For example, in Malaysia, almost all the palm oil mill plants adopt complete large scale palm oil extraction process, which is very advanced and high production efficiency. But in Africa, large scale palm oil extraction process is not very suitable for local market, so Henan Glory Company designs small scale automatic palm oil extraction process, which is very popular among African customers.

All in all, the process and machine of palm oil extraction will vary from customer budgets, different processing volumes, and technical reasons. So far, Henan Glory Company supplies three types of palm oil pressing line, which you can choose.

1. Simple palm oil press line

The simple palm oil press line contains a threshing machine, an palm oil press and a plate filter, which is suitable for customers with a processing capacity of less than 2 tons per hour. Its advantages are simple operation and low cost.

We will recommend that customers buy a large pot locally and boil the fruit bunches for about 2 hours. This process is called sterilization. Although its efficiency is relatively low, it saves a lot of costs. This method also existed in Africa a long time ago and has been passed down to the present. The efficiency of the threshing machine can reach more than 98%. Although it is simple, it can meet the requirements. The oil press machine and the filter are configured according to the actual processing capacity of the customer.

2. Small palm oil press line

Glory Company small palm oil press line contains complete palm oil extraction process, the equipment including palm fruit sterilizer, thresher, digesting machine, palm oil presser, vibrating screen, oil dry system, steam boiler, etc. Its processing capacity is 1-5tph. Although the capacity is small , it is belongs to fully automated production lines, suitable for customers with sufficient funds and high requirements for product oil.

The following is the 3D animation of Glory Company small palm oil press line. You can see it to learn about the complete palm oil extraction process.

As the video shows, there is little need for manual participation in the palm oil extraction process. The sterilization tank is vertical sterilization tank. After sterilizing, the hoist will transport the fruit bunches in the fruit cages to the thresher, and palm fruit will be separated from the fruit bunches. Then conveying auger will transport these palm fruits to the palm fruit digester to be minced. The oil presser is generally placed under the digester to facilitate timely pressing. For the filtration stage, a  vibrating screen, an crude oil clarification tank and a plate filter are generally configured to filter different impurities in the crude oil. At last, you can get clean red crude palm oil.

I can tell you that this small palm oil press line is by far the most efficient and advanced method in small capacity palm oil mill. Although it has a high initial investment, the later cost will be low, and customers will get higher quality crude oil. If you want to start palm oil production business, welcome to contact us now!
