Recently, our company successfully completed and shipped two peanut machines specifically designed for peanuts—a peanut harvester and a peanut picker—to support a well-known French peanut food processing enterprise.
The French customer specializes in peanut food processing and has many years of experience in developing and selling peanut snacks, sauces, and baking ingredients. As a brand that consumers trust, the company prioritizes product quality and sustainable production, continually striving to optimize every step of the process, from the farm to the finished product.
Requirements for peanut machines
When purchasing the equipment, the customer outlined specific performance requirements, particularly emphasizing the following aspects:
- High-efficiency processing capacity: the equipment must handle high-intensity operations during the French peanut harvest season, minimize labor inputs, and enhance the efficiency of raw material processing.
- Strong adaptability: the design of the equipment should accommodate the characteristics of local peanut varieties, such as stem length, moisture content, and trailing fruit ratio, to ensure minimal fruit damage.
- Quality assurance: the equipment must maintain the integrity and purity of the peanuts, providing high-quality raw materials for further processing.
Advantages and usage of shipping equipment
Peanut harvester
The peanut harvester is an efficient machine specifically designed for harvesting peanuts in the field. Its main functions include digging, cleaning, and conveying peanuts. Given the suitable climatic conditions and growing environment in the French region, this model provides several advantages:
- This equipment can swiftly complete the peanut harvesting process, minimizing the tedious steps involved in manual harvesting, with an hourly capacity of 0.15-0.22 hm².
- The optimized shaker design minimizes damage to the peanut fruits, ensuring they remain fresh and intact.
- It can adjust to various soil types, particularly the loamy and sandy soils found in French peanut-growing areas while maintaining stable performance.
Peanut picker
The peanut picker is engineered for efficient processing, assisting customers in the stem separation and fruit picking of peanuts. This model boasts several key advantages:
- Designed for the local peanut stem length of 30-70cm in France, with a trailing fruit ratio of 0.5-1.5, it achieves efficient and precise fruit picking, ensuring a fruit purity of 95% or higher.
- The innovative low-speed picking system and well-spaced rotating axle significantly lower the breakage rate of the fruit, enhancing overall yield.
- It effectively manages peanut vines with a dry picking stem moisture content of no more than 15%, making it well-suited for fall picking conditions in France.
Customer feedback and follow-up needs
The customer has received the peanut machines. Once the equipment is in operation, the company not only saves a considerable amount on labor costs but also greatly enhances the efficiency of raw material processing, leading to increased value for subsequent processing.
Recently, the customer reached out again to inquire about our peanut roasting machine(Electric & Gase Peanut Roasting Machine Groundnut Roaster For Sale), intending to refine the roasting process further to deliver higher-quality peanut products to consumers.
