The Tb15B processes black walnuts, filberts, English walnuts, pistachios, and pecans using adjustable shell-cracking pressure. Compact footprint of 16×19×31 cm fits bench-scale production environments. Operators in confectionery prep, artisanal bakeries, and nut processing farms use it for kernel extraction runs.
Commercial Application
Confectionery ingredient lines require consistent kernel output without excessive shell contamination. The adjustable pressure mechanism accommodates varying shell hardness across nut varieties. Operators switch between pistachio and walnut batches without separate equipment.
During pre-production prep, cracked kernels feed directly into sorting or packaging workflows. Bench-mounted operation allows single-operator control. The unit processes smaller commercial batches where automated drum crackers exceed capacity requirements.
Key Operational Advantages
- Handles five nut varieties: black walnut, filbert, English walnut, pistachio, pecan
- Adjustable pressure settings for variable shell thickness
- Footprint of 16×19×31 cm suits counter and bench installation
- Manual feed control for batch processing
- CE certified for commercial food production environments
- Stainless contact surfaces meet hygiene standards

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which nut varieties does the Tb15B process?
A: Black walnuts, filberts, English walnuts, pistachios, and pecans. Pressure adjustment required when switching between thin-shelled and thick-shelled varieties.
Q: What is the hourly processing capacity?
A: Capacity depends on nut size and operator feed rate. Typical range is 8–15 kg per hour for walnuts under manual feed. Pistachios process faster due to smaller size.
Q: How is kernel damage controlled?
A: Adjustable pressure settings reduce over-compression. Operators calibrate per nut variety and shell thickness. Test runs establish optimal settings before batch processing.
Q: How do operators adjust for different shell hardness?
A: Pressure control dial modifies compression force. Black walnuts require higher settings than pistachios. Adjustment takes under one minute between variety changes.
Q: What cleaning is required between nut types?
A: Remove residual shell fragments with compressed air or brush. Wipe stainless contact surfaces with food-safe sanitiser. Full disassembly not required for variety changeovers.
