Grain Cleaner Has No Moving Parts GRAIN CLEANERS Grain Cleaners (29C) 22-1-27 The only thing moving in this new grain cleaner is the grain.
Developed by Russian ag engineers and marketed by the British company, Alvan Blanch, the new cleaner has no moving parts yet occupies a floor area of less than half a square yard. Yet it will clean up to 1,000 bu. of grain per hour.
It consists of a 6-ft. high tower fitted in-side with a series of curved tined sieves. Grain is dumped in the top and falls by gravity over the interlocking series of sieves. The design takes advantage of the different densities of grain and chaff, depositing grain out one exit and chaff out the other. Different size sieve sections are available for different size crops.
The new cleaner will be on the market for about $8,000 later this year. (Farmer's Weekly)
