This groundnut/peanut crusher machine (without a motor) is a manually or externally powered device designed to crush groundnuts (peanuts) into smaller pieces or a coarse powder. It typically consists of a hopper for feeding the peanuts, a crushing mechanism, and an outlet for the crushed material. The absence of a motor makes it a more affordable, lightweight, and versatile option, as it can be operated with a user-supplied motor, a PTO shaft, or even manually in some models.

Features

• Durable Construction: Built with robust materials like cast iron or high-grade steel to withstand the force of crushing and ensure a long lifespan.

• Adjustable Crushing Size: Many models feature an adjustable mechanism to control the fineness of the crushed peanuts, from coarse pieces to a fine powder.

• High-Efficiency Output: Despite the lack of an integrated motor, the machine's design maximizes crushing efficiency, processing a significant volume of peanuts per hour.

• Compact and Portable: Its smaller size and lighter weight (due to the absence of a motor) make it easy to move, transport, and store.

• Simple and Safe Operation: Designed with safety in mind, featuring simple controls and a covered crushing chamber to prevent accidents.

Applications

• Peanut Butter Production: Crushes roasted peanuts into a coarse paste, which can be further processed into peanut butter.

• Oil Extraction: Breaks down peanuts to a suitable size for efficient oil extraction using a pressing machine.

• Confectionery and Baking: Provides crushed peanuts for use in cookies, cakes, chocolates, and various other baked goods and sweets.

• Animal Feed: Crushes peanuts to a desired size for mixing with other ingredients to create nutritious animal and bird feed.

• Snacks and Garnishes: Creates a uniform size of crushed peanuts for use in salads, stir-fries, and as a topping for various dishes.

• Domestic and Small-Scale Industries: Ideal for home use, small-scale food processing units, and cottage industries.

Usage

• Set Up and Stabilize: Place the machine on a stable, level surface and secure it properly to prevent movement during operation.

• Attach Power Source: Connect a compatible electric motor, diesel engine, or manual crank to the machine's drive shaft.

• Feed Peanuts: Pour a measured quantity of groundnuts into the hopper. Ensure the peanuts are clean and free of stones or other debris.

• Adjust Crushing Fineness: If applicable, use the adjustment knob or lever to set the desired size of the crushed peanuts.

• Start Operation: Turn on the power source or begin cranking the handle to start the crushing mechanism.

• Collect Crushed Output: Place a container under the outlet chute to collect the crushed peanuts as they are discharged.
