How Does a Sweet Corn Thresher Machine Work?
Without Conveyor (Manual Feeding)
- Feeding: The operator places each corn cob into the feed inlet manually, with the head facing forward into the shelling chamber.
- Shelling Process: High-strength blades rotate at high speed, closely cutting along the surface of the corn cob to remove kernels neatly. The cutting depth can be adjusted to suit different corn varieties and maturity levels.
- Separation and Collection: A combination of a vibrating screen and blower separates the kernels from the cobs and debris. The kernels fall intact from the discharge outlet.
- Control System: Equipped with variable frequency speed control, allowing adjustment of blade speed and shelling depth. In case of clogging, the machine can run in reverse to clear materials safely and reliably.
With Conveyor (Automatic Feeding)
- Feeding: The stainless-steel chain conveyor automatically delivers corn cobs into the shelling chamber at an average speed of about 15 m/min. It can feed around 75 corn cobs per minute, with a single-machine output of 300–350 kg/h.
- Feeding and Clamping: Rubber rollers automatically clamp and guide the corn cobs into the blade area. The soft, flexible rubber material prevents the corn from being crushed or leaking juice.
- Shelling and Separation: Five high-strength blades rotate counterclockwise at high speed to evenly cut off the kernels with smooth and flat cuts. The shelling depth is adjustable. Inside the machine, a vibrating screen and blower automatically separate the kernels from the cobs.
- Cob Discharge: The discharge wheels work together with the toothed disc cutter to discharge the corn cobs steadily and prevent clogging.
- Electrical Control: A frequency control system allows adjustment of speed and shelling depth, ensuring high-speed, efficient, and low-damage operation.
Applicable Industries
You can use the sweet corn shelling machine in food & beverage factories, hotels, farms, restaurants, home use, food shops, and others. This is because sweet corn can be made into foods such as canned sweet corn, frozen sweet corn, and sweet corn health drinks.
How to Find a High-Quality Sweet Corn Thresher Machine?
Capacity
Determine the amount of corn you need to process regularly and choose a machine with a corresponding capacity. Consider both current and future needs to avoid outgrowing the machine too quickly.
Power Source
Sheller for sweet corn is available in various power options, including electric, diesel, and tractor-driven models. Choose the one that aligns with your available resources and operational requirements.
Size and Portability
Depending on your available space and mobility needs, select a machine that fits your specific requirements. Consider whether you need a stationary or mobile unit for your corn processing operation.
Easy Maintenance
Opt for a machine that is designed for easy cleaning and maintenance. This will save you time and effort in the long run, ensuring smooth operation and longevity.
Durable Construction
Choose a thresher machine made of high-quality materials that can withstand the rigors of continuous use. Robust construction ensures reliability and longevity, minimizing downtime.
Maintenance and Precautions
After each operation, clean the cutter disc and the feeding/discharging parts to prevent corn residue buildup that could affect cutting performance.
Usage Recommendations:
- Keep the corn ears whole; do not cut off the top.
- The corn length should be no less than 8 cm.
Cutting Depth Adjustment:
- A stainless-steel adjustment ring on the cutter head controls the cutting depth.
- Loosen the five screws: turn the ring clockwise for shallower cutting, counterclockwise for deeper cutting.
- After adjusting the ring, set the inverter frequency—start from 40 Hz, then gradually increase until the cutting is smooth and depth is proper (normally not exceeding 60 Hz).
Blade Replacement:
- All five blades must be replaced at the same time; mixing old and new blades is prohibited.
- After tightening the blade screws, manually move each blade to ensure it swings freely.
- If corn residue blocks blade movement, clean the cutter head promptly.
Maintenance Tips for Fresh Sweet Corn Sheller
To ensure the smooth operation and longevity of your fresh sweet corn sheller, follow these maintenance tips:
- Regular cleaning. Clean the machine thoroughly after each use to remove any residue or debris. Pay special attention to the blades, vibrating screen, and air blower to ensure they are free from clogs or build-up.
