A peanut farm in the United States improved its shelling efficiency by installing four groundnut shelling machines, which ultimately significantly reduced labor costs, decreased peanut breakage, and simplified the harvest season’s operations.
Background of our cooperation
The southeastern United States is one of the world’s major peanut-producing regions, with the peak peanut harvest season from September to November each year.
To improve shelling efficiency and reduce labor costs, a farmer with a medium-sized peanut plantation who lives there contacted us, hoping to purchase several sets of peanut shelling equipment to increase yields and lower labor costs.
Pain points of peanut farms
This client’s farm has a large planting area, with peanuts harvested concentrated from September to November each year, requiring the processing of large quantities of peanuts within a short period.
If the shelling speed is too slow, the peanuts will have an accumulation, affecting drying and severely impacting peanut quality. Therefore, the client specifically requested that each groundnut shelling machine achieve a capacity of at least 800 kg/h.
Most flower-producing areas in the southern United States are open farms, with hulling typically taking place in fields or temporary sheds. However, these outdoor areas generally lack stable electricity. Therefore, our customers prefer diesel-powered systems.
Order details of these 4 sets of groundnut shelling machines
Finally, we selected four Model TBH-800 Peanut Sheller Machines. Below are their basic specifications and some basic parts information:
| Machine and parts | Specifications | Quatity |
Peanut sheller machine | Model: TBH-800 Power: 8hp diesel engine Capacity: 800-1000 kg/h Weight: 160 kg Size: 1330*750*1570 mm | 4 sets |
Sieves of peanut sheller | 2pcs of TBH-800 (Each machine is equipped with an additional set) | 8 sets |
Bearings of peanut sheller | / | 4 sets |
Belts of peanut sheller | / | 4 sets |
After receiving the machines, we provided installation videos, diesel engine tuning guides, sieve replacement tutorials, and belt adjustment instructions to our clients.
The machine was assembled as soon as it arrived, and the test run reached 950 kg/h, exceeding expectations.
“We plan to purchase more next season. Looking forward to a second collaboration with Taizy!” We received his good feedback after some days when he tested the machines.
