Essential Oil Cold Press Machine
Most of the citrus essential oils are not resistant to the heat of distillation and will destroy its essence during the extraction process. To ensure the quality of citrus essential oil, our essential oil extractor adopts cold-pressing method. It applies to different citrus fruits like oranges, navel oranges, lemons and grapefruits. The essential oil is mainly from citrus peel.After essential oil extraction, they can still be fed into the orange juice production line to make juice.
- Material: 304 stainless steel
- Extraction way: cold press, ALFA technology
- Capacity: 3-10 t/h
- Application: For pure essential oil extraction of citrus fruit like oranges, navel oranges, lemonsand grapefruits.
- High automation,high extraction rate and low cost.
- Linear type design, easy to install, operate and maintain.
- All the parts connecting with fruits are made of high quality stainless steel.
- It can work both independently or together with other fruit processing equipment.
For ensuring the essential oil quality, the whole process is: citrus fruit sorting&clean→essential oil extraction&separation→essential oil refining→essential oil packing&storage.
The key parts, that is, essential oil extraction is finished by our machine. After cleaning, the citrus fruits are conveyed into the essential oil extractor machine by feed scrapers. Then the rotating needle roller pricks the oil vacuoles on the fruit skin to extract oil. Finally, a water prayer washes the oil on citrus surface into a collector. After that, the water and citrus oil are separated by a separator.
