Due to cooking, the oil droplets in the seeds come together and also the cell wall is broken, this results in improved oil yield and low power consumption. A continuous screw press is used to extract the oil. The castor seed passes through the machine where the screw shaft is rotated in the parallel direction and crushing the seeds.
