Cashew Nut Shelling and Cutting Technology
Freqently Asked Questions
Automatic Cashew Shelling Machines - An Innovative Product
We are a world leader in cashew processing machinery including cashew kernel peeling and a turnkey project solutions provider in Vietnam, Africa, and overseas countries, with the latest technology upgrading processing machinery. Our manufacturing unit offers an automatic cashew shelling cutting machine.
How are cashews shelled commercially?
It is a modern device with contemporary features that can cut various types of cashew shells ranging from whole cashew pieces to split shells to small particles. It is high-speed automatic technology to make the entire process quick and accurate. Cashew cutting machines are designed to automate the process of cutting and sorting cashews.
Firstly, you need to know that there are two types of Kaju shelling machine. First, the manual shelling machine ( cashew nut shelling by hand ) is the cheapest amongst all other kinds of shelling machines available. Secondly, an automatic cashew nut shelling machine is a popular type of Machine used to cut large quantities of raw cashew nuts in a very short time. Even though automatic cashew cutting machines cost a lot more than manual cutting, a massive increase in production justifies the costs associated with it. Vietnam produces amongst the most hi-tech and advanced cutting machines in the world. Vietnam has been the number processor and exporter of cashew nuts for over a decade now, easily surpassing their rival India.
The design principles of a Cajou shelling machine should be:
– Efficient: The Shelling Machine should work as efficiently as possible and should not require any human intervention other than loading and unloading.
– Safe: The Shelling Machine should cut the cashew into two halves without damaging it and without any sharp edges that could injure a person or animal.
– Durable: The parts of the Machine should be made from materials that do not corrode over time, such as stainless steel.
– Accurate: The Machine’s blades must be aligned so that they will produce squares with straight edges so that can be sorted easily.
Difference between Vietnam Design and India Design for the Kaju Cutting Machine.
Even though both designs, in the end, cut Raw Cashew Nuts, there is a fundamental difference between both. We will try to compare both now:
– Indian Cutters are vertical cutters that operate like a piston. With every downward stroke, the nuts are cut, and then the piston needs to be pulled back for the second stroke. The capacity of Each cutting Head is limited to 20 Kg per hour, so manufacturers tried to an increase number of Heads to 4 to enhance the capacity, but maximum capacity achieved is only 50 Kg per hour. So to build a factory of decent capacity, we would need a large number of cutters, which will take up space, needs multiple maintenance personals and also have very high power consumption. o Advantages
- Easy to manufacture.
- Not much technology
- Less number of Parts
- Piston motion requires a lot of work and the machines undergo wear and tear easily.
- Power consumption is high for the capacity delivered.
- Oil from the shells drips gradually following the piston movement and severely affects the accuracy and efficiency of the machines.
- For a Single Piston, capacity is limited to Only 20 Kgs per Hour for a Power rating of 1 HP.
- Outdated technology
– The Vietnamese cashew shelling machine mechanism is based on Cylindrical/Rotary motion for the cutters and then run via link chains. These are high-speed machines delivering capacities consistently. Today, 10 Head Cashew Cutting machine is the most popular, and it is helping medium size to big size processors achieve efficiency and increase their profits.
o Advantages
- Stable motion for the Machine.
- Machine is balanced with consistent performance.
- Very High Production Capacity up to 300 Kg/Hr
- Very less power consumption – 1 Hp
- Oil carryover to nuts limited
- Latest technology, which is being enhanced regularly
- Speed control of the Machine possible via inverter
- 1 Cutter can do work of almost 8-10 Indian Cutters.
o Disadvantages
- High number of parts
- These cutters work best for the specific size of the RCN it is designed for. It cannot do all sizes of nuts with the same Machine.
Scooping and de-shelling line
Most of the Cashew Industry in Vietnam uses complete automatic Cashew Cutting and De-Shelling Lines, unlike India, where the industry is mostly small. In Vietnam, rarely do you find stand-alone cutters used by the cashew processing plants. They are always integrated with vibration sieves for scooping and de-shelling. This helps to reduce labor substantially and increase productivity of cashew nut processing.
Cashew processor can choose vibration sieves as per his need and budget. We offer single sieve to triple sieve. More vibration sieves help to separate shells and kernels efficiently. The entire process is automatic with the help of bucket conveyors, air blowers, and roller sorters.
All the machine parts which come in contact with the kernel are made of food-grade SS 304. Automatic shelling lines are integrated with a multiple numbers of cutters. General practice is to use four numbers of cutters in each shelling line. The overall capacity of these shelling lines is around 1,000 Kgs to 1,200 Kgs per hour.

Cashew nut shelling machine price
We talked about the Cashew cutting machine technology and its popularity. As you all know, the price of any product will always depend on the features it offers and the reason behind manufacturing it.
Cashew nut shelling machine price in India is very low, around $ 1,500 for each cutter. Still, the capacity they offer is very low, power consumption is high, and major maintenance is required.
Very few manufacturers can offer fully automatic shelling lines, which give a capacity of 1 Ton and above for a single set. The price for the Cashew Cutter starts from $ 4,000 and goes all the way up to $ 40,000 for full automatic lines.
When it’s observed that cashew cutter blades can no longer be sharpened, you should change them. Please follow this video link to understand the cashew cutter blade removal and cleaning process.

Cashew nut shelling machine price in india
Cashew nut shelling machine price in india varies greatly starting from Rs. 1 Lac and goes all the way up-to Rs. 30 Lacs. Low cheap cutters which give a capacity of 20 Kgs per hour are used by many small processors. But these are very low capacity and unreliable. Many places these are getting phased out and replaced with high capacity cutters from Vietnam.
Cashew nut shelling by hand
Many parts of the third world still uses cashew nut shelling by hand. These are cheap and easy to operate. Requires low maintenance, but production is restricted to maximum 30-40 Kgs per Day for a skilled worker. In big factories too, odd size nuts are still cut with hands. Also, those nuts which are uncut in the automatic shelling lines are also cut by hand.
Cashew shelling machine mechanism
The cashew shelling machine is a machine that is used to process the raw cashew nut. Our Cashew shelling machine mechanism includes feeding the raw cashew nuts from the top of the sheller and these nuts get automatically shelled.
Once feed, the nuts occupy position in the groove and a rotating brush ensures, each groove carries only 1 nut. From here using a guide plates run on gear, these nuts are fed to a cutters, bottom one is fixed and top one can be adjusted a little.
Cashew nut processing machine fully automatic price
There is a misconception that entire cashew nut processing can be 100% automated. Individual processing machines are automatic, but the movement of product between the machines can only be partly automated. Process from RCN Size Sorting till Cutting can be automated with minimum human intervention. Drying and humidification are batch processes and process break here.
