Components and Functions of a Small Oil Press Line
A small oil press production line consists of several integrated machines that work together to extract high-quality oil from oil-rich seeds and nuts. Common raw materials include sunflower seeds, peanuts, soybeans, cottonseeds, sesame, and more.
1. Cleaning Sieve
Removes impurities such as dust, stones, and metal particles from the raw seeds. Clean seeds ensure smoother operation, higher oil yield, and better oil quality.
2. Oil Seed Roaster
Roasting or heating the seeds is a critical step in the oil extraction process. It helps break down cell structures, reduces moisture, and improves both oil yield and flavor.
3.Oil Press Machine

This is the core of the production line. Modern small oil press machines often come as integrated units, combining pressing and vacuum filtration in one compact system. This design not only maximizes oil yield but also reduces initial investment. For small-scale producers, an automatic oil press ensures consistent performance with minimal manual intervention.
4. Oil Filter System
After pressing, crude oil contains sediments and impurities. The oil filter purifies the oil, making it clear, safe, and ready for consumption or packaging.
5. Screw Elevator/Conveyor
This equipment automates the movement of seeds and cake between machines, reducing labor and improving workflow efficiency.
Key Features and Benefits of a Small Oil Press Line
- Cost-Effective Investment
Compared to large-scale oil processing plants, a small oil press production line requires significantly lower capital and installation costs. This makes it an ideal choice for startups and small businesses. - Compact and Space-Saving
With a smaller footprint, this setup allows producers to operate efficiently without the need for large factory spaces. This is especially beneficial for rural or urban settings where space is limited. - Low Labor Requirements
Thanks to semi-automated operation, only 2–3 workers are needed to manage the entire oil press line. This reduces labor costs and simplifies production management. - Versatile and Adaptable
Our oil press machines can process a wide variety of oil seeds, enabling producers to switch between products like peanut oil, sunflower oil, or sesame oil based on market demand. - High Oil Yield and Quality
With advanced roasting and pressing technology, our systems ensure high oil recovery rates and premium oil quality—helping you build a trusted brand.
How to Choose the Right Oil Press Machine
When selecting a small oil press production line, consider the following:
- Capacity: Match the machine’s output with your production goals.
- Oil Seed Type: Ensure the system is compatible with the seeds you plan to process.
- Automation Level: Choose between manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic systems based on your budget and labor availability.
- After-Sales Support: Partner with a supplier like Huanyang that offers installation, training, and technical support.
For any business seeking to enter the edible oil industry with limited capital, investing in a small oil press production line is a wise decision. It combines affordability, high efficiency, and ease of operation, enabling you to produce high-quality edible oil while controlling costs.
