Raw Cashew Nut Grading Machine

To ensure top-quality output, the cashews begin at our automatic grading machine. Its innovative design combines a perfectly calibrated screen angle with a matched vibration frequency. This allows the nuts to flow and roll smoothly without lodging, leading to precise size separation. Preparing the nuts this way is critical for maximizing the whole-kernel rate in the shelling process.

We can also customize the machine for the specific number of grades you require.

The graded cashews then enter our stainless-steel cashew cooking steamer, where a 30-minute steam cycle softens their shells for perfect shelling. This essential process protects the valuable kernel from damage. Our machines are highly adaptable, offering natural gas, steam, or electric heating options, and come in multiple sizes (12, 24, or 36-tray models) to scale with your business needs.

Cashew Nut Shelling and Cracking Machine

After steaming and natural air-drying, proceed with shelling the cashews. There are three types of cashew shellers: automatic cashew sheller machines, semi-automatic crackers, and manual shellers.

The heart of the cashew nut processing machines, ourautomatic cashew shelling machine is engineered for high-speed, efficient production. It achieves an exceptional shelling rate of over 95%, ensuring maximum yield from your raw materials.

While operating at high capacity, the mechanism is designed to be gentle, delivering a whole kernel rate of approximately 85%. To perfectly match your business scale, we offer models with 2, 4, 6, or 8 shelling blades, providing a customizable solution for your throughput needs. You can use the automatic cashew shelling machine in a large-scale cashew processing line.

A semi-automatic cashew cracking machine could shell 6 cashew nuts at one time. Workers must put cashew nuts into the holes and step pedals to crack shells.

The machine should be operated with caution. It is more suitable for use with semi-automatic cashew nut processing machines.

Cashew Shell Kernel Separator

After shelling, the cashew mixture is fed into this motor-driven cashew shell separating machine, where multi-deck meshes separate kernels, shells, and fines by size. Made of food-grade stainless steel, it runs stably and is easy to clean. The screen length and mesh configuration can be customized according to capacity requirements, and it is suitable for cashews as well as other nuts such as almonds and peanuts. This unit ensures cleaner material for the drying and peeling stage while reducing kernel breakage and improving line efficiency.

Cashew Drying Machine

This cashew dryer machine is used to dry cashew kernels, so it is easier to blow off the skins in the following peeling machine. This drying machine is a tray dryer.

The size could be made to match the customer’s output. It could use electricity and gas as heating sources. And the machine could also dry other nuts and food.

Cashew Peeling Machine

Unlock superior efficiency with our pneumatic peeling machine, processing up to 200kg/h of cashews, garlic, and more. Its advanced air-vortex technology ensures a 95%+ peeling rate while keeping kernels perfectly intact. Built from durable, food-grade stainless steel, this versatile machine is fully customizable to meet your specific output needs and maximize your production line’s profitability.

Cashew Kernel Classifying Machine

Maximize your product value with our precision cashew kernel size sorter. This unit automatically and efficiently sorts kernels into 3-5 distinct sizes, ensuring consistent product specifications for higher market appeal. Constructed entirely from food-grade stainless steel, it operates smoothly with a gentle mechanism that preserves kernel integrity. This grader is the ideal solution for standardizing your output and boosting profitability.

Cashew Roasting Machine (Optional)

This cashew roaster machine is mainly used to roast cashew nuts, chestnuts, walnuts, peanuts, almonds, swallowing beans, coffee beans, melon seeds, and other granular materials.

According to customer requirements, we can design to use gas, diesel, and electricity as heating sources. When the machine is working, the rotating drum structure allows the cashews to be heated more evenly.
