How Long Does It Take to Build a Palm Oil Processing Plant?
It takes about 6-12 months to build a palm oil mill plant. (From the signing of the contract between the buyer and the seller to the start of production of the palm oil plant.) Building a palm oil processing plant mainly includes five parts: design drawings, drawing inspection, equipment production, transportation and installation and commissioning. The reason for such a large time span is that different production capacities take different time on the one hand, and the actual production progress during the installation and commissioning process is affected by many factors on the other hand. Below Huatai Oil Machinery will introduce the time of each section in detail based on actual cases.
For a palm oil processing plant with a processing capacity of 1-5TPH, it takes about 6-7 months. For example, Huatai Oil Machinery built a 3TPH palm oil pressing plant in Nigeria. It took a total of 6 months from the buyer’s order to the start of production of the palm oil plant. First, it takes about 20 days for Huatai Oil Machinery’s engineers to design drawings and check drawings. Secondly, it takes about 45 days for the production plant to produce the palm oil processing equipment required for each part according to the order requirements. Finally, the sea transportation time from the Chinese port to the Lagos port is about 45 days. After receiving the palm oil processing equipment, Huatai Oil Machinery dispatched the chief engineer to guide the installation and commissioning of the machine, and trained local workers on how to operate the machine, which took about 2-3 months.
Warm Tips: During the installation process, the buyer’s preparation and cooperation are very important. The buyer needs to prepare the site in advance. Most importantly, the buyer needs to hire highly skilled welders, electricians and laborers to cooperate with our chief engineer. Otherwise, the project installation progress of the palm oil mill will be delayed.
For large palm oil processing plants such as 15TPH, 30TPH, 45TPH, 60TPH, it takes about 12 months. For example, we built an 80TPH palm oil processing plant in Ghana. It took a total of 12 months to install the palm oil mill project. It took about 1 month to design the drawings and 3-4 months to complete the production. The transportation took about 20 days, and the most time-consuming part was the installation, which took about 8 months to install the equipment required for the entire factory.
Admittedly, the time to build a palm oil mill is related to many factors, but choosing a reliable palm oil equipment manufacturer is undoubtedly an effective way to shorten the construction time of a palm oil processing plant. Reliable palm oil equipment manufacturers have rich experience in production, transportation and installation, which can avoid detours during the installation process and help customers complete the construction of palm oil mills as soon as possible.
