An oil expeller machine is used for refinement of oilseeds and extraction of oil from them. This forms an important part of the Indian economy. Expellers are a type of machine used for oil extraction and considered to be more economical than Kolhus and Ghanies, etc. It is an outcome of constant research and development by expert and qualified engineers in this field. The chamber cage bars, cones, etc. are made of high-quality steel. These are protected by a hard case to minimize the wear and tear. The remaining parts of the machine are made of special quality close grained cast iron. Heavy-duty ball bearings, thrust bearings and milling cut gears are fitted to ensure the smooth running of the machine.
The different types
Domestic oil extractor machine – The advanced technology used in this machine enables it to extract oil from different types of nuts and seeds like coconut, mustard, groundnut, almond, sesame and sunflower. The machines can be easily operated by only a single person. They come with an in-built hygiene design. These also help you save on your electric bill. Being made of pure stainless steel you can easily wash and keep it clean. With the help of a domestic oil extractor machine now you can make healthy virgin oil at home.
Commercial
oil extractor machine – It is designed for those who are planning to set up an
oil extracting business. These machines are based on advanced technology for
extracting oil from various nuts and seeds. They are designed to handle high
load inputs to enable higher oil extraction. These are extremely easy to
operate and have the capacity to work for long hours. The machine is made up of
stainless guaranteeing high performance and hardly needs any maintenance.
Advantages of using an oil expeller
Oil expellers are suitable for extracting almost any kind of oilseeds and nuts. The mechanism on which an oil expeller is based is quite simple and does not require much investment. Even a smallest solvent extraction plant has the capacity of100-200 tons per day, but expellers have a much smaller capacity of only about a few tons per day. But the oil extracted from these oil expellers contains no solvent or chemical residues like that of solvent extraction and are much pure enriched with the natural flavours. The process of extraction is responsible for the major quality difference in the oil found in natural marketplace and that available in supermarkets.
Why expelled oil is considered healthy
Mechanical extraction is a process of extracting oil followed for centuries. In this process, heavy pressure is applied to the seeds or nuts until oil starts seeping out. But it can yield only 65-70% of the oil. Many companies then tried to extract the rest of the oil by using some chemical solvent which turns the oil unhealthy. Mechanical pressing can create high temperatures, especially when squeezing hard nuts. This can change the flavor of the oil. Hence, considering all the aspects, it can be concluded that oil expellers produce much healthy oil which is recommended to stay healthy.
