Design, Fabrication And Performance Evaluation Of A Bambara Decorticating Machine
ABSTRACT
This work focused on the design
and fabrication of a groundnut shelling and separating machine electrically
powered by a hip motor. The machine has the capacity of shelling 400kg of
groundnut per hour. The machine was fabricated from locally sourced materials,
which makes it cheap and easily affordable and also easy and cheaper to
maintain. It is also of light weight and comprises of the hopper, crushing
chamber, separation chamber and the blower unit. During the process of testing,
it was observed that majority of the groundnut pods that came out unshelled or
partially shelled were the ones with one seed per pod and those with two small
seeds in their pods
