- Tool type: Hand-cranked corn sheller
- Operation: Manual crank rotation
- Material: Cast iron or mild steel
- Capacity: 100–150 kg/hour
- Power source: None (human-powered)
🔹 **How it works:**
1. Dried corn cobs are inserted into the chamber.
2. The user rotates the crank handle.
3. A toothed drum or plate inside scrapes kernels from the cob.

🔹 **Disadvantages:**
- Only works on dried corn
- May cause breakage if corn is not fully dry
- Not suitable for large-scale operations

- Crank motion can be tiring for long hours
🔹 **Productivity Impact:**
Compared to manual stripping by hand, this tool increases output by over 4 times. It allows consistent shelling without damaging the kernels, improving both speed and grain quality. This is especially useful in remote areas with limited access to power or automation.
