General oil seeds

  • soybean oilseed
  •  peanut oilseed
  • sunflower oilseed
  •  corn germ
  • sesame oil seed
  • canola oil seed

  • palm oil

Features of husking machine/dehulling machine/shelling machine:

husking machine1. Reasonable structure
2. Stable performance
3. Easy to operate and maintain
4. High efficiency and energy saving

What husking machine/dehulling machine/shelling machine can do?

1. Improving oil yield. If we don't remove low-oil-content shells , they will absorb the oil out from the kernels during pressing or prepressing section.
2. Improving the quality of crude oil and meal. For example, husking/dehulling/shelling process reduces colors, acid value, waxiness etc, especially for the cakes quality, at the meanwhile, the various antinutritional factors in the shells are removed, it can improving the cakes feeding value and edible value.
3. Reducing the damage of follow-up machines, like crushing machine , flaking machine, oil press, extending the machines' service life.
4. Effectively increasing the follow-up machines handling capacities and lowering the power consumption.


Generally, each oil seed has different requirement after husking machine/dehulling machine/ shelling machine:

oil seeds cotton seed peanut kernel sunflower seed
Shell content in kernels ≤ 10% 1% 10%
Kernel content in shells ≤ 0.5% 0.5% 1%

In general, husking machine/dehulling machine/shelling machine is needed for oil seeds whose shell content exceeds 20%, such as cotton seed, peanut, sunflower seed, etc.

However, different oil seeds have different processing method and we can help you design specialized processing line according to your material, if you want to know more about oil processing plant, please feel free to contact us.
