A mechanical cotton picker is a machine that automates cotton harvesting in a way that reduces harvest time and maximizes efficiency. There are two types of pickers in use today: spindle-type cotton pickers and stripper-type cotton pickers. The spindle picker physically pulls the cotton from the boll. And the stripper, as the name implies, slices the boll and leaves away from the plant. The strippers tend to be used more in the southern U.S. where cotton plants tend to be smaller and more compact. After harvesting, you will also need a machine known as a cotton module builder, which forms the cotton into a compressed mound ready for the cotton gin.
