What types of palm oil extraction methods can be used in palm oil production process?

There are two methods of extracting palm oil from the palm fruit: traditional pressing method and mechanized pressing method. The process flow of these two methods are as follows：

1. Traditional pressing method

Traditional palm oil processing

In this method, the palm fruit cooked in a large pot and smashed manually is mashed into the fruit flesh, poured into a squeeze container, and pressed on the squeeze container with a stone to increase the pressure, and finally squeezed by manpower to obtain pressed palm oil.

In this method, the palm fruit that has been cooked easily by a big pot and manually threshed is mashed into fruit pulp and poured into the squeeze container and pressed by stones on the squeeze container to increase the pressure, finally squeezed by manpower.

2. Mechanized pressing method

Mechanized palm oil processing machine

In this method, the palm fruit obtained after manual or mechanical threshing is poured into a cooking tank for cooking, next is transported to a digester for digesting. Then the palm oil in the palm fruit is pressed out by the mechanical external force of the specialized palm oil press. The mechanized palm oil production line can also be equipped with crude palm oil clarification tank and drying system to basically remove impurities and moisture in the crude palm oil and improve the quality of palm oil.

The comparison of the two palm oil pressing methods shows that although the traditional pressing method saves equipment procurement costs, the production efficiency is reduced and with a high degree of manual intervention, time-consuming and laborious; while the mechanized pressing method has higher equipment costs, however, it can meet the needs of large processing capacity, and two to three people can complete the control of the entire production process, and the production efficiency far exceeds the traditional process.

In summary, The mechanical pressing method is currently a better choice for the palm oil production process, and it is also the development trend of the palm oil production industry. If you have special requirements for the production line, you can also customize the production line. Welcome to consult us, Doing company will serve you wholeheartedly.
