Hazelnut Cracking Machine

A hazelnut cracking machine developed for controlled, efficient cracking of size-graded in-shell hazelnuts.

Intended Use

The Hazelnut Cracking Machine is one of the essential machines used in hazelnut processing plants to crack the outer shells of size-graded in-shell hazelnuts efficiently.

Technical Specifications

  • Frame Construction: Manufactured from St37 square-section steel profiles and sheet metal.
  • Feeding System: A vibratory feeder ensures steady, uniform product feeding.
  • Stone Gap Adjustment: The gap between the two cracking stones can be easily adjusted with an automatic geared motor to suit hazelnut size.
  • Natural Stone Machining: The stones are specially turned on a lathe and installed with minimal imbalance to prevent impact damage to the kernels.
  • Stone Removal System: A hoist suspension system facilitates removal of the stones from the machine when their grooves need to be recut.
  • Industrial Efficiency: Designed for industrial plants, the machine delivers high throughput without compromising hazelnut kernel quality.
  • Ease of Operation: Requires minimal operator intervention and maintenance, is easy to use, and can be operated with limited training. Maintenance and Inspection: Large inspection doors with viewing windows on the sides allow safe, convenient maintenance and monitoring.
