The nut sorting machine is used to separate shells from kernels and accurately sort them into different size grades for standardized storage, packaging, and sale. It is widely used for grading and sorting almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, and various legumes, which is suitable for the pre-processing of nuts.

Highlights of Taizy nut sorting machine

  • The nut sorting machine offers selectable vibration levels of 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, allowing for sorting into multiple size grades based on the specific requirements of the nuts.
  • We have optimized the machine’s vibration frequency and screen structure to ensure minimal cracking and surface damage when processing nuts.
  • The sieve plate aperture is adjustable from 6-10 mm, and sieve plates can be replaced to achieve optimal screening results depending on the type of nut and grading requirements.
  • Its carbon steel frame ensures durability and stable operation in continuous production environments. For higher material requirements, we also offer custom 304 stainless steel options.

Why is the nut sorting machine important for nut pre-processing?

After processing by the nut sorting machine, the materials are separated into uniform size grades (large, medium, small, or more grades), resulting in higher market value and easier pricing.

Nuts of different size grades can be transported to different machines for processing, improving raw material utilization, and reducing waste:

  • Large nuts → Direct sale or premium packaging
  • Medium-sized nuts → Slicing or roasting
  • Small nuts → Chopping, grinding, or making sauces

The graded nuts also effectively improve packaging efficiency. During packaging, the materials can flow smoothly into automatic weighing, filling, and packaging machines, reducing packaging errors and downtime.

How to choose the right grading screen for your nuts?

Choosing the right nut sorting machine configuration depends on several key factors, which can help you initially determine what kind of machine your factory needs:

Nut type and size range

  • Almonds and apricot kernels typically require 6-8 mm screens.
  • Hazelnuts and peanuts may require 8-10 mm screens.

Required output

  • Small processing plants only need to select a 1-2 layer screen model for initial screening.
  • Medium to large factories: 3 or 5 layers of screens to increase output and improve product quality.

Material selection

Carbon steel is suitable for dry environments and is cost-effective. But if you have high product requirements, we recommend stainless steel contact parts, which are suitable for food-grade and export markets.

Price considerations

Prices vary depending on the number of screen layers, and stainless steel components will significantly increase costs. Additional equipment, such as elevators, will also affect the total investment.

Taizy engineers can provide professional advice based on your actual production needs to avoid over-configuration or insufficient capacity.

FAQ of the nut sorting machine

Can I change the screen size on the same nut sorter?

Yes. The sieve plates are replaceable and can be customized according to different nut sizes.

Will the nut sieving machine damage the nuts?

No. The vibration structure is optimized to ensure a very low breakage rate.

Can the almond grader be integrated into a complete processing line?

Yes. It can be used in conjunction with elevators, nut shelling machines, nut slicing machines, and packaging machines.

Is stainless steel material mandatory for this nut sorting machine?

If strict hygiene standards or export regulations require it, it is recommended to use stainless steel for food contact parts.
