Palm Nut Shelling Machine
A palm nut shelling machine that cracks the hard palm kernel nut and separates the kernel from the shell, serving palm kernel oil mills and kernel traders in West Africa and South East Asia.
Palm nut has one of the hardest shells in commercial processing, which rules out equipment designed for softer nuts and makes wear parts a central consideration rather than an afterthought. A centrifugal cracker throws the nut against a hardened surface, and the speed is matched to the nut size so the shell breaks while the kernel survives. Shell separation then follows by air or by density. Contact us with your nut size and daily volume and we will specify the machine and the wear part schedule.
