PecanSheller2022

This is the newest "Krak-N-Blo" Pecan Pro, LLC pecan shelling tower.
Our Made in USA Crack and Blow Tower is an all-in-one shelling machine that cracks and separates a substantial portion of pecan shells from the kernels. By combining functions this design minimizes floor space, weight, and cost to own and operate. No other machine on the market is known to match our features or performance. Except for the blower and gearmotor there is only one moving part. Our exclusive cracker mechanism and self-lubricating bearing components are molded with specially formulated structural materials. The latest tower has been upgraded to rugged 16-gauge steel. A filter bag is no longer needed as shells are now discharged into a trash container of suitable size when placed behind the machine. Nuts may be recovered if inadvertently blown in with the shells. The shorter tower improves stability and ease of loading. No maintenance is required except for emptying the shells and kernels, and cleaning as necessary. There are no complicated size adjustments or presorting nut sizes prior to cracking. Randomly mixed nuts ranging in size between 3/4” to 1-1/4” diameter, for example, may be processed simultaneously. The machine can be adjusted to crack a range of smaller nuts as desired by the customer down to nearly 5/8” diameter. However, smaller adjustment may reduce the percentage of undamaged halves for the largest nuts. The sheller is capable of running up to 150 pounds per hour. Results will vary. Due to many nut variables some lots will shell nearly all undamaged halves while others will not. We make no guarantees for % of halves because we know it will vary widely depending on variety and from lot to lot. Quality and speed of operation are dependent on many factors including moisture content, shell thickness, tightness of nut meat inside the shell, weight density of the nut meat and shell, average nut size, nut preparation, filter bag and bucket changes, etc.
