The Complete Surgical Cotton Manufacturing Process
Producing surgical-grade cotton is not a simple task — it’s a three-stage process, each requiring specialized equipment and precision control.Amarnaathh Engineering supplies the entire integrated plant, from raw cotton cleaning to final roll cutting and packing.
Stage 1: Pre-Cotton Line (Opening & Cleaning Department)
This is where raw cotton bales enter the system and begin their transformation.
Key Machines in This Stage:
Material Feeding Machine & Condenser
Six Beater Machine
Process:
Cotton bales are opened and cleaned.
Dust, seeds, and impurities are removed.
Clean cotton fiber moves to the bleaching line.
Goal: To produce clean, soft, and impurity-free cotton ready for sterilization.
Stage 2: Bleaching Plant (Sterilization Department)
At this stage, cotton undergoes chemical and thermal treatment to achieve its pure white color and medical sterility.
Core Machines:
Bleaching Vessel (Advanced Technology)
Fibre Pressing Machine
Hydro Extractor
Wet Cotton Opener
High-Capacity Dryer
Process:
Cotton is boiled and bleached using controlled solutions.
It is then hydro-extracted and dried uniformly.
The result is soft, white, sterile cotton that meets medical-grade standards.
Goal: To achieve perfectly bleached, sterile cotton with uniform texture and high absorbency.
Stage 3: Surgical Cotton Roll Making Plant (Finishing Department)
This is where precision meets perfection. The bleached cotton is refined, carded, and converted into rolls.
Key Machines:
Automatic Chute Feeding System (Advanced Technology)
Six Beater Machine (Secondary Cleaning)
Carding, Rolling & Cutting Machine
Process:
Cotton fibers are aligned for softness and absorbency.
Rolls are formed, cut, and packed for hospital or retail use.
Goal: To create flawless, ready-to-use surgical cotton rolls.
