Commercial oil producers often need to improve not only pressing capacity but also the handling of crude oil after extraction. The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine is designed for this type of production environment by integrating screw pressing, electric heating, and dual vacuum filtration into one heavy-duty system.
According to the current product information, the 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press has a listed capacity of 300–350 kg/h, a 30 kW/380 V power configuration, dimensions of approximately 2600 × 1800 × 1800 mm, and a machine weight of about 1700 kg. These characteristics place it in a substantially higher production category than compact combined oil presses.
What Is the 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press?
The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine is a heavy-duty integrated oil processing machine. It combines a continuous screw oil press with electric heating and a dual vacuum filtration system.
The purpose of this configuration is to reduce the number of separate machines required between raw seed feeding and crude oil filtration. It is designed for commercial oil mills and processing centers where production volume and oil cleanliness are important.

Product Advantages
Designed for Commercial Throughput
With a listed capacity of 300–350 kg/h, the 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine is intended for businesses that need considerably more production than a household or mini oil workshop.
This capacity can be useful for commercial producers processing several hundred kilograms of oilseeds during a normal working day.
Pressing, Heating, and Filtration in One System
The machine combines three important stages of oil processing: screw pressing, electric heating, and vacuum filtration.
This integrated arrangement can simplify the production layout and reduce the need to transfer freshly pressed crude oil between multiple separate machines.
Strip-Bar Pressing Cage
The strip-bar pressing cage is designed to improve oil flow, reduce resistance and help limit clogging during operation. It also supports heat distribution around the pressing chamber.
This design is particularly useful when the machine is expected to operate continuously with large quantities of raw material.
Dual Vacuum Filtration
Instead of relying on a single filtration tank, the 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine uses a dual vacuum filtration system. The filtration process is designed to remove suspended solids, moisture, and other impurities from freshly pressed oil.
Cleaner crude oil can then be transferred to storage or further refining equipment.
Reinforced Construction
The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine is designed with a reinforced gearbox, wear-resistant shaft, and thick steel frame. These components are intended to support long-term operation in commercial oil processing environments.
Suitable Raw Materials
The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine can process a wide range of oilseeds, including:
- Soybeans
- Peanuts
- Sunflower seeds
- Rapeseed or canola
- Grated coconut
- Mustard seeds
- Palm kernels after crushing and suitable pretreatment
The machine supports both hot and cold pressing methods depending on the raw material and desired oil characteristics.
For harder materials such as palm kernel, appropriate crushing and pretreatment should be completed before pressing.
Working Principle
Prepared oilseeds enter the hopper and are transported through the strip-bar pressing cage by a rotating screw shaft. As the material moves forward, the available space becomes smaller and mechanical pressure increases.
The pressure separates oil from the seed material. The extracted oil flows out of the pressing chamber and enters the filtration system, while the solid residue exits through the cake outlet.
The electric heating system can be used to establish appropriate pressing conditions before or during operation.
After pressing, the crude oil enters the dual vacuum filtration system. Vacuum filtration helps separate suspended solids and moisture, producing cleaner oil for storage or further processing.
Why Combine Pressing and Filtration?
Freshly pressed crude oil normally contains fine particles from the raw material. If these particles remain in the oil, sediment can form during storage.
Integrating filtration directly into the oil press system allows the producer to address this stage immediately after extraction. This can make the production workflow more organized and reduce the need for separate crude-oil handling equipment.
For commercial oil mills, reducing unnecessary transfers can also help keep the processing area cleaner and easier to manage.
Commercial Applications
The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine is particularly suitable for:
- Commercial oil mills
- Medium-scale edible oil factories
- Agricultural processing centers
- Multi-seed oil processing businesses
- Commercial peanut oil production
- Soybean oil processing
- Sunflower oil production
- Rapeseed oil production
Because it can process different oilseeds, the machine can be used in regions where raw material availability changes according to season.
Building a Larger Oil Processing Line
The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine can serve as the central pressing and primary filtration unit in a larger oil production process.
A typical configuration can be arranged as:
Seed Cleaning → Seed Preparation → 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press → Vacuum Filtration → Oil Storage → Refining or Filling
If the final product is refined edible oil, additional refining equipment can be installed after filtration. For cold-pressed specialty oils, the downstream process can be configured according to the required product characteristics.
How to Get Better Results from the 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine?
The capacity of the machine is only one part of successful oil production. Proper raw material preparation is equally important.
Seeds should be cleaned before entering the press, and moisture should be controlled according to the specific crop. Operators should also establish suitable heating and pressing conditions for each raw material.
When processing several types of oilseeds, it is useful to test each material separately before establishing standard production settings.
6YL-168 Compared with Compact Combined Oil Presses
The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine is designed for a different production level from small combined oil presses such as the 6YL-30 or 6YL-75.
The smaller models focus on compact installation and small-scale production, while the 6YL-168 emphasizes higher throughput, reinforced construction, and dual vacuum filtration. This makes the 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine more appropriate for commercial oil mills that need to process several hundred kilograms of raw material per hour.
Conclusion
The 6YL-168 Combined Oil Press Machine is a heavy-duty integrated solution for commercial oil extraction. With a listed capacity of 300–350 kg/h, 30 kW/380 V configuration, strip-bar pressing cage, electric heating, and dual vacuum filtration, it combines several important stages of oil processing into one system. Its wide raw-material compatibility and reinforced structure make it suitable for commercial oil mills and agricultural processing centers that need higher-capacity oil pressing with integrated crude-oil filtration.
