• What is a canola oil press?
  • The canola oil press is a machine designed to extract oil from rapeseed plants. Canola oil, also known as rapeseed oil, is a golden, shiny, slightly transparent viscous liquid. It is commonly used in the cooking of all kinds of dishes and is one of the main oilseed crops in the world. The rapeseed contains 37.5% to 46.3% oil.
  • What are the types of canola oil extraction machine?
  • Our canola oil extraction machine offers two types: a canola screw press and a canola oil cold press machine. Both types can achieve hot pressing and cold pressing for different types of canola oil, depending on its oil content. Here’s how the canola screw press works:
  • How to press rapeseed in canola oil press?
  • To press rapeseed for canola oil using a press, put the rapeseed into the barrel. Press it with hydraulic oil without causing high temperature. After pressing, take out the cake or press it again.
  • How is canola oil extracted?
  • Canola oil is extracted using two main methods: Mechanical Press and Solvent Extraction. In the Mechanical Press method, Canola oilseeds are pressed in a series of Screw Presses / Expellers. This process does not use chemicals and leaves approximately 5-7% oil in the residual Cake/Meal.
  • What is the best moisture content for a canola press?
  • Canola presses best in the 6-8% moisture content range. All oilseeds, including canola, have moisture contents at which they press best. A general rule to start from is that the ideal moisture for pressing is in the 7-8% range.
  • What is the process for canola seed processing?
  • To process canola seeds, we need basic equipment including a Seed Cleaner, Seed Cooker/Kettle, Oil Press, Filter Press, Steam Boiler, Screw Conveyors, and Bucket Elevators. The process begins with seed cleaning, where canola seeds are separated and cleaned to remove impurities such as dust, metal, and plant stalks.
