Abstract
The objective of this work is to construct a simple and affordable maize shelling machine that is powered by solar energy. The method adopted involves the selection of a direct current (DC) operated motor which consumes less power and is locally available. Based on the available motor, the mechanical part is fabricated to work with the motor. Chain drive power transmission method is adopted between the motor and the mechanical tool. he improvement in this work is the introduction of a sustainable and affordable powering method. Design calculation has suggested the use of a 20-watt solar panel. A battery of 18Ah capacity is used as storage. Test carried out on the maize separator machine shows that it has the ability to shell 24 kg of kernel in one hour. It has also been shown that the developed device has an efficiency of 97.56%. The total production cost of this sheller (together with the solar power system) is approximately eight thousand rupees (8000rs.).
