What machines do you need for making peanut oil?

Making oil from peanuts can seem hard. You need the right tools to do it well. We can help you understand what machines you need.

You need machines for cleaning, shelling, roasting, pressing, and filtering peanuts. Sometimes you also need equipment to make the oil pure. These machines work together in a line.

Knowing the steps helps you know which machines are needed. The process starts with the raw peanuts. It ends with ready oil.

What machines clean and prepare peanuts?

Raw peanuts are dirty. They have shells and bad things inside. You need to clean them well first.

Machines clean the peanuts and get them ready for the next step. They take out dirt, stones, and shells. This makes the oil better.

This first part is very important. Dirty peanuts make bad oil. Getting them ready makes the oil taste good and last longer. We use different machines here.

How to make peanuts clean?

First, you must clean the raw peanuts. They have dust and dirt from the farm. They can also have small stones or pieces of metal. A cleaning machine takes these out. It uses screens and air. It shakes the peanuts. Bad things fall out.

How to take shells off peanuts?

Peanuts have a hard shell. You need to remove it. A shelling machine does this job. It cracks the shell. It leaves the peanut kernel. Shells make the oil dark. Taking them off helps make light oil.

How to cook peanuts before pressing?

Cooking peanuts is important for flavor. It also helps get more oil out. You use a roasting machine for this. It heats the peanuts. The heat changes things inside the peanut. This makes the oil flow out easier. We have machines that heat the peanuts evenly. Sometimes people use steaming machines instead of roasting machines. Steaming also prepares the nuts for pressing.

These machines make sure only the good part of the peanut goes to the next step.

What equipment extracts oil from peanuts?

After preparing peanuts, you need to get the oil out. This is the main step. It uses a powerful machine.

The oil press machine squeezes the peanuts. It pushes the oil out. This is the core part of making oil.

Getting the oil out needs pressure. The prepared peanuts go into a special machine. This machine squeezes them very hard. We have different types of these machines. They work differently. But they all do the same job. They separate the liquid oil from the solid part.

Here are the machines for getting the oil out:

Equipment	Function	Benefit
Screw Oil Press	Squeezes oil from material	High oil yield, continuous
Hydraulic Oil Press	Presses oil using pressure	Good for small scale, easy
Filter Press	Removes solids from crude oil	Cleaner oil, better look

These machines work together. First, you press the peanuts. Then you filter the oil. This gives you crude peanut oil.

How do you get pure peanut oil?

Crude peanut oil has things you might not want in it. It has gums, acids, color, and smell. Making it pure needs more work.

Refining machines take out bad things from the oil. They make the oil light, clear, and good for many uses. This makes edible oil.

Refining is like giving the oil a bath. You use different steps to clean it more. This makes the oil better quality. People who sell cooking oil usually refine it. This makes it safe and nice to use for cooking or other food products. We offer different refining systems. They can be small or big.

What machines remove sticky stuff (gums)?

Crude oil has gums. Gums are sticky things like phospholipids. You need to take them out. This step is called degumming. You use water or acid. The gums mix with the water or acid. Then they separate from the oil. We have special tanks for this. Removing gums makes the oil stable.

What machines remove acid?

Crude oil has free fatty acids. They make the oil taste bad and smoke when heated. You need to remove them. This step is called deacidification or neutralization. You add a substance that reacts with the acid. The acid turns into soap. You can take the soap out. Sometimes you use heat and steam instead. This is called physical refining.

What machines take out color?

Crude peanut oil has color. People want light or clear oil. You use a bleaching machine for this. You add special clay. The clay soaks up the color like a sponge. Then you filter out the clay. The oil becomes lighter.

What machines take out bad smells?

Crude oil can have smells. These smells come from the peanuts or the processing. You need to remove them. This step is called deodorization. You heat the oil very hot. You use steam. The steam takes the smells away. This leaves the oil with almost no smell.

These machines help make high quality edible peanut oil.

What other equipment helps the process?

Putting all the main machines together is important. But other machines help the whole line work well. They move things around and pack the final product.

Other equipment makes the process smoother. It moves materials between machines. It also puts the final oil into bottles or bags.

A full oil line needs more than just the main machines. You need ways to move the peanuts and the oil from one place to the next. You also need to get the oil ready to sell. We provide all these helper machines. They connect everything. They make the line automatic.

How do you move materials?

You need conveyors. Conveyors are like moving belts or screws. They carry the peanuts from the cleaning machine to the roaster. They carry the roasted peanuts to the press. They move the oil to the filter or refining tanks. Using conveyors means you don’t have to carry things by hand. This saves time and energy. We have different types of conveyors for different materials.

How do you filter the oil?

We already talked about filter presses. But there are different types. Some are simple plate and frame filters. Some are pressure filters. They all clean the oil by taking out solid bits. Filters are used after pressing. They are also used after bleaching in the refining process. Having good filters means your oil is clear.

How do you package the oil?

After the oil is ready, you need to put it in containers. This could be bottles, cans, or large bags. A packaging machine does this job. It fills the containers with the right amount of oil. It seals the containers. This makes the oil ready to ship or sell. We can provide packaging machines that fit your needs.

These machines help make a complete production line.

Making peanut oil needs a set of specific machines. They work from cleaning to packaging. We provide all the equipment you need.
