Cashew Kernel Packing System

Graded kernels get a final visual check on the inspection conveyor, then move to packing — vita tins with bell jar vacuum assembly for the domestic wholesale market, or vacuum/CO2-flush packing for export shipment.

Variable Inspection Belt Speed

SS304 Contact Surfaces

Vacuum + CO2/N2 Shelf-Life Flush

50% Less Inspection Labour

LOCUS vita tin packing bell jar assembly with vacuum pump and pressure gauge — Vita tin packing with bell jar assembly for the domestic wholesale market

LOCUS vacuum packing machine line for export market cashew kernels — Vacuum packing line configured for export-market shipment

LOCUS tin filling machine for packed cashew kernels — Tin filling machine for consistent fill weight per container

Why It Matters

The last check before it leaves the plant

Packing is the last point where a mis-graded kernel or a shelf-life problem can still be caught — or created. Inspection, fill accuracy and the right atmosphere inside the container all matter to what arrives at the customer's door.

Variable speed drive and food-grade belt on the inspection conveyor, with an aluminium extrusion frame
Divider and touching surface sheet in SS304, with auto-magnetic vibrator feeder for controlled flow
Increases the speed of manual inspection while needing half the labour of unassisted checking
Vita tin bell jar assembly includes safety valve, pressure gauge, vacuum pump and fittings for the local wholesale Indian market
Pneumatic actuator lifts the bell jar assembly, creating vacuum before flushing carbon dioxide or nitrogen
Gas flushing extends shelf life of packed cashew kernels for both domestic and export shipment

Packing, by the numbers

50% Less inspection labour

Machine Architecture

What's inside a LOCUS packing line?

Four machines cover inspection through to sealed, shelf-stable packaging — configured for either domestic wholesale or export shipment.

Inspection conveyor

Variable speed, food-grade belt with auto-magnetic vibrator feeder controls flow for accurate manual inspection.

Bell jar vacuum assembly

Pneumatic actuator lifts the bell jar; a vacuum pump and pressure gauge pull vacuum before gas flushing.

Tin filling machine

Fills tins to a consistent weight ahead of sealing, for both vita tin and export packing formats.

Export vacuum packing

A dedicated vacuum packing line handles higher-throughput export orders separately from the vita tin line.

CO2 / N2 flushing

Carbon dioxide or nitrogen flush after vacuum extends shelf life without affecting kernel flavour or texture.

SS304 throughout

All surfaces that touch kernels — conveyor dividers, filling equipment — are food-grade SS304.

Specifications

Packing system specifications

Configured for either the domestic wholesale market or export shipment, per project.

Stage	Key Specification
Inspection conveyor	Variable speed drive, food-grade belt, aluminium extrusion frame, SS304 divider & contact sheet
Vita tin packing	Bell jar assembly with safety valve, pressure gauge, vacuum pump & fittings for local wholesale market
Bell jar operation	Pneumatic actuator lift, vacuum before CO2 / nitrogen flush for shelf life
Vacuum packing (export)	Dedicated conveyorized line for export-market packaging volumes
Tin filling	Consistent fill weight per container ahead of sealing

The packing system is the final stage of a complete kernel processing line, supplied downstream of the grading system.
