Customer Purchase Overview
In 2025, a nut processing plant in the United States purchased one of our nut shelling machines. Mr. Richard Brown, who runs this company, primarily supplies nut products such as almonds, cashews, and walnuts to retail supermarkets and foodservice operators. After installing the equipment, Richard commented:
“This nut shelling machine has improved our production efficiency, achieving a high shell-kernel separation rate and significantly reducing labor requirements. Especially when processing cashew nuts, it ensures kernel integrity and reduces breakage. For us, this has been a very worthwhile investment.”
As labor costs continue to rise, many factories need an efficient and stable cashew nut shelling machine to improve production capacity and product quality.
Cashew Nut Shelling Machine Overview
A nut shelling machine is a nut shelling machine. It mechanically separates the shell from the kernel, eliminating the inefficiency, high cost, and inconsistent quality of traditional manual methods. Whether it’s almonds, cashews, walnuts, or other nuts, this machine can shell them.
Unlike conventional shelling machines, our equipment is optimized specifically for cashew nut shelling. Designed with corrosion-resistant materials and cutting tools, it ensures a safe and stable shelling process.

Working Principle of Cashew Nut Shelling Machine
Grading Feed
Nuts first enter the grading system via a conveyor, where they are sorted by size and shape to ensure uniform pressure during the shelling process.
Mechanical Shelling
Graded nuts enter the shelling unit, where knives or pressure plates cut or crack the nuts.
Shell-Kernel Separation
After the shells are cracked, the kernels are separated from the shells by a vibrating screen and pneumatic sorting system.
Product Collection
The shelled kernels are automatically collected and sent to drying, sorting, or packaging.
