The technical name for a mechanical cotton picker is a cotton harvester. Instead of having humans manually pick cotton, the harvester machine does it.
The basic principal of the cotton picker has remained unchanged from the days it was pulled by horses. The picker has a drum mounted vertically that has rows of spindles. The spindles have gear teeth on the base and are pointed with tiny teeth. The drum rotates the Spindles around from front to back, while the spindles are rotated on their axis. The Spindles have small teeth that grab the cotton as they rotate to the front of the drum. When the drum rotates to the aft position, the Spindles are rotated in opposite direction and the cotton is brushed off of them, falling into a bin.
The mechanical loom and cotton gin are both pivotal inventions in the textile industry that revolutionized fabric production. The cotton gin, invented by Eli Whitney in 1793, efficiently separated cotton fibers from seeds, vastly increasing cotton supply. In contrast, the mechanical loom, which automates the weaving process, allows for faster and more efficient creation of textiles. Together, these inventions significantly enhanced the productivity and scalability of textile manufacturing during the Industrial Revolution.

eli invented the cotton gin in 1793. wire hooks and brushes were the key features.
what was the most important mechanical invention of all time.? Well..... I think that the most important mechanical invention of all time is a Play Station 3. You can play so many games world wide.
It picks cotton and it is a machine that runs by itself without having to pick the cotton with your hands.

The invention of the mechanical cotton picker revolutionized the cotton industry by significantly increasing harvesting efficiency and reducing labor costs. Prior to its introduction, cotton harvesting was labor-intensive and time-consuming, often requiring large numbers of workers. The mechanical picker allowed farmers to harvest cotton more quickly and at a lower cost, leading to increased production and profitability. This innovation helped solidify cotton's status as a vital crop in the U.S. economy, particularly in the South.
John D. Rust invented the cotton picker. He invented the cotton picker in 1933. The cotton picker is very efficient as it allows for cotton to be picked faster.

The mechanical picker enabled farmers to harvest cotton more quickly and with less reliance on labor, reducing costs and increasing yields. This innovation helped sustain cotton's status as a critical crop in the U.S. economy, making it more competitive and manageable to produce on a larger scale.
The weight of the John Deere 7760 cotton picker is 69660 lb/pounds.
A cotton cutter or picker
you will need a plow, cotton tiller and a cotton picker. I use an athens plow, agco cotton tiller and a case ih module express 625 picker.
Cotton gins. Actually, it is called a cotton picker

No, it does not. However, there are now three downloadable content packs, and although there doesn't seem to be a cotton picker yet, don't rule one out for the future!
