High‑Precision Nut Kernel & Shell Separation Machine for Recycling – Autotreatment Stokkermill Sorter
Improve nut shell and kernel separation in recycled food streams with the Autotreatment Stokkermill Sorter — a high‑efficiency, AI‑enabled sorting solution.

Introduction to the Autotreatment Stokkermill Sorter
The Autotreatment Stokkermill Sorter is an advanced sorting system developed for efficient nut kernel and shell separation in recycling and material recovery processes. This solution combines high‑resolution optical detection with intelligent processing to automatically distinguish and separate shells from kernels, streamlining workflows in nut processing and recycled food material sorting lines. Designed for high throughput and precision, it delivers reliable separation performance to enhance product quality and reduce manual sorting labor.
Applications and Material Compatibility
This sorter is especially effective in applications involving mixed bulk materials where separation of nut kernels from shells is critical, such as cashew, walnut, almond, pistachio, and macadamia processing streams. It supports industries focused on recycling agricultural by‑products and recovered nut fractions from food recovery operations, enabling high‑purity separation of kernels while efficiently removing shell fragments and other contaminants from recycled material streams.
Technology and Operational Performance
At the core of the Autotreatment Stokkermill Sorter is a high‑resolution imaging and recognition system, enhanced with hundreds of classification algorithms that identify materials based on shape and surface features. The machine’s large optical viewing angle and robust detection channel allow clear distinction between kernel and shell, even in oily or irregularly shaped materials. Durable, corrosion‑resistant construction ensures stable, long‑term operation under industrial conditions common to sorting and recycling facilities.
Operational Benefits and Efficiency
The Autotreatment Stokkermill Sorter significantly improves yield and throughput in separation workflows by automating high‑precision shell removal and kernel recovery. With sorting accuracy exceeding 99.9% and optimized material flow design, it contributes to higher output quality and reduced waste. Its user‑friendly interface allows simplified operation and remote monitoring, while intelligent interconnection supports cloud‑based data access and reduced downtime — making it a versatile choice for modern recycling plants and nut processing operations.
