Peanut and Almond Kernel Slivering Machine
A peanut and almond kernel slivering machine that cuts kernels lengthwise into thin strips, producing the slivered almond used in bakery, confectionery, Asian cooking and premium snack mixes.
Slivering is a higher-value cut than slicing and a more demanding one, because the strip has to hold together along its length. That depends on the kernel being conditioned to the right moisture before cutting, since a kernel too dry shatters and a kernel too wet tears. The machine handles the cutting; the conditioning step before it is as important as the blade. Graded kernel gives the most consistent result. Contact us with your sliver dimension and throughput and we will specify the machine and the conditioning stage.
