Solvent Extraction Plant Machines

Precision-engineered machinery for efficient oil seed processing and extraction.

We design end-to-end equipment for oil seed preparation, extraction, and meal handling. The line improves oil recovery, reduces energy use, and delivers consistent quality.

Used across soybean, sunflower, rapeseed, and other oil seeds in India and abroad. Each machine is built to your capacity, process parameters, and plant layout.

Everything on this page is built to order at our Pithampur works near Indore and delivered by road to plants across India. Our own engineers erect and commission the equipment on your site and train the people who will run it, foundation and utility drawings go out ahead of despatch so your civil work is ready, and wear parts and spares are held at Indore rather than imported. Equipment is fabricated to the relevant IS standards, and prices are quoted in Indian rupees ex-works Pithampur with GST invoiced separately.

Seed Preparation Equipment

Seed Cracker

Cracks whole seeds to the right particle size before flaking, 50 to 500 TPD.

Breaker Rolls

Breaker rolls for uniform size reduction ahead of flaking, 50 to 500 TPD.

Conditioner

Controls seed moisture and temperature before flaking, 50 to 500 TPD.

Cooker

Steam or indirect heating to condition seeds for flaking and extraction, 50 to 500 TPD.

Flaker Machine

Uniform flakes (0.25-0.35 mm) for efficient solvent contact.

Extraction & Processing Equipment

Expander & Extruder

Increase bulk density and porosity to improve extractability, 50 to 500 TPD.

Pre-press cage barrel with its feed inlet and the gearbox at the drive end

Squeezer

High-pressure pressing for mechanical oil extraction or pre-pressing, 50 to 500 TPD.

Post-Extraction Equipment

Drier Cooler

Reduces meal temperature and moisture for safe storage, 50 to 500 TPD.

Heat Transfer Equipment

Steam radiator element with finned tubes, return bends and two flanged connections

Steam Radiator & Heat Exchanger

Heat transfer equipment including fin tube radiators and shell-and-tube exchangers, to 200°C.

Hydraulic Systems

Hydraulic Cylinder

Heavy-duty cylinders for linear force in plant equipment. Bore 40 to 250 mm.

Hydraulic Power Pack

Compact power units with pump, reservoir, filtration, and controls, 2 to 50 HP.

Hydraulic Bag Stacker

Automated stacking for 25-50 kg bags with reduced labor.

Machines at a glance

Every machine on this page, with its capacity and what it does.
Machine	Capacity	What it does
Seed Preparation Equipment
Seed Cracker	50-500 TPD	Seed crackers break whole seeds into a few uniform pieces between counter-rotating corrugated rolls turning at different speeds.
Breaker Rolls	50-500 TPD	Breaker rolls reduce oversized seeds and seed clusters between counter-rotating rolls.
Conditioner	50-500 TPD	The conditioner sits between cracking and flaking.
Cooker	50-500 TPD	Cookers give seed a longer and hotter thermal treatment than standard conditioning.
Flaker Machine	50-500 TPD	Oilseed flaker machines roll conditioned seed into thin, uniform flakes, multiplying the surface area the solvent can reach and so the oil it can recover.
Extraction & Processing Equipment
Expander & Extruder	50-500 TPD	Expanders turn conditioned seed into porous pellets.
Pre-Press Machine (Expeller)	50-500 TPD	A pre-press takes most of the oil out mechanically before the seed reaches solvent extraction.
Post-Extraction Equipment
Drier Cooler	50-500 TPD	Meal coolers bring extracted meal down from desolventiser temperature and dry it at the same time, on counter-current or cross-flow air.
Heat Transfer Equipment
Steam Radiator & Heat Exchanger	—	Heat exchange for solvent extraction plants, in two forms: fin tube radiators for air and space heating, where extended surface does the work, and shell-and-tube exchangers for higher-pressure process duty.
Hydraulic Systems
Hydraulic Cylinder	—	Heavy-duty hydraulic cylinders supply the linear force behind presses, tilters, lifters and gate actuators across solvent extraction plants and steel handling machinery.
Hydraulic Power Pack	—	A hydraulic power pack is the drive side of a hydraulic machine supplied as one unit, so a press, tilter or lift can be built or retrofitted without assembling a circuit from separate parts.
Hydraulic Bag Stacker	25-50kg per bag	Hydraulic bag stackers stack packed meal bags at the end of the bagging line, taking out the most injury-prone lift in the plant and the labour that goes with it.
