Corn is grown on small scale by farmers in developing countries like India. Corn is sold by farmers with cob. The average kernel price is approximately twice the price of cob. Hence, more income can be generated by farmers if corns are decorticated and kernels are sold by themselves in the market. But this requires a cheap, manually operated and efficient corn Sheller. Lack of corn processing machines i.e. corn Sheller, is a major problem of corn production, especially in our country India. A study designed, fabricated, and performance of a corn Sheller consisting of feed hopper with a flow rate control device, shelling unit, separating unit and power system. The performance of the machine was evaluated in terms of throughput capacity, shelling efficiency, material efficiency and mechanical damage. Regression models that could be used to express the relationship existing between the Sheller performance indices, moisture content and feed rate were establish.
