair brush doffers do.
Some gin stand do not have a very good breast lift. We furnish a new breast lift when needed that
has a 2 3/16" shaft across the gin stand with arms that attach to each end of the gin breast. This
always keeps the gin breast square with the gin saw and does not allow on end of the gin breast to
lag behind and the ribs hit the gin saw teeth which damages the gin saw on that end.
We put a 4" bore air cylinder on the gin stand to operate the 2 3/16" shaft. This insures plenty of
power to move the gin breast in and out and 2 or 3 men do not have to run over hand help the gin
breast in or out every time as they do now.
