The present article investigates the critical issue of enhancing the efficiency of separating residual fibrous seeds that remain within the seed mass following the ginning process. Based on comprehensive experimental research, an analysis has been conducted regarding the influence of the operational modes of the improved RNS equipment and the structural parameters of the loosening peg-paddle drum on the overall technological process. During the course of the experiments, particular attention was paid to the impact of the screw pitch on the drum in relation to the distribution of the seed mass across the surface of the saw drum and its subsequent effect on regeneration efficiency. The findings of the research indicate that increasing the screw pitch to a specific threshold significantly improves separation efficiency; however, an excessive increase leads to a decline in process performance. According to the experimental results, it has been determined that the optimal value for the screw pitch within the loosening peg-paddle drum is approximately 150 mm.
