How Cashew Processing Machinery Works
1. Steaming / Cooking with Boiler Machine.
It starts with steaming of raw cashew nuts through a cashew boiler machine. High-pressure steam makes the hard outer shell lose its grip on the nut by making it soft. This procedure typically takes 10-20 minutes and makes shelling easier and minimizes kernel breakage.
2. Cutting and Shelling
Once the steaming process is done, nuts are fed through the cutting machine, whereby sharp blades cut through the softened shell without destroying the kernel inside. The shelling machine then efficiently separates the nut kernels and the shells.
3. Scooping / Kernel Separation
The cashew kernels that are separated out of the shells can still contain shell pieces. The automatic scooping machine applies vibration and suction to the grain to separate the kernels and shell fragments effectively leaving a pure yield.
4. Peeling
The kernels possess a thin brown outer (testa) which should be removed. The peeling of cashew nuts is achieved in cashew peeling machinery which employs compressed air, or friction to remove this skin without destroying the kernel.
5. Drying (Borma Process)
The kernels are dried in a controlled oven/ steam dryer eliminating moisture content of up to 5-8% to increase shelf life and flavor. This drying also assists in peeling off the testa in case peeling is undertaken after the process of drying.
6. Grading and Sorting
The last stage is grading and sorting the kernels according to size and quality to have a homogeneous one to pack and sell. W180, W240, W320, W450, etc. are the common grades that are well known in cashew export market. In this step, precision grading machines are used to give consistency and market standards.
Additional Features
The modern cashew processing plants are usually equipped with conveyors, automatic feeding system, and centralized control in order to improve speed, minimize labor and ensure hygiene.
