Description
The Nut Cracker, also known as a Ripple Mill, is a key machine in the palm oil extraction process. It is designed to crack the shell of palm nuts and separate the kernels from the shells using a high-speed rotor system and ripple plates. This machine is optimized to minimize kernel breakage and improve the efficiency of shelling operations.
Working Principle
Dried palm nuts are fed into the machine
A high-speed rotor works in combination with ripple plates
Friction and impact forces crack the shells and separate the kernels
The cracked mixture is then transferred to the next stage for shell and kernel separation
Key Features
Efficiently cracks palm nut shells while minimizing kernel damage
Durable and robust structure for heavy-duty industrial use
Adjustable rotor speed and gap settings for optimal shelling performance
Increases the yield of whole kernels and reduces processing waste
Easy to maintain with readily available spare parts, such as Rotor Rods and Side/Center Plates
Suitable For
Palm oil mills of all sizes
Palm kernel processing operations seeking improved shelling efficiency
Material
Constructed from high-quality steel and metal alloys
Components undergo heat treatment for enhanced durability and wear resistance
Sizes & Capacity
Available in multiple models supporting capacities from 5 tons/hour and above
Custom designs available to match specific factory requirements (Made to Order)
