Purpose This paper presents the recent advances in finger millet processing technologies
(FMPTs). In the last decade, many researchers have worked on FMPTs; however, there is a …

The operational parameters of threshing drum play a dominant role in the design and
development of the finger millet thresher-cum-pearler. The finger millet threshing drum was …

The effect of operational parameters such as feed rate (FR), drum speed (DS), and concave
clearance (CC) was studied on the performance of a pearling drum. The pearling drum …

Purpose Traditionally, the threshing, pearling, and cleaning operation of finger millet (FM) is
performed manually. It is characterized as low output, time-consuming, laborious, and …

The conditions for degree of pearling of finger millets were optimised based on its quality
attributes. Empirical models were developed to predict quality parameters for different sets of …

Finger millet pearling process involves so many drudgery prone operations that specify the
need for the development of finger millet pearling drum. The performance of pearling drum …

Aims: To study about the design parameters and optimizations of the performance
parameters for the finger millet thresher development. Study Design: Development of …

Efficient post-harvest handling practices are important in grain processing, since improper
handling of the harvested crops may lead to losses. Post-harvest handling of crops includes …

A study was undertaken for the design and development of a power tiller operated singlerow
potato planter with bucket elevator type metering mechanism. The potato planter consisted …
