A dictionary entry from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary describing the batting-machine used in cotton processing. The machine scutches, blows, and laps cotton already loosened by the willowing machine, forming a soft, even wad for the carding machine. The text walks through the feed apron, scutchers, cage cylinders, fans, and pressure and lap rollers, and is illustrated with an engraving (Fig. 601).
