Walnut sheller is a modern walnut processing equipment that can help people quickly and effectively peel off walnut shells and extract intact walnut kernels. The machine consists of a shell hopper, a crushing device, a separation device, a screening device, and a collection device.
Manufacturer of walnut shelling production line
The walnut sheller is suitable for various scenarios that require processing walnut kernels, such as food processing plants, supermarkets, walnut specialty stores, etc. These places require fast and accurate processing of large quantities of walnuts to meet production or sales needs. In addition, using a walnut sheller and kernel extractor at home can also conveniently and quickly obtain high-quality walnut kernels, improving the health level of the family’s diet
Working principle of walnut hulling and kernel extraction machine:
The walnut shell hopper places walnuts into a crushing device and crushes the walnut shells using a rapidly rotating blade, while mixing the crushed walnut kernels and shells together. Next, the separation device uses airflow to separate the walnut kernels and shells. The walnut kernels are further screened by a screening device to obtain intact and debris free walnut kernels.
Compared to the traditional manual walnut peeling method, the walnut sheller has the following advantages: firstly, it is easy to operate, has high work efficiency, and can quickly process a large number of walnuts; Secondly, the walnut kernels peeled by the machine are intact, uniform, free of debris, and of better quality; Finally, the machine adopts a fully enclosed design, which does not produce walnut dust and is more hygienic and environmentally friendly.
The working principle of walnut hulling and kernel removal machine mainly includes the following key steps:
Crushing principle: The walnut hatching process mainly relies on mechanical pressure and vibration principles. In the equipment, walnuts are fed into the shell breaking device, and through the action of high-speed rotating blades and vibration devices, the walnut shells are quickly crushed. This process ensures thorough hatching and avoids damage to the walnut kernels.
Principle of shell stripping: The shell stripping process adopts pneumatic shell stripping technology. Walnuts are sent into a specially designed shell stripping chamber, and through the action of high-speed airflow, the walnut shell and walnut kernel are quickly separated. This process not only has a fast peeling speed, but also maximizes the preservation of the integrity and nutritional value of walnut kernels.
Principle of kernel extraction: The kernel extraction process mainly adopts mechanical extrusion and vibration screening technology. The shelled walnuts are sent into the extrusion chamber and mechanically squeezed to separate the walnut kernels from the shells. Subsequently, the walnut kernels were separated from the shells through vibration screening to obtain pure walnut kernels.
The specific working principles of walnut hulling machines of different models may vary, but the overall process is basically similar. For example, some machines may use blade rotation or blade serrated advancement for cutting. In addition, some machines may also combine rotational and impact forces, using motors to drive the shaft to rotate and impact the walnut periodically with the impact plate, causing the shell to separate.
Application scenarios and market demand: With the increasing demand for healthy foods, the market prospects for nutty foods such as walnuts are broad.
