• Can a mechanical oil expeller press be used for small scale oil extraction?
  • A mechanical oil expeller press was designed, constructed & further analyzed with simulation software (ANSYS) in this research work. This expeller can be useful for small scale oil extraction. ASME shaft design code was used in designing the screw shaft of the press. Locally available material (mild steel) was used in manufacturing of the expeller.
  • What is the Anderson Lion expeller oil press?
  • The Anderson Lion Expeller Oil press is designed to continue Anderson¡¯s long-standing tradition of providing the industry with the most durable and efficient mechanical screw presses on the market.
  • How does a oil expeller work?
  • Locally available material (mild steel) was used in manufacturing of the expeller. A 20 hp 3-phase electric motor was used for running the machine and the rpm of the screw was maintained 140 rpm. A screw rotates inside the barrel of the press which creates pressure for the extraction of oil.
  • What are the parts of oil expeller machine?
  • This includes body, kettle, main shaft, gears, worms, bearings, barrel, cutter, cone and collar. To rotate the cage, the screw shaft is provided with the gear assembly. The following are the parts involved in the manufacture of oil expeller machine.
  • What is the efficiency & capacity of oil expeller?
  • The expeller has an efficiency & capacity ranging between 68.2% and 85.22 gm/min~98.52 gm/min respectively. ariation of Extracted oil with respect to time 94.398%~97.3% for Material Discharge Efficiency (MDE), 85.22 gm/min~98.52 gm/min for Machine Capacity (MCP).
  • What seeds can a screw press machine process?
  • Our screw press machines are capable to process a variety of seeds and nuts such as Castor Seeds, Coconut / Copra, Cotton Seeds, Groundnuts / Peanuts / Earthnuts, Sunflower Seeds, Jatropha Seeds, Mustard Seeds / Rapeseeds / Canola Seeds, Neem Seeds, Palm Kernel, Sesame Seeds, Shea Nuts, Soyabean / Soybean, Flax Seeds, Karanja Seeds etc.
