How to harvest pumpkin seeds with a pumpkin seed extractor?
The pumpkin seed extractor connects to a large tractor driven by a PTO to function. As the pumpkin-hunting rollers walk through the fields, the watermelons and pumpkins are carried to the hopper and into the crushing room, saving a lot of time and effort.
After crushing impurities such as melon peel in bottles, they are discharged from the filter bottles on both sides of the seed harvester, and the pulp and sieve of the melon are separated to make relatively clean seeds.
Steps for harvesting pumpkin seeds
Feeding the pumpkins
The machine is suitable for working in agricultural fields. When working, the pumpkin is fed into the feeding hopper of the machine by hand.
Smashing pumpkins
After the pumpkin enters the feed hopper of the seed extractor machine, it will be crushed under the action of the internal crushing shaft.
The crushed pumpkins will be transported to the separation drum of the machine under the action of the crushing box slope of the machine.
Separation of melon rind, melon pulp, and melon seeds
Under the stirring action of the separating shaft, the melon skin and part of the melon flesh will be automatically discharged from the separating barrel of the pumpkin seed harvester. The seeds and juice will enter the churning box through the separating screen.
Under the action of the churning shaft, the seeds and pulp are fed into the cleaning drum of the machine. Through the rotation of the cleaning shaft, melon seeds, pumpkin juice, and a small amount of melon flesh will be further separated and cleaned. The melon seeds will be squeezed by the cleaning shaft and passed through the seed outlet of the machine.
