Palm Oil Pressing Machine
Because of cooking, sterilizing, threshing and mashing made the pulp soft and damage pulp cell structure, the palm pulp becomes soft and cell is broken. Then it is sent to continuous screw press. After pressing, oil palm fruit is divided into two parts: the mixture of oil, water and solid impurities, and the press cake (fiber and nut). The pulp stone separation obtained CPO and stone, press machine adopts the double screw helix continuous discharge and hydraulic, greatly improving production efficiency.
Palm Oil Press Station: Separate palm fruit and kernel, and Palm Oil Press Machine can obtain CPO (crude palm oil) and palm kernel. The adoption of double screw and hydraulic oil press machine can greatly improving working efficiency during palm oil processing.
Process Flow of Palm Oil Pressing Processing Line
- Palm fruits through elevator and conveyors, enters into upper steaming boiler of oil press machine.
- Stirring and heating with steam to destroy the emulsified state forming from oil and water, where in the coagulation protein denaturation and to reduce the viscosity of the oil for further convenience of palm oil pressing process.
- Digesting temperature keeps at 95-100℃ about 20 minutes.
- Palm fruit after digesting enters into screw oil expeller for palm oil pressing.
Palm Oil Press Station:
Separate palm fruit and kernel, and palm oil press machine can obtain CPO (crude palm oil) and palm kernel.
Main Station Description:
1. Sterilizer
As the first step in palm fruit crushing, sterilization is crucial to the quality of palm oil.
2. Threshing
The main function of threshing is to separate the palm fruits from the fruit bunches. The sterilized palm fruit bunches are transported to the drum threshing machine.
3. Pressing Process
The pressing process requires maximum extraction of palm oil from the pulp, but the kernels cannot be broken because the crushed palm kernel oil will contaminate the crude palm oil and affect the quality. Using two or more pressing processes can effectively reduce the cracking rate of nuts.
4. Purify and Clarify
The mixture in the clarifier is crude palm oil, water and a small amount of solid particles. The traditional clarification method is gravity separation.

What is The Yield of Crude Palm Oil?
After experimental studies, the oil yield of tons of crude palm oil is about 20%-23%. Of course, the oil yield is not fixed, it is affected by many factors, such as the ripeness of the palm fruit, the size and quality of the fruit, the method and time of harvesting, etc. Therefore, in actual operation, it must be adjusted according to the actual situation. The oil content of palm oil extracted from the fruit varies from 17% to 27%, while the kernel varies from 4% to 10%.
Palm yield
136 palm trees/Ha=20-23t FFB/Ha/year
CPO=4-5t/Ha/year
CPKO = 0.55 t/Ha/year
FFB=10-25Kg
FFB= 20% CPO; 2.5% CPKO
Cost Analysis of Processing 10TPH Palm Fruit
| Ingredients: | Palm fruit skewers, containing about 65% palm fruit (of which about 52% palm pulp, about 13% palm kernel) |
| Oil yield: | About 26%, of which the residual oil rate is about 6% |
| Processing capacity: | 10 tons/hour, 8 hours per day |
| Power consumption: | 20kw/h |
If your palm fruit processing capacity is about 1-5 tons/hour, you can choose the standard configuration of palm oil production line equipment, mainly by the fermentation tank, fruit extractor, mashing tank, palm oil press, rotary sieve and plate and frame filter and other equipment, the investment is generally from hundreds of thousands to millions, mostly suitable for medium-sized palm oil processing plant.
Feasibility Analysis of Investment in Palm Oil Processing Plant:
Investment in palm oil processing plant has a stable and broad market development prospects, mainly reflected in the palm oil processing raw materials sufficient, large market demand, and large profit margins.
1. Palm Fruit Raw Materials are Sufficient
The palm fruit tree is a long-term crop with four flowering and fruiting seasons. It can provide a stable and continuous supply of raw materials for palm fruit processing, and the yield per hectare of palm fruit is 5 times higher than that of peanuts in the same area, and 9 times higher than that of soybeans. People who have seen oil palm trees know that the fruit of oil palm trees is very rich, a large string, the fruit is orange red when ripe, and the average weight of each string can reach more than 100 pounds.
In addition, the growth cycle of oil palm trees is perennial, blooming and bearing fruit all year round, and can harvest several times a year. And not only the fruit, the peel can also be used to press oil, so the oil yield per unit area of palm oil is also quite high. It requires very little to grow an oil palm tree, a tropical fruit tree that can survive in Asia, the Americas, and Africa. As long as the external environment meets its growth, it will seize resources and strive to grow at all costs.
2. Palm Oil Market Demand is Large
At present, the palm oil imported from China is mainly used in the processing of composite edible oil, because of its low boiling point, many are used in the processing of instant noodles and biscuits. Palm oil also has many uses in the catering, food industry and oil and grease chemical industry. Palm oil is currently the world’s largest vegetable oil production, consumption and international trade volume, accounting for 30% of the world’s total oil consumption. This means that the market demand for palm oil is very high.
3. Palm Oil Has Large Profit Margins
The net profit and rate of return on the production investment of palm oil processing plants are often the focus of our attention and one of the main criteria to measure the development prospects of palm oil projects. The net profit margin of palm oil is about 5% higher than that of soybean oil and peanut oil.
