- Efficient drive: Runs on a 2 HP motor; ~2 units/hour consumption.
- Compact & portable: Small footprint; easy to reposition on farm.
Best Suited For
- Small to mid-sized farms, FPOs/SHGs, custom-hiring centers.
- On-farm value addition and quicker market turnaround.
Operating Tips
- Use dried or semi-dry cobs to reduce kernel damage and improve separation.
- Maintain a steady feed rate—avoid overloading the hopper.
- Clean sieves and discharge chutes periodically to sustain capacity.
- Mount on a level surface; use proper wiring, earthing and MCB protection.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Q1. Is the motor included?
- Generally supplied without a motor. It requires a 2 HP, 220 V, 50 Hz single-phase motor.
- Q2. What output can I expect?
- Approximately 1200 kg/hour in typical conditions. Throughput varies with cob moisture, grain maturity, and feed rate.
- Q3. Can I run it on domestic single-phase power?
- Yes. Ensure correct cable sizing, earthing and a suitably rated MCB by a qualified electrician.
- Q4. How do I minimize kernel breakage?
- Use sufficiently dried cobs, keep a consistent feed, avoid overloading and clean screens regularly.
- Q5. What is the actual power usage?
- About 2 units (kWh) per hour depending on load and motor efficiency.
- Q6. Can it process grains other than corn?
- It’s optimized for maize/corn peeling and threshing. Use for other grains only if compatible settings/attachments are recommended by the seller.
- Q7. What maintenance is required?
- Post-use cleaning, periodic bearing lubrication, belt tension checks and inspection of guards/fasteners.
- Q8. Is it easy to move?
- Yes. The compact frame (~17 kg without motor; ~30 kg with motor) is manageable with basic handling equipment.
Note
Performance depends on crop condition and operating practice. Verify motor specifications and installation with a qualified electrician.
