Improving the performance of the threshing process is of utmost importance in enhancing the quality of sunflower seeds and minimizing power consumption in sunflower production. In this study, we developed a modified sunflower threshing machine by incorporating two types of threshing rotors, namely the angled rasp bar rotor and the tine bar rotor, as compared to the round bar rotor. The
extracting machine or in other words sunflower threshing machines in terms of their cost and performance characteristics. 2. A qualitative study of the types of materials and components suitable for the fabrication of the threshing machine and their availability in the market. 3. Modelling of the sunflower threshing machine by using CATIA V5

An orthographic projection was drawn using SolidWorks 2016 software. The sunflower threshing machine was fabricated according to the drawing in the FMPE Divisional workshop using locally available materials in 2017-18. The developed sunflower threshing machine was modified in 2018-19.
Sunflower threshing is one of the most interesting field processes for making the sunflower ready for seed handling, drying, cleaning and oil extraction. One of the biggest problems observed during the sunflower threshing process is the accumulation of threshed crop on the first third of the threshing roller and passing off some unthreshed parts of sunflower heads. To solve the aforementioned
Design and Development of a Power Operated Sunflower Thresher
- Type: cooking oil extraction machine
- Voltage: 380 V
- Press materials: Small oil expeller
- Appearance: Horizontal
- Press series: Fourth
- Customized: Customized
The developed sunflower threshing machine was modified in 2018-19. The improved model was further modified to reduce the overall dimensions while maintaining the same capacity of the machine
To determine productivity of the machine the following relationship is used P th = Pw/ t Where P w=mass of total seeds in kg, t= time consumed in threshing sunflower 1gram=20sunflower seeds( approximately ) As, our machine threshes 10 sunflowers perminute, therefore 60* 10=600 Sunflowers per hour
Improved design and fabrication of a sunflower threshing machine.

- Power (W) : 20-50KW
- Voltage: 380V/440v
- Dimension (L*W*H): depends on capacity
- Weight: depends on capacity
The already existing sunflower threshing machines have low threshing efficiency of and are also sophisticated (UK Sunflower Association, 2003). Hence the need for designing and fabricating a sunflower threshing machine. The methods used for assembly were machining, welding, milling, drilling, cutting and gridding.
