Dense Cotton Bales Made
By Three-Ram Compress,

Cotton bales of high density and
uniform dimensions are turned out
by new electric compress, described
and illustrated in the March Popular
Mechanics Magazine. Unlike the old
style, one-ram machine, it aprries
pressure simultaneously from five
sides. Placed on the bottom platen
of this improved press, the bulky bale
from the gin is squeezed, by two
heavy steel doors, to the desired
width. At the same time two hori-
zontal dudraulic rams compress it to
the desired length. A pull on a sec
ond control lever then elevates the
bottom ram until the proper thick
ness is reached. Uniform compress
sion, in this way, to an average size
of "a by 54 by 81 in. permits the
loading of fully 60 per cent more in
freight car or ships hold.
