Development and evaluation of a machine for peeling and cleaning peanut seeds

This study aims to develop and evaluate of machine peeling cleaning peanut seed be using in small medium production units. All experiments were carried out at average moisture contents 7.53% (d.b.) for seed. Experiments conducted drum speeds 100, 200, 300 400 rpm, number rows 4, 8 12 air velocity 1, 2, 3 4 m/s. Results showed that the highest productivity was 80 kg/h with speed from rpm while value efficiency 99.1 % row. are also lowest broken seeds 2.55 100 4. Also, velocities m/s; values 96.15, 97.85, 98.15 99.15% respectively, obtained While 94.25, 96.55, 96.65 97.50% m/s rows.
