Model 15-D Impact Huller
Efficient Impact Hulling
The Forsberg Impact Huller provides efficient, thorough hulling of sunflower
seeds and oats for further separation of hulls and meats. Simple, accurate
control features place the operator in total control of the hulling operation.
The product is fed into the inlet where it enters the impeller wheel through
the feed control pipe. Accurate crank adjustment of the feed control determines
the thoroughness of the hulling operation. The centrifugal force of the rotating
impeller wheel drives the product against the hulling ring. Both the impeller
and hulling ring are constructed of a durable boralloy steel for wear
resistance. Proper speed of the rotating impeller is important to the hulling
operation because it establishes the exact force of impact against the hulling
ring. Fine tuning of the speed control quadrant minimizes broken meats. The
Model 15-D features a tachometer for accurate monitoring of the impeller's
speed.
From the hulling chamber, the hulled product and any dust that has
accumulated, enters the cyclone and is discharged out the bottom for further
handling and processing. The air that is used is retained in the machine and
continually recycled.
Moisture, temperature and density play an important role in hulling
efficiency. Product should be uniformly sized prior to hulling for best
results.

It is my pleasure to represent Forsberg online with their
entire line. If you have any questions or want to run tests feel free to

* The reason it
is be better to work through a representitive of a manufacturing company is
because we (over the last 25 years) have been problem solving and working with
every part of multiple process systems. Because of that we help
customers better understand what is needed and why, which in the end creates far
less problems down the road.
