Cooker / Cooking  Vessel :

Brief Outstanding Features
Cookers / Heating Kettles are used for proper heating and conditioning of the oil seeds prior to expelling.Controlled
heat and moisture open up the oil bearing cells for maximum oil yield.

Construction
These Cookers are all steel fabricated with steam heated jackets for each compartment. These jackets are suitably welded with studs and hydraulically tested before assembly. All compartments except the top one are provided with hinged doors for easy access.

Heating
Steam jackets are indirectly heated by steam and cookers are complete with necessary fittings i.e. valves, pressure gauges, relief valves, steam traps and thermometer. Bottom stage insulation of the Cookers avoids unnecessary heat losses. Insulation can be provided at extra cost.

Moisture Addition
Open steam spray is provided for bottom compartment of smaller cookers and for other sizes at the top and bottom compartments.

Control
Seed temperature, retention time in each stage, moisture content and depth are easily controlled.

Drive
The vertical shaft carries biparted agitators for each compartment and is driven from an independent electric motor through V-Belt and vertical cooled worm type speed reduction gear box.

Steam Consumption
Higher figures are for starting up and the lower figures are for steady running.

• Gear Box : Double reduction Gear box
• Kettle / Cooker : Multi stage cooker for the conditioning of seeds,
  size 42″ Diameter
• Compressing : Crammer Shaft gives extra Cramming of the seed or cake in the Feed
• Chamber:Vertical Hinged and can very easily be opened for replacement of worms
  or cage bars. This saves a lot of time and labour.
• Steel Fabricated Chamber: Reduces time and labour for relining of Cage Bars.
• Bearings : Heavy duty Ball and Roller bearings are fitted for maximum life and low noise operation
• Shaft Withdrawal : The main Worm Shaft can be withdrawn very easily without disturbing the gear
  section in any way. Pressing worms and collars can be changed without disturbing the main shaft. The thrust
  of the pressure worms is taken upon large spherical roller thrust bearings.
• Cast Iron Bodies : For perfect alignment and stability.
• Easy to install, high yield at low operating cost, capable of extracting oil from all known oil seeds.
• Reduced internal wear and tear

Vertical Hinged 34” Three-section Pressing Box.
Entirely eliminates the difficult task of removing box for relining or for replacement of worms, which saves a lot of time and labour.

Steel Casted Chambers
Reduces time and labour for relining of Cage Bars.

Shaft Withdrawal
The main Worm Shaft can be withdrawn very easily without disturbing the gear section in any way and pressure worms and spacing collars can be changed without disturbing the shaft. The thrust of the pressure worm is taken upon a large thrust bearing.

Pressure Cone
The final pressure of the cake is positively controlled by a Pressure Cone which is hard faced.

Cake at Discharge
The cake thickness is controlled by a manually operated hand-wheel which is so simple that the choke gear is independent of the main drive and there is no possibility of a sudden load being placed on expeller motor.

Compressor
The Expeller feed is under automatic control and the seed or meal when entering the Expeller is given a preliminary compression by a small crammer-shaft driven by an automatically tensioned belt which stops when feed is excessive, starting again when the accumulation of feed has been absorbed by the Expeller.

Power
Oil Expeller is 15HP/20HP and for Cooker 3HP.

Gear Box & Lubrication
A double helical gear unit made from most suitable special steel running in oil bath. All shafts run on antifriction bearings. The drive housing is oil tight and dust proof, totally enclosed design and is fitted with two oil level indicators.

Kettle / Cooker
The Steam Kettle is of adequate capacity with 42” dia. two high steam jackets fitted with self controlled mean inlet to prevent overflowing with open steam spray arrangement, safety valve, steam pressure gauge, steam traps and steam valves. The Kettle requires 40-55 kgs. process steam per hour at a pressure of 4-5 kg/cm2.

Capacity
The capacity, however, varies with the material and working conditions. The average capacity is 8/10 tons in first pressing and 5/6 tons in second pressing.
