Technically, the cotton gin separates the cotton fibers from the seedpods and the seeds, those fibers went to the spinning jenny, and the resulting yarn was used on the power loom/jaquard loom.
They all were invented/developed/built in the same era of the Industrial Revolution : the cotton gin in 1793, the spinning jenny in 1764, and the power loom in 1785.
They all required only unskilled labor, which led to expanded slavery on the one hand, and the expansion of wage slavery on the other.
