[0002] In the textile industry, there are many processes involved in the processing of textiles, which makes the division of labor in this field more detailed. For example, pillows are an essential bedding item for every family's sleep, and they are used and washed very frequently. In the process of processing pillows, the production of pillow cores naturally becomes one of the key points, and the quality of its packaging is also an important factor affecting buyers' desire to purchase.

[0003] The pillow filling materials on the market are diverse, including Chinese medicinal materials such as cassia seeds, wild chrysanthemums, and silkworm excrement; grains such as buckwheat hulls, rice bran, and cotton; and materials such as rush pith, cattail fluff, and waste tea leaves. In addition, materials processed using modern technology, such as porous vacuum cotton, slow rebound sponge, and polyurethane jelly balls, are also widely used filling materials on the market.
