Oil Press Screw

Oil press screw is very crucial in the oil extraction process. The seeds are placed in the pressing chamber through the hopper before the process begins. Here, the spiral turn works by squeezing the seeds. The chamber gets into high pressure and the screw squeezes the seeds to generate oil. There are bars around the screw or the commonly known, worm shaft which squeezes the seeds. The screw has tiny gaps in between and oil passes through these holes. Pressure forces the slow moving screw to crush the seeds as the force is applied on the bars moving forward to the exit plug. The plug is flexible and can be adjusted to suit the pressure required on the seeds.
Oil Press Screw
Heat is produced as pressure builds within the screw bars. The heat may be regulated to low temperatures to ensure the oil produced is pure and full of nutrients. This is because heat on the oil will burn out some nutrients from the oil. The screw oil press has a simple design which is easy and safe to operate. It is made with quality carbon steel and cannot wear or tear easily. It is able to work in any kind of temperature and pressure effectively.
