Gentle shelling is accomplished by the pressure provided by the rotor causing the ear corn to rub together and the smooth round ribs.
A spring-controlled retaining flap with variable pressure serves to adjust the counter pressure to the outflow. This allows the rotor to maintain an acceptable level of ear corn to assure completely uniform and gentle shelling.
• Designed for gentle separation of maize kernels from the cobs and removal of rachis.
• Application in the seed processing sector, where maize cobs are harvested as a whole unit.
• In the processing plant, the machine is positioned after husking and cob drying.
• Removes the kernels in the gentlest possible way by rubbing the cobs against each other without any risk of harming the germination capacity of the sensitive maize seed.
