Vegetable Oils and Fats

After the oilseeds are conditioned, they are fed to a screw press, which crushes the oilseeds, separating the oil from the meal.

Mechanical Pressing

Screw Presses

United presses can be used for various oilseeds , such as peanut, canola, rapeseed, sunflower, soybean, sesame, cottonseed, corn germ, jatropha, pangomia etc.

Small Capacity Oil Presses

These small-scale screw presses are characterized by their high output, excellent build quality that allows continuous operation and ease of use.

High-Capacity Oil Presses

The EX-Series is designed keeping in mind high outputs with a low cost of operation and maintenance.

Cold pressing technology

United has successfully designed, manufactured and commissioned cold pressing plants

Features of the EX Series

The main frame is constructed with high tolerance levels and designed to absorb all types of forces associated with screw pressing.

Gearboxes are sourced from leading manufacturers, guaranteeing reliability and efficiency. They can withstand higher radial and axial loading and are supplied with water/air cooling or heating systems. The gearbox is belt driven for flexible operating speeds or with AC drives where extreme precision is desired.

The design is specific to the high thrust loads in the press.

Forged from special alloy steels to withstand high torque loads, the shafts can be easily removed without disturbing the drive section.

All wear parts are hardened with unique hard facing techniques. Quality controlled welding procedures ensure longer life spans. Worm assembly and cage bars can last entire seasons.

The cage splits in a vertical axis and opens to a horizontal plane which eases maintenance and replacement of the lining bars. The lining bars are made from specially hardened alloy steels and are designed for maximum drainage.

The press has a horizontal and vertical feeder. A PLC controls the feed into the press depending on the type of press.

A separate drive beneath the main press helps in the removal of oils and foots from the oil tray

Cake breaking knives, which disintegrate the cake while it is hot, can be installed. The rotating cutter has a stationary profile. In the case of pre-pressing the extractability of cake increases and in full pressing it helps reduce load on the cake cooling system.

The tool is hydraulically operated and specially designed for the EX Series. It ensures that once the worm assembly has been installed the space between the worms and collars are reduced to the minimum.

Using the frequency drive, the barring application ensures the press can be emptied without opening the chambers.

All wear parts are hardened with unique hard facing techniques. Quality controlled welding procedures ensure longer life spans. Worm assembly and cage bars can last entire seasons.

Hooks are provided on the side of the main body, so the opening of the cage and attaching it to the main frame to change bars is easier. No pressure is required to remove the worm assembly

Frequency drives on the main motor are used to precisely control the speed of the press. It can also be used as a barring application and helps in power saving.
