The client's immediate requirement was palm oil screw press machines. Understanding the specific needs of a project destined for the Congolese market, our sales team promptly arranged comprehensive product demonstrations, sharing multiple running videos of the double screw palm oil press machines. These videos showcased the equipment's smooth operation, robust build quality, and key engineering details that the client wanted to verify before making a decision.
Impressed by the demonstrations, the client decided to visit Glory Oiltech's manufacturing facility in person. During the factory visit, the client conducted a thorough inspection of the production workshop, examined raw materials and core components, and engaged in detailed technical discussions with the engineering team. This was followed by extensive email correspondence covering various technical specifications of the oil press machines — including processing capacity, power consumption, screw design, hydraulic system parameters, and after-sales support arrangements.

The double screw structure generates large and continuous pressing force through the meshing action of two counter-rotating screws. Combined with a unique blade design that ensures thorough material handling, this configuration delivers consistently high oil extraction efficiency. The hydraulic system, equipped with a 100 MPa hydraulic pump and DCV directional control valves plus solenoid valves for precise pressure control, allows real-time pressure monitoring and automatic adjustment — ensuring stable operation and optimal oil yield across varying feed conditions.
Key components including the pressing screws are cast from 2Cr13 wear-resistant alloy steel, providing extended service life even under continuous high-load operation. The hard tooth surface reducer ensures smooth power transmission and low maintenance requirements.

The client specifically requested screw press technology after researching various oil extraction methods. The double screw palm oil press machines manufactured by Glory Oiltech (Henan Glory) have seen extensive deployment in Southeast Asia and Africa. We provide full documented performance data that clients can review with operation videos and on-site factory visits. The ability to visually verify equipment operation before purchase was a decisive factor.
From the initial inquiry on May 15 to the final order confirmation, our team maintained responsive and detailed technical communication through multiple rounds of email exchanges. The sales and engineering teams addressed every technical question — from screw geometry and hydraulic specifications to installation requirements and spare parts availability — building the client's confidence in both the product and the supplier.
Double screw palm oil press machine
Our company operates its own manufacturing facility with full-process production capabilities covering material cutting, welding, assembly, and final inspection. Key electrical components are sourced from recognized international brands such as Siemens PLC and ABB inverters, ensuring reliability and consistency.
With a local branch and overseas warehouse in Nigeria (Ogun State), our team provides service support closer to African project sites. This local presence enables faster response times for installation guidance, spare parts supply, and technical support — an important consideration for a project destined for the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The double screw design generates higher and more consistent pressing pressure through the meshing action of two counter-rotating screws. This results in lower residual oil rates (6%–7%) compared to many single screw alternatives, meaning more oil extracted per ton of raw material. The dual-screw configuration also provides better material conveyance and reduced blockage risk, ensuring more stable continuous operation.
Yes. Glory Oiltech provides comprehensive project support including equipment manufacturing, export documentation, and installation guidance. With an existing branch and warehouse in Nigeria, the local team can coordinate technical dispatch and spare parts supply for projects throughout the Central African region, including the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The 1TPH double screw palm oil press machine is specifically designed for processing fresh palm fruits (fresh fruit bunches) to extract crude palm oil.
