  • Why is threshing important in the palm oil milling process?
  • Threshing is a crucial step in the palm oil milling process, where oil palm fruit bunches are processed to separate the oil-bearing parts from the rest of the bunch. The performance of the thresher significantly impacts the efficiency and quality of the oil extraction process.
  • What is the palm oil milling process?
  • The palm fruit receive the palm oil mill as fruit bunch which is embedded with many small individual fruits. In the threshing station of palm oil mill, the individual fruits will be detached from the bunch by use of FFBs thresher/stripper. Rotating drum and fixed drum are the two main threshing machine applied in palm oil milling process.
  • What is palm oil winning process?
  • The oil winning process, in summary, involves the reception of fresh fruit bunches from the plantations, sterilizing and threshing of the bunches to free the palm fruit, mashing the fruit and pressing out the crude palm oil. The crude oil is further treated to purify and dry it for storage and export.
  • How is palm oil produced?
  • We have 4 principal palm oil production methods which are the traditional methods, small-scale mechanical units (processing units handling up to 2 tonnes of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) per hour), medium-scale mills (3 to 8 tonnes FFB per hour) and large industrial mills (3 and 8 tonnes FFB per hour).
  • Is a palm bunch threshing machine efficient?
  • Therefore, it is very important to have an efficient small threshing machine. This paper depicts the design of a palm bunch threshing machine which requires less human effort and very efficient.
  • Can palm fruit threshing be mechanized using a locally fabricated machine?
  • The shelling efficiency and the throughput capacity was found to increase from 58.3 to 92.2% and 517.1 to 769.3 kg/hr. respectively, as the sterilization time increased from 10 to 30 minutes. Conclusion: The results of these experiments showed that palm fruit threshing can be mechanized using a locally fabricated machine.
