Pre-Press Machine (Expeller) — 50-500 TPD
Pre-press machines extract 60-70% of oil mechanically before solvent extraction, leaving 12-18% residual oil cake. Reduces solvent extraction capacity requirements and improves overall plant efficiency with integrated oil collection and filtration systems.
Models & Configurations
- Screw press: Continuous mechanical pre-pressing
- Hydraulic press: Hydraulically driven pre-pressing
- Capacity-sized units: Configured for lines from 50 to 500 TPD

Frequently Asked Questions
What capacity range do your pre-press machines cover?
Lines from 50 to 500 TPD, in screw press and hydraulic press configurations.
How much oil does the pre-press remove?
The pre-press extracts 60-70% of the available oil mechanically, leaving 12-18% residual oil in the cake for the solvent extraction stage — the standard approach for high-oil seeds where direct solvent extraction alone is inefficient.
Is the pre-press (expeller) customised to my requirement?
Yes. Every machine we build is custom-engineered — capacity, dimensions, and configuration are matched to your line. Send your requirement via the enquiry form or call +91 91091 02280 for a firm quote.
*This is only an approximate starting price — a rough, loose estimate. Every machine is custom-engineered to your requirements, so the final price depends on capacity, specifications, and configuration — reach out for a firm quote.
