Shape Optimization of Concave Crossbars to Increase Threshing Performance of Moist Corn Ears

Shape Optimization of Concave Crossbars to Increase Threshing Performance of Moist Corn Ears

Harvesting of high-moisture corn ears poses a challenge due to the high level of grain damage. In the present study, a series of concaves adapted to moist corn ears threshing was developed and evaluated. The key improvements include a concave arc shape and oblique crossbars to reduce corn grain dama...
