Design and fabrication of corn sheller machine Department:Mechanical Engineering By: samadchuks Project ID: 5695 Rating: (3.3) votes: 6 Price:₦3000 Get the Complete MaterialAbstractA machine for corn shelling is highly and greatly needed for consistency of corn usage at local and international levels. With regard to this indispensable need, this improved corn shelling machine was designed to operate by removing or shelling 6.34kg of grains per hour and allowing the cob to drop off through a designed space. The process also allows the corn chaff to be blown by a fan attached below the cylindrical drum. The fan blade was intentionally made to rotate anticlockwise to achieve the direction of blowing out the corn chaff. The machine is power-driven by 0.75kw[1hp] electric motor through the means of belt drive. The shelling is done by a thresher contained in the chamber and driven by a pulley belt arrangement. The machine was tested to achieve the 6.34kg maize per hour capacity. It has an overall dimension of 890 ×470×180mm and a shaft speed of 1450 rpm. The machine was designed to achieve up to 75% efficiency....Preview Download Preview +Other Mechanical Engineering project topics and materials you might be interested in»A project report on the design and construction of adjustable drawing table and stool»Design, construction and testing of beans threshing machine»Design and fabrication of groundnut shelling machine»Design and construction of adjustable drawing table and stool»The design and assembling of a tricycle engine (Paggio)»Design and construction of a pneumatic water pumping machine»Design and fabrication of electrical motorized bicycle wheelchair»Design of an indirect evaporative cooling system for preserving perishable farm produce»Modern washing machine, principles of operation and maintenance»Fabrication and construction of window burglar proof»Design and fabrication of domestic deep freezer»Design and construction of journal bearing demonstration rig»Construction and fabrication of charcoal oven»Fabrication of a pepper grinding machine»Fabrication of an industrial trolley
