The full set of Palm Kernel Oil (PKO) Processing Machines include Husker, Crusher, Cooker, Oil Press Expeller, Oil Filter, Oil Refinery Machine, etc.. However, due to the small processing capacity of a single oil press, a large scale palm kernel oil mill plant require a large number of palm kernel oil expellers.
How does a palm kernel oilcake work?
The expelled kernel oil flows through the slots distributed over the barrel circumference. The oilcake leaves the extraction machine through an adjustable cone and is then delivered to the second pressing Because of their high oil content, Palm kernels have to be subjected to 2 stage pressing for maximum oil yield.
How palm kernel oil is extracted?
However, due to the small processing capacity of a single oil press, a large scale palm kernel oil mill plant require a large number of palm kernel oil expellers. Detailed palm kernel oil extraction process by mechanical pressing method is as follow. Palm Kernel Oil (PKO) Processing Flow Chart
How does a palm kernel oil expeller work?
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. As the main shaft turns, there is a decrease in volume resulting in pressure in the cage.
