Abstract: This work focused on the design and development of a manually operated roasted groundnut seeds peeling machine. The machine comprises a specially designed peeling chamber which greatly reduces the amount of breakages during peeling and a transmission mechanism which greatly reduces the required effort to drive the system. It has a peeling efficiency of about 85% which is an improvement over previously fabricated designs. The machine is easy to operate and has a capacity of 5.4kg/hr of roasted groundnut seeds. With such capacity, the machine can be used both in medium scale industries and also for domestic needs of peeled roasted groundnut seeds.
