The Crushing unit is screw and chamber like expeller , but it rotates at low speed like 60 rpm in order not to heat the oil. During normal operation, the Oil temperature is within 25 degrees of Room temp as stipulated for Cold Pressed oIls. Once oil is extracted by squeezing , the cake which is solid , is heated with a heater to pump it out. There is a cake cutter in order reduce the storage space for cake. Cake temperature is upto 210 degC.
The hopper capacity is approx 1kg. The machine can crush upto 5 kg per hour depending of the seeds. In Case of Copra it will feed slower due to sticky soft nature of Copra.
The Electronics of the machine announces the prompting for user friendliness. The language is normally english / Hindi , factory settable. Field selectable between Hindi and english by changing a jumper in the PCBA of teh machine at the service centre. . Machine PCBA has inbuilt overload protection and protection to switch off if the fan fails and thereby the plastic heats above 80 deg C, the machine is switched off. Further if the swivel casing is lifted , the machine switches off to ensure safety.
Normally service is not required if the machine is cleaned after every use. It is advisable to remove screw and chaber when they are hot with the gloves and separate them and brush it with the brush supplied with the machine.Cleaning improves hygiene before next use.
OPERATION:
The operation involves Choosing the temperature and it takes about 3-4 minutes to heat the cake chamber. Initially machine clears itself by reversing and then starts forwarding , feed a handful at this time and once the cake and oil comes out normally, fill the hopper. The Oil slots in the chamber from where the cold pressed oil is coming out has be cleaned with brush frequently, say once in 30 minutes. For manually reversing the machine press Pause function button twice.
It is important to have dry seeds to have trouble free operation. When the moisture is in seeds, it makes it like a paste and blocks the oil passge. It solidifies in the screw tip, especially in rainly and moist days. Drying seeds in air fryer or oven at 100 deg C for 5 minutes helps to remove most of the moisture and some amount of moisture is required to be in the seeds.
The shelf life of the oil produced is less than 2 months and hence do not make it for more than 1-2 months. Seed can be stored safely instead of oil, now that you have the machine at your disposal.
