A high torque and low rotational speed palm kernel oil expeller machine was developed by introducing an adjustable choke mechanism that permits adjustment of the back pressure to regulate the thickness and dryness of the pressed cake passing through the clearance between the barrel and the screw shaft.
What are the machines used in palm kernel oil extraction plant?
The main machines used in palm kernel oil extraction plant include nut & fiber separating machine, palm kernel crushing machine, cooking machine, palm kernel oil extraction machine (mechanical screw pressing), oil filter press machine, etc. Nut & Fiber Separation: It is also known as palm kernel recovery.
Which equipment should be used for palm kernel oil extraction?
Palm Kernel Oil Extraction Equipment: Crusher, Dryer, Oil Expeller Solvent extraction plant is recommended for large palm kernel oil mill with high capacity. However, For the purposes of small-scale operations it is sufficient to mention the solvent extraction process is an alternative for high capacity mills.
How are palm kernels cleaned?
The palm kernels are subjected to cleaning in a seed cleaner. It is a Vibrating screen unit for separating trash, impurities from the kernels. The cleaned Kernels are fed to a palm kernel oil expeller machine, which consists of a main shaft and worms, which rotates within a stationary perforated cylinder called a cage or barrel.
