Why the ZY24 (202-3) Screw Press Oil Extractor Is a Game-Changer for Small & Medium-Sized Edible Oil Plants

In today’s competitive edible oil market, small and medium-sized producers face a critical challenge: how to efficiently process multiple oilseed types—like rapeseed, peanuts, sunflower seeds, and cottonseed—without investing in separate, specialized equipment. That’s where the ZY24 (202-3) Screw Press Oil Extractor shines. With its proven versatility and smart engineering, this machine has become a top choice across Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, and Latin America.

Multi-Oilseed Compatibility: From Peanuts to Rapeseed

The ZY24 (202-3) is engineered to handle a wide range of oilseeds with minimal setup changes:

Real-world data from a Vietnamese peanut processor shows that switching from a single-seed press to the ZY24 increased their monthly output by 35%, while reducing labor costs per ton by 22% due to fewer manual adjustments needed between batches.

Two Modes, One Machine: Flexibility That Pays Off

The ZY24 supports two key operational modes:

• Single Solvent Extraction + Pressing: Ideal for high-fat seeds like cottonseed or soybeans, offering up to 90% oil recovery rate when combined with proper solvent recycling systems.
• Double Pressing (Pre-Press + Secondary): Perfect for low-to-medium oil content seeds such as rapeseed or sunflower, boosting total yield by up to 15% compared to single-stage pressing alone.

This dual-mode capability allows users to tailor operations based on raw material availability, seasonal demand shifts, or even local regulatory requirements—especially important in markets like India or Brazil where crop cycles vary significantly.

Cost Efficiency Through Shared Infrastructure

One major benefit often overlooked is the reduction in capital expenditure. A case study from a Romanian oil mill revealed that replacing three dedicated presses with one ZY24 unit saved over €18,000 in initial investment and reduced floor space usage by 40%. The same facility reported a 27% decrease in maintenance downtime thanks to fewer moving parts and standardized spare parts across all oilseed types.

What Our Clients Say

“We used to run three different machines for peanuts, sunflowers, and rapeseed. Now with ZY24, we can switch within 1 hour—and our team doesn’t need special training for each seed type.” – Maria Lopez, Operations Manager, Argentina-based AgroLabs S.A.

Another client in Turkey saw a 20% improvement in oil quality consistency after adopting the secondary pressing mode for their rapeseed batch, leading to higher premiums from food manufacturers who require consistent FFA levels below 0.5%.

Ready to Scale Smarter?

If you're running a small-to-mid-scale oil plant looking to diversify your product portfolio without blowing your budget, the ZY24 (202-3) offers real-world performance backed by measurable ROI. Whether it's optimizing yields, minimizing waste, or adapting quickly to market trends—it’s built for flexibility, not just function.
