A new type corn-thresher was developed and tested for farms in Uzbekistan. Unlike to the existent threshers, this corn-thresher peels the husks of corn-cobs and threshes the kernel. At first parameters of the peeler-bars were researched theoretically, then three types of peeler bars were installed symmetrically on the surface of rotor of the corn-thresher and compared experimentally. The corn-thresher works qualitatively and it requires least metal and energy. The weight of corn-thresher is just 350 kg, consumes power amount is 5 KW and the work performance of the thresher in the pure time is 4600 kg/hour. During the theoretical research, the results were determined that, width of the peeler-bar should be bigger or equal than 4.8 cm ( b p ≥ 4.8 cm). Also, the distance between peeler-bar and concave should be equal to 38 mm ( S c = 38). While we researched experimentally the types of peeler bars, three type of them, namely straight tooth, sloped tooth and fluted bar were tested. Their surface was compared between 36-44 mm distance of peeler-bar and concave. When the distance between sloped tooth peeler-bar and concave was 38-40 mm, we achieved to peeling well the husk of corn-cob, threshing better the kernels than other peelers, the most important was that any grain had not damaged when we analyzed results.
