Cherokee Rock Catchers
Cherokee Rock Catchers are designed to efficiently remove heavy foreign materials such as rocks, unopened cotton bolls, and even some sticks and burrs from the seed cotton stream—without compromising system efficiency. These units play a critical role in protecting downstream equipment and optimizing the overall performance of the drying and pre-cleaning process.
Proper sizing and setup are essential to ensure effective separation while maintaining airflow and throughput. Cherokee offers multiple configurations to suit varying capacity needs and system designs.
Key Features:
-
Simple In-Line Models – Ideal for standard system requirements with minimal complexity.

High-Capacity Models – Engineered for larger volumes and tougher conditions.
-
Double Valve Air-Lock with Automatic Timer (Optional) – Provides consistent discharge of collected material with minimal air loss.

Efficient, reliable, and easy to integrate, Cherokee Rock Catchers are a key component in protecting your cotton ginning system and improving process flow.
