Abstract

Different designs of separators are used for separating seeds. The principle of separator operation is based on various physical, mechanical and aerodynamic properties of seeds. Gravitational separators are promising because energy is not spent on separation process in this type of separators. A gravity-cascade separator was proposed, in which the separator sections are connected like “scissors”. The sieve length was theoretically justified, taking into account the condition for passing a small fraction of seeds into the sieve holes. The influence of sieves tilt angle and seed flow rate from hopper on the quality index of separation process was studied experimentally
