The cashew nut shelling machine is designed to remove the shells of raw cashew nuts. There are three types of shellers available: automatic, semi-automatic, and manual crackers.
The automatic machine has multiple models. It can open 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 cashew nuts at a time, which is suitable for large-scale and small-scale cashew production.
The semi-automatic and manual types are for relatively small processing factories. The machine can be made according to the output of customers. This cashew processing machine is easy to operate and has high opening efficiency. It is the best machine for cashew nut processing and shelling.

Why use an automatic cashew nut shelling machine?
The cashew nutshell is very hard and has a special shape. It is difficult to open the cashew nutshell with ordinary tools. And cashew nuts contain a special oil, which can cause allergies if you get it on your hands.
Therefore, they usually use a special cashew cracker machine. Because many farmers do not have processing capabilities, we provide three types of cashew shellers at low prices for them.
Introduction of automatic cashew nut cracker
The automatic cashew shelling machine only requires manual feeding, it will automatically place the cashew nuts and open the shell. The automatic cashew nut sheller machine overcomes the problem of the manual cashew cracking machine. It has a device for automatically placing the cashew nuts in the round hole.
Then it is conveyed through a chain so that the cashews run on a smooth track. On this horizontal track, the cashew is flat. When running on the track, the blades on both sides of the track break the cashew nuts.
Since the cashews are placed horizontally, the shelling rate of cashews is high and the damage rate is low. And this cashew sheller has a class rate of over 90%.
Technical parameter of automatic cashew nut cracker
| Model | Capacity | Power | Size | weight |

| TZ-6 | 100kg/h | 1.1kw | 1.5*1.15*1.6m | 360kg |
| TZ-8 | 200kg/h | 1.5kw | 1.5*1.6*1.65m | 560kg |
We have a total selection of three types of automatic cashew nut shellers, and the output is 70kg / h, 100kg/h, and 200kg/h respectively. You can choose according to your needs. If you have any questions, you can contact us at any time and we will reply to you as soon as possible.
Semi-automatic cashew nut cracking machine
The semi-automatic cashew cracker machine generally has six feeding holes. The worker puts cashew nuts into holes and steps the foot pedal to operate the machine to break shells.
The cashew shell cracking machine uses a long and sharp blade that can cut cashew nuts at one time. When working, step on the pedal to start the blade, so that the cashew nuts shell can be broken.
In our company, we have two kinds of semi-automatic machines for sale, pneumatic model and mechanical model. Below are the parameters and product features of these two semi-automatic cashew shelling machines.
Technical data of semi-automatic cashew nut shelling machine
| Model | Mechanical model | Pneumatic models |
| Capacity (kg/h) | 25 | 25 |
| Size (m) | 1.1×0.6×0.6 | 1.3×0.8×1.1 |
| Shell opening rate | 95% | 95% |
| Completeness rate | 95% | 95% |
| Wight (kg) | 140 | 120 |
These are the specific parameters of two semi-automatic cashew nut shelling machines. Compared with automatic machines, these two machines have a higher shelling rate and integrity.
But the output is very low, only 25kg/h. You can choose the right machine for your needs.
Product characteristics
- High shelling rate. The shelling rate of the machine is stable above 95%.
- Affordable. Compared to fully automatic machines. Semi-automatic machines are moderately priced.
- Easy to operate。Although the machine is semi-automatic. But it is also controlled by a push button. Thus it is characterized by simplicity of use.
Manual cashew nut shelling machine
Manual cashew sheller machines generally use manual feeding, and foot operation machines to break the shells. The shell cracking device uses a blade that has the same shape as the cashew nut. When working, footsteps on the machine rotate the blade, so that the cashew nut shell can be broken.
How to use a cashew shelling machine?
Check the machine
Before starting the machine, make sure the cashew nut shelling machine is in good condition. For example, make sure there are no loose parts.
Raw material preparation
Select good quality raw cashews and remove substandard and impurities.
Adjustment of parameters
According to the size and hardness of the cashews, adjust the blade gap and speed of the shelling machine.
Pitching cashew nuts

Successful cases of the cashew nut cracker
In March 2023, a Togo customer ordered a fully automatic cashew nut shelling machine from our company. The Togo customer has a cashew plantation in Togo. Before, he had been using manual labor to shell cashew nuts.
Now he wants to buy an automatic machine to improve the shelling efficiency. After many comparisons, he chose our machine. This machine can shell 2 cashews at a time with an output of 35-45kg/h. Now the customer has received the machine.
Tips for choosing the suitable cashew nut shelling machine
- Choose a shelling machine with the right output according to your production scale. For small-scale processing plants, choosing a model with an output of 35-45kg/hour is sufficient.
- Choose a machine with a high shelling rate to minimize the breakage of cashew kernels.
- You’d better choose a machine made from high-quality materials. This kind of machine is resistant to abrasion and corrosion.
- It is necessary to choose cashew nut shelling machines that are easy to operate.
- Choose the machine with optimum performance within your budget.
