How's this Seed Cleaner Work?

I've been looking for a seed cleaner to clean shelled popcorn. I had been trying to find an old box type with screens and cannot find anything. I found this in my searches and un-sure how this style works. Is this something that I could use or are these used for some other purpose? Thanks
 
Put the corn in the high end,it turns and the fines fall out through the screen and cleaner corn comes out the bottom.
 
So they have one size screen and that's it? No blowers? I'm just trying to clean the smalls out of my popcorn and to get the chaff out of it. Thanks
 
that's a rotary cleaner. Seed get dumped in the end the screen turns, fine stuff goes through screen(dust, most weed seed), everything else goes out the other end. It basically replaced scour kleens on combines. Doesn't do anything for heavier material(twigs, leaves, cob chunks).
 
that's it just a screen, anything smaller then mesh drops... If it don't drop to much through, you could put a office box fan on the end to blow off chaff
 
How much popcorn are you wanting to do? If a lot just go up to Bluffton, In and buy a new clipper. They are made there.
 
Find you an old Clipper cleaner with the screens. I got one a few years ago and it will clean anything.

NO, they have 2 screens,,one for screening trash and a second under that one that will remove under-sized grain or split grains..

The FAN carries away a good deal of small chaff and dust..

You do need to choose the fan speed for the grain being cleaned.

Can probably do a half Bushel/Minute once set up to operate..

It will keep you busy feeding it and sacking cleaned seed...!!!
 
I have a squirrel cage blower and electric motor off an old furnace and have been thinking about trying to make one. I know that i will need to add a speed control to the motor. Do you have anymore photos of it? Looks a lot simpler than the last one I saw.
