MAKE EVERY PEA COUNT
The four-drum threshing system has been adapted by replacing a main beater for an auger (3). The new system ensures a faster distribution of the crop over the full length of the threshing drum, improving the sieving surface. The new design reduces damage to the product and increases capacity, depending on the crop.
The large main beater (1), equipped with nylon coated threshing blades, eliminates possible damage by rubbing the pods in small portions against the sieves of the threshing drum. The crop is distributed by the large main beater (1) and 1st de-podder (2) then on the de-podder (4) to the other side of the threshing drum against the sieves. Back to the large main beater (1), the crop is brought to the special auger (3), guaranteeing an optimum spreading of the product through the entire threshing drum.
The debris leaves the machine at the rear. The product sieved by the threshing drum is cleaned by two slanting carpets mounted under the full length of the threshing drum. The peas roll off the sloping carpets onto the 650 mm wide central conveyor belt (5) and are transported to the following cleaning phase.
