| Abstract |
This research aims to test the feasibility of using a corn sheller machine for threshing sunflower crop . The effect of some parameters such as drum speed (4.71, 7.85, 10.99 and 14.13, m/s ) ,concave clearans ratio (C1 /C2) (1.2, 1.5, 2.3, and 2.9, ) type of drum (cranke arrangement at 30 - spik teeth arrangement at 30 - and 90 ) on machine productivity (Mg /h ) energy requirements (kW.h /Mg ) were taken into consideration .
The results revealed that , it is possible to use the corn sheller machine after macking some modification on threshing drum and concave in threshing sunflower crop .Optimum operation conditions were obtained with crank cylinder angle 30 at drum speed of (14.13 m/s) cylinder concave clearance ratio (1.2) were gave the best results of threshing efficiency (94.4%) . Lowest grain damage (1.7%) , total losses (0.9%), hight productivity (0.628 Mg /h ), energy requirement (2.5 kW.h/Mg), cost L.E/Mg (16L.E/Mg) .
