Abstract

The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of some engineering factors involved in processes of corn and wheat seed coating. The engineering factors were speed and slope of the coating pan, and speed of the spinner disk. The research study was carried out at the station of seed processing in Gemmiza agricultural research station [middle of the Nile Delta-Egypt]. The both of seeds were corn and wheat. The results revealed that, increasing the angle of coating pan and speed pan rotation leads to less needed time for coating 1 ton of corn and wheat seeds and vice versa. Then, the operating costs were reduced from 15.94 L.E/Mg to             10.53 L.E/Mg for corn and from 17.36 L.E/Mg to 12.68 L.E/Mg for wheat under θ1 and θ4, respectively and they reduced  16.92 L.E/Mg to 12.21 L.E/Mg for wheat and from 15.61 L.E/Mg to 11.31 L.E/Mg for corn under V1 andV4, respectively.
