It speeded up the processing of cotton by approximately a 50/1 ratio. That's a whale of a leap forward.
It was called the cotton gin because it separated seeds from the cotton, so that is how the invention got is name.
Before the cotton gin the cotton seeds had to be hand picked out of the tight knit bolls. This took a long time and was labor intensive. Cotton can't be processed with the seeds still in the bolls. The cotton gin removes the seeds by having brush type rollers tear apart the cotton boll and the seeds fall to the bottom. The seeds are used for the next crop of cotton and the gin meant that much more cotton could be planted which led to the need for a larger population of slaves.
