Not every oil processing business needs a high-capacity industrial machine. For farmers, rural entrepreneurs and small oil workshops, a compact oil press can be more practical because it requires less workshop space and can reduce the initial equipment investment. The YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine is designed as a compact screw oil expeller for household use, small farms and rural oil production. The current OilPressStore page lists a capacity of approximately 4.5–5 tons/day, an 11 kW motor and a 380 V configuration.
What Is the YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine?
The YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine is a screw-type oil extraction machine. It works by continuously compressing oil-bearing materials inside a pressing chamber. The screw shaft transports the seeds forward while pressure increases. Oil flows through the pressing gaps and the remaining material exits as cake.

The actual output depends on the raw material and operating conditions.
Suitable Raw Materials
The YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine can process:
- Soybeans
- Peanuts
- Sunflower seeds
- Rapeseed
- Mustard seeds
- Coconut
- Sesame
- Flaxseed
Different raw materials require different preparation and pressing conditions.
Why Choose a Compact Oil Press?
1. Suitable for Small Businesses
The YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine is designed for smaller production operations rather than large industrial oil factories.
2. Flexible Application
It can process several common oilseeds.
3. Simple Screw Pressing
The working principle is straightforward and easy to understand.
4. Suitable for Rural Production
The machine can serve farms, cooperatives and local oil workshops.
5. Lower Space Requirement
Compared with large industrial equipment, a compact press is easier to integrate into a small workshop.
YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine for Farmers
Farmers who grow oil crops may want to add value to their harvest instead of selling raw seeds. A small oil processing operation can turn locally produced peanuts, soybeans, sunflower seeds or rapeseed into edible oil. The resulting oil cake can potentially be used as a by-product depending on the raw material and local regulations.
Basic Production Process
A simple workflow is:
Oilseed Cleaning → Preparation → YZYX-10 Pressing → Filtration → Oil Storage
The actual process can be expanded with crushers, seed cleaners, filters and storage tanks.
How to Improve Oil Yield?
Even a good oil press cannot compensate for poor raw material preparation.
Operators should:
1. Clean the seeds thoroughly.
2. Maintain suitable moisture.
3. Use appropriate heating when required.
4. Maintain stable feeding.
5. Adjust pressing conditions according to the crop.
6. Keep the machine clean.
7. Inspect wear parts regularly.
Cold and Hot Pressing
The YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine can support hot or cold pressing depending on the raw material and oil quality requirements. Cold pressing may be preferred for certain specialty oils, while controlled heating can improve extraction for some seeds. The processing method should always be selected according to the intended final product.
Conclusion
The YZYX-10 Oil Press Machine is a compact screw expeller designed for small farms, rural oil workshops and entry-level commercial oil production. With approximately 4.5–5 tons/day capacity and an 11 kW motor, it provides a practical option for businesses processing soybeans, peanuts, sunflower seeds, rapeseed and other suitable oil-bearing materials.
