We often get customers asking: Can I use the same extraction machine to produce soybean oil and sunflower oil? First of all, if the customer's cooking oil extraction plant production scale is small, limited budget, we think it is feasible. If the customer's edible oil extraction plant has medium production scale and wants to save costs, we suggest that part of the machine can be used together with two kinds of oil. But if you have a larger oil extraction plant and want to be more economical, we recommend using different machine to produce sunflower oil and soybean oil.

I'm going to show you how to make choices in different situations.

Situation 1: When the production scale is small and the extraction capacity is small, the same machine is used to meet the production requirements.

If your extraction capacity is less than 30 tons per day, but you start your business with the intention of making more money with a smaller investment cost. In this case, you can simply purchase oil seed roasters, oil extraction machine and oil filters to meet your production needs. But it is important to note that it is better to produce in a certain order, so we produce sunflower oil first and then soybean oil. Because there will be sunflower oil residue in the oil extraction machine and oil filter, it may affect the quality of the subsequent production of soybean oil. Therefore, we need to clean up the machine in time.

Situation 2: When production scale and extraction capacity are moderate, cost savings can be achieved by using the same machine in the pretreatment phase.

The machine needed for extracting sunflower seed oil is: vibrating screen - stone removing machine - magnetic separator - sheller - kernel shell separation screen - rolling embryo machine - steam frying pan - oil extraction machine - filter - crude oil tank

The machine needed for soybean oil extraction are: vibrating screen - stone machine - magnetic separator - shell peeling machine - softening pot - rolling embryo machine - steam frying pan - oil extraction machine - filter - crude oil tank. We can conclude that the machine in the pretreatment stage can be shared, but the machine in the crushing stage needs to be configured separately. Therefore, we recommend that the machine can be shared: vibrating screen - stone machine - magnetic separator.

Situation 3: When the production scale and extraction capacity are large, it makes sense to use different machine to produce soybean oil and sunflower oil.

If you have more than 100tpd of production capacity, and you start your business to make more money. Faced with this situation, we need to know what the process of sunflower seed and soybean production line is, what machine will be used, and then decide whether we need to purchase some machine separately to meet different oil seed production needs.
