How Cashew Processing Machinery Works
Step 1 - Raw Cashew Nut Cleaning and Grading
It starts with cleaning machines that remove dust, stones, and other impurities from raw cashew nuts. Sorters sort the nuts after cleaning into uniform size and quality grading machines to allow roasting and cutting of the nuts.
Key Machines
- Raw Cashew Grading Machine
- Vibrator Cleaner
- Rotary Drum Type Cashew Grading Machine
- Vibrator Cleaner
- Air Aspiration & Dust Collection Unit
- Control Panel with Auto Feed Regulation
Step 2 - Steam Cooking (Boiling)
The graded nuts are moved onto a steam cooker or boiler and cooked at controlled pressure and temperature. It is a process that softens the outer shell, which is easy to remove without smashing the kernel.
Key Machines
- Cashew Steam Cooker
- Boiler System
- Pressure Control System
- Steam Distribution Line
- Safety & Temperature Monitoring Panel
Step 3 - Shell Cutting / Shelling
After the cooking, the nuts are transferred to the shell cutting machine. This is a machine that precisely cuts open the shell, with each shell resulting in a minimum amount of breakage. Automatic or semi-automatic models are used depending on the capacity of production capacity.
Key Machines
- Cashew Shell Cutting Machine
- Mechanized Scooping System
- Color Sorter for Kernel Separation
- Shell Conveyor Blower Unit
Step 4 - Drying of Cashew Kernels
The kernels are yet to be dry following a shelling process. They are dried in hot air dryers or tray dryers to bring them to the desired level of moisture content. The process increases shelf life and pre-peeling of kernels.
Key Machines
- Cashew Kernel Dryer / Tray Dryer
- Hot Air Circulation Unit
- Moisture Control Sensor
- Automatic Temperature Controller
- Cooling Conveyor System
Step 5 - Peeling
The dry kernels are then put in a peeling machine that peels the thin brown shell of the cashew kernel. The nut is not damaged during the peeling process through air pressure or friction.
Key Machines
- Air Compressor Unit
- Automatic Cashew Peeling Machine
- Air Compressor System
- Vibratory Kernel Feeder
- Dust Extractor Unit
Step 6 - Grading of Kernels
The peeled cashew kernels are sorted in terms of color, size, and quality. There are automatic grading machines that make it so consistent and uniform in packaging to be exported.
Key Machines
- Cashew Kernel Grading Machine
- Vibratory Grading Conveyor
- Size Sorting Sieves
- Kernel Collector Hopper
- Control Panel for Speed Regulation
Step 7 - Checking and Packing of quality
Finally, the graded kernels are taken through grading systems that are either manually checked or use cameras to check the quality of the kernels. Sections of quality checks will then be done, followed by the vacuum-packaging or the nitrogen-flushing of the cashews to maintain the freshness.
Key Machines
- Cashew Kernel Inspection Conveyor
- Vacuum Packing Machine
- Color Sorting Machine
- Weighing & Filling Machine
- Nitrogen Flushing Unit
- Band Sealer or Carton Sealing Machine
Final Product – High Quality Cashew Kernels
With the entire cashew processing line consisting of cleaning the raw nuts to the packaging process, the process will be hygienic, efficient, and yielding. Automating major processes will enable manufacturers to have higher productivity, consistent quality, and less dependency on labor.
