Abstract

Experiments were done on Morama beans (Tylosema esculentum) using macadamia nut crackers. Results and subsequent design work done thereafter showed that the cracking of the beans, their alignment during cracking and separation of kernels from shells presented peculiar challenges unresolvable by conventional processes.
