Automatic Cashew Shelling Machine
Fully automatic, minimal hands
The fully automatic configuration of the TTQ shelling machine — auto-fed, multi-head cutting with minimal operator involvement for high-volume lines.

The Automatic Cashew Shelling Machine is the fully automated configuration of TTQ’s shelling / cutting system: nuts are auto-fed to multi-head cutting stations, shelled and separated with minimal manual handling. It targets high-volume plants that need consistent 1,000–1,200 kg/hr throughput with low labour. For the full range of head configurations, capacities and specifications, see the main cashew nut shelling machine page.

Where it fits in the process
The automatic shelling machine occupies the same core cutting stage — graded, steamed nuts feed in; shelled kernels move on to drying and the shell to the burner.
