T echnological Advancement to the Cashew Processing Industry

CREATIONS OF

BUDDHI INDUSTRIES SRI LANKA

M – 171-1 CASHEW SHELLING MACHINE

Facts

• Best quality cashew nuts have a great

demand in the markets globally

• Clean, crisp and undamaged cashew nut is

the number one must when it comes to the quality of the cashew nuts

• About 90% of the damages happen to

cashews during one operation. That is the husk removal or shelling process

Facts

• Removing the cashew nut from the shell

(or the husk) which surrounds it is the most difficult tasks in the cashew processing industry which often demands a lot of manual labour

M- 171-1

Buddhi industries’ M- 171-1 cashew shelling machine was developed to overcome these issues

Machine overview

• Cost effective

– Affordable price – Low maintenance cost – Low operation cost

• Easy to use

– Basic , reliable engineering – Easy to maintain – Simpler operating procedure

• More efficient

– Low power consumption – Low wastage

Machine overview

• OUT PUT
• Processing Rate

(Raw Cashew)-15Kg- 25Kg/hour

• Full kernels- 95%
• Splitting & Breakages - 5%

Operating procedure

Just three simple steps

• 1. Connect the main power supply
• 2. Load the machine with well dried raw

cashew in to the feeder

• 3. T

urn the machine on

Improvements(M-171-1)

• Slider improvement –For increasing the

durability & reducing the maintenance cost.

• Improvements in the Spring box

mechanism- For minimizing the maintenance cost.

Concept Version

• Concept version has been already done to

minimize un cuts, splitting, & back-cut & increase the production rate.

• Still in the experimental Level.
