Production Steps in Cashew Processing Line
Peeling Unit
- Peeling rate ≥ 95%; broken kernel rate < 2%.
- Color Sorting & Impurity Removal: Utilizes CCD technology to detect and remove residual seed coats, achieving a removal rate of up to 99%.
- Automatic Grading: Classifies finished kernels into six distinct grades.
Drying Unit
Two-Stage Drying Process:
- Stage 1: 65±2°C — Removes surface moisture.
- Stage 2: 50±1°C — Controls final moisture content within the 3%–5% range.
- Precise temperature control ensures that the cashews remain undamaged during the drying process, resulting in a crisp texture.
Shelling Unit
- Mechanical shelling efficiency reaches 95%, with an unshelled rate of less than 3%.
- Shell-kernel separation utilizes a combination of vibrating screens and airflow sorting, resulting in a shell content in the kernels of <0.5%.
- Automatic residue discharge design: Collected shell residue purity exceeds 95%, minimizing the need for manual intervention.
Grading Unit
- Four-Stage Size Sorting: 14/16/18/22 mm, ensuring uniform kernel size.
- Packaging specifications tailored to meet diverse market demands.
Equipment in a Cashew Production Line
Cashew Nut Elevator

Cashew nut elevators primarily function as vertical or inclined conveyors in cashew processing and packaging lines. They lift raw cashews from ground hoppers to grading machines for size sorting. During processing, they also transport washed and dried cashews to subsequent roasting or breading equipment. In the packaging stage, they lift the finished products into multi-head scales or packaging machines for sealing.
Grading Machine
It uses rollers with varying spacing to sift the material. Smaller pieces fall through the gaps or sieve holes, while larger pieces continue moving forward, achieving size separation. It also removes impurities such as fruit shells, peels, pebbles, glass, and metal.

Cashew Steaming Machine

The steaming machine uses high-pressure steam to heat the cashews, softening and brittleing the outer shell and creating tiny gaps between the kernel and the shell.
Cashew Sheller
The purpose of a cashew sheller is to remove the hard, oily shell of a cashew without damaging the kernel, thus obtaining a whole kernel.

Cashew Drying Machine

Cashew drying boxes remove excess moisture from cashew kernels by controlling temperature and humidity, achieving optimal storage conditions. After drying, the seed coat dehydrates, becomes brittle and loose, creating conditions for the next peeling process.
Kernel Screening Machine
A cashew kernel separator separates the shelled cashew kernels from the broken shells. It primarily uses airflow for separation. The lighter broken shells are blown away, while the heavier kernels fall to the bottom.

Nut Peeling Machine

It uses a roller combined with high-pressure airflow to peel off the loose, reddish-brown seed coat from the dried and softened cashew kernels.
Roller Shell and Kernel Separator
The core component of a roller separator is one or more sets of relatively rotating rollers. These rollers typically have grooves or rubber strips on their surfaces. As material passes through, the rollers apply squeezing and crushing forces. This force is just enough to crush off any adhering material fragments.

Double Chamber Vacuum Packaging Machine

The final stage of a double-chamber vacuum packaging line. It provides an oxygen-free storage environment for the finished product by removing air from the packaging bag and sealing it. The two vacuum chambers work alternately; while one is vacuuming and sealing, the other can simultaneously place the product inside.
FAQ
