Vegetable Oil Extraction Machine

Product Description

Types of Vegetable Oil Extraction Machines

1. Expeller Presses:

   • Cold Press: Extracts oil without heating, preserving the nutritional quality and flavor of the oil.
   • Hot Press: Uses heat to extract more oil and increase efficiency but may affect the oil's quality.

2. Solvent Extractors:

   • Utilizes solvents like hexane to dissolve and extract oil from the seeds or nuts. After extraction, the solvent is evaporated, leaving behind the oil.

3. Hydraulic Presses:

   • Uses hydraulic pressure to squeeze oil from seeds. Typically used for smaller scale operations or high-quality, artisanal oils.

4. Screw Presses:

   • Employs a screw mechanism to press oil from seeds. This is a common choice for larger scale operations due to its efficiency.

Key Components

1. Feeder: Introduces the seeds into the machine.
2. Crushing Chamber: Breaks down the seeds to prepare them for extraction.
3. Pressing Chamber: Where the actual extraction takes place, using mechanical force or heat.
4. Filter: Removes impurities and particulates from the extracted oil.
5. Oil Cake Outlet: The byproduct of the extraction process, which can be used as animal feed or compost.
