The designed machine was tested at three levels of cylindrical sieve angle (4, 7 and 10 degrees) and three levels of flat sieve speed (0.62, 0.88 and 1.08 m/sec).The maximum values of machine productivity and cleaning efficiency (680.14 kg/h and 99.85 %) and the minimum value of specific consumed energy (5.88 kW.h/ton) were achieved at cylindrical sieve slope angle of 7 degrees and flat sieve speed of 0.88 m/sec UR - http://nile.enal.sci.eg/EALE/2004/MJAE/2104/3/869.pdf ER -
