Three of the following raise grain damage. Which reduces it?

Opening the concave clearance

Raising cylinder speed

Closing the concave clearance

Threshing very dry grain

  • A.Threshing very dry grain
  • B.Opening the concave clearance
  • C.Raising cylinder speed
  • D.Closing the concave clearance

Answer: B

Correct answer: Opening the concave clearance

Opening the concave gives the mat more room, so it is compressed and rubbed less severely and fewer grains are cracked. It is the standard first move when damage is too high.

The other three all raise damage: a higher cylinder speed increases impact energy with the square of the speed, closing the concave works the mat harder, and very dry grain is brittle and cracks under treatment it would tolerate at a higher moisture.
