Using and Adjusting Peanut Peeling Machines for Maximum Efficiency

Introduction to Peanut Peeling Machines

Peanut peelers are essential for removing the red skin from peanuts before further processing. Whether you produce peanut butter, peanut oil or roasted peanuts, an efficient dry peanut peeling machine ensures high quality output and minimizes waste. Proper use and adjustment is essential to maximize efficiency, minimize breakage and extend machine life.

How to use the Peanut Peeling Machine: A Step-by-Step Guide

1.Pre-Operation Inspection

Before starting the machine, perform a thorough inspection:

Check fasteners: Ensure all bolts and nuts are tightened.
Lubricate bearings: Apply high-quality lubricating oil to moving parts.
Test rotation: Manually rotate the machine to check for obstructions.
Stability: Place the machine on a flat, stable surface to prevent vibrations.
Electrical safety: Ground the machine properly to avoid electrical hazards.

2.start-up and initial test

Idle test: Run the machine without peanuts to detect unusual noises or vibrations.
Direction check: Confirm that the rotor is rotating in the direction indicated by the manufacturer.

3. Selecting the right screen size

Select a screen that matches the size of your peanuts to ensure efficient peeling without excessive crushing.

4. Feed peanuts correctly

Even feeding: Add peanuts at a steady rate to avoid overfeeding.
Moisture control: Peanuts should be neither too dry (increasing breakage) nor too wet (decreasing efficiency).
Avoid foreign objects: Remove stones, metal or debris to prevent machine damage.

5. Adjust the fan for optimal peeling.

If peanut shells build up, adjust the fan belt tension to increase airflow.
Use the fan adjustment lever to adjust the wind strength (low for low wind, high for high wind).

6. Handling small peanuts and re-shelling

Small or unpeeled peanuts can be reprocessed in the secondary drum.
The peanut peeler will automatically return them for efficiency.

7.Monitoring output quality

Ensure that no unpeeled peanuts escape by adjusting the fan setting.
Check that the final product is consistently peeled with minimal breakage.

8.Shutdown and cleaning

Clear residues: Remove leftover peanuts and dust.
Lubricate bearings: Clean with diesel and apply fresh grease.
Protect surfaces: Repaint any chipped enamel to prevent rust.

Key Tips for Maximizing Peanut Peeling Efficiency

✅ REGULAR MAINTENANCE – Clean and lubricate the machine after each use.
✅ Proper moisture content – Peanuts should have a moisture content of 8-10%.
✅ Correct Screen Size – Prevent over-processing and crushing.
✅ Fan Adjustment – Ensure effective shell separation.
✅ Avoid overloading – maintain a steady feed for consistent results.

Why Choose a High-Quality Dry Peanut Peeling Machine?

A well-designed dry peanut peeler offers the following benefits:

Higher peeling efficiency – Peanut skins are removed at up to 98%.
Lower breakage – maintains peanut integrity for a better quality product.
Energy efficient operation – Reduces energy consumption.
Durability – Made of rugged materials for long term use.

Proper operation and maintenance of your peanut peeling machine is critical to achieving high efficiency and long service life. By following these guidelines, you can ensure that processing runs smoothly, waste is minimized, and you get high-quality peeled peanuts for your business.
