FibreTrace is hosting our next webinar and we are pleased to share that Mike Murray from Namoi Cotton, will be guiding us through the Wathagar Cotton Gin! Join us as we dive into the world of cotton processing and unravel the integral role that FiberTrace plays in revolutionising the industry.

In this session, we will be diving into how a raw round cotton bale, is cleaned, treated, heated, applied moisture and pressed into the ginned bales that we see sitting on the gin pad. Mike has been an integral part of our FibreTrace SDU Developments and will provide insight into how this machine works.

This session was prerecorded and shared on the 26th of July 9am AEST.
