For many small palm plantation owners, agricultural cooperatives and startup investors, choosing the right palm oil processing equipment is one of the most important decisions when entering the palm oil business. The most common questions include: What equipment is included? How much does it cost? How many workers are needed? How much space is required?
To help investors start palm oil production with lower investment and lower operational risks, Henan Glory has developed an economical 1TPH small scale palm oil processing line. This installation-free palm oil production line is specially designed for small and medium-sized investors who need a complete turnkey solution with reliable performance, compact structure, low operating cost and professional technical support.
The complete palm oil production process follows a proven workflow:
Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) → Sterilization → Threshing → Digestion → Pressing → Oil Clarification and Filtration → Vacuum Drying → Crude Palm Oil Storage
This process helps maximize oil extraction efficiency while maintaining stable oil quality.

This turnkey palm oil processing plant includes all equipment required to convert fresh fruit bunches (FFB) into qualified crude palm oil.
Sterilization Section
- Palm fruit sterilization tanks
- Hot water tank
- Steam heating system
The sterilization process deactivates lipase enzymes, reduces free fatty acid (FFA) formation, softens palm fruits and prepares them for efficient processing.
Threshing Section
- Palm fruit thresher
The drum-type thresher separates palm fruits from empty fruit bunches (EFB) with a threshing rate of up to 99%, minimizing fruit loss and improving processing efficiency.
Pressing Section
- Double screw palm oil press
The double screw palm oil press efficiently extracts crude palm oil and protects palm kernels from excessive breakage.
Oil Clarification and Filtration Section
- Oil clarification tank
- Vibrating screen
- Plate filter press
This section removes fiber, sludge and impurities from crude palm oil to improve cleanliness and quality.
Vacuum Drying Section
- Vacuum drying system
The vacuum drying process reduces moisture content and improves oil storage stability.
Supporting Systems
- Electric control cabinet
- Operating platforms
- Pipes and valves
- Cables
- Installation accessories
Users only need to prepare power supply and oil storage tanks before production can begin.

Installation-Free Modular Design
One of the biggest advantages of this palm oil processing line is its installation-free modular structure.
The complete line is divided into three integrated modules:
- Sterilization module
- Threshing and pressing module
- Filtration and drying module
Most assembly work is completed before shipment. This significantly reduces installation time and minimizes dependence on professional technicians.
For customers in Africa, Southeast Asia and other palm-growing regions, this design helps shorten project implementation time and reduce installation costs.

Convenient Transportation
The entire line can be shipped in only three high-cube containers, reducing transportation costs and simplifying logistics management.
Compact Workshop Requirement
The recommended workshop size is:
- Length: 12 m
- Width: 12 m
- Height: 8 m
The compact layout minimizes land occupation and civil construction costs.
One of the key advantages of this small scale palm oil processing plant is its low operating cost.
Power Consumption
- Total installed power: 53.2 kW
The energy-efficient design makes the line suitable for regions with unstable or limited power supply.
Labor Requirement
- Daily operators required: 4–5 workers
The operation process is simple and easy to learn, helping reduce long-term labor costs.
Flexible Heating Method
The sterilization system supports biomass fuel heating.
Users can utilize locally available low-cost fuels such as:
- Palm fiber
- Palm kernel shells
- Wood chips
- Agricultural waste
This significantly lowers fuel expenses and improves project profitability.

Although it is an economical palm oil processing line, its performance fully meets industrial production requirements.
High Oil Yield
The double screw palm oil press adopts hydraulic automatic pressure adjustment technology, ensuring stable pressing performance and high oil extraction efficiency.
Effective FFA Control
Free fatty acid (FFA) content is one of the most important indicators of palm oil quality.
Fresh fruit bunches should ideally be processed within 24 hours after harvesting to avoid rapid FFA increase.
The sterilization process quickly deactivates lipase enzymes and helps maintain low FFA levels, resulting in higher-quality crude palm oil.
Low Moisture Content
After clarification, filtration and vacuum drying, the final palm oil moisture content can be reduced to ≤0.2%.
This helps improve storage stability and extends shelf life to approximately six months under suitable storage conditions.
| Item | Specification |
| Processing Capacity | 1 Ton Fresh Fruit Per Hour |
| Product | Crude Palm Oil (CPO) |
| Threshing Rate | Up to 99% |
| Press Type | Screw Press |
| Installed Power | 53.2 kW |
| Workshop Size | 12m × 12m × 8m |
| Labor Requirement | 4–5 Workers |
| Heating Method | Biomass Fuel Heating |
| Moisture Content of Final Oil | ≤0.2% |
| Container Requirement | 3 High Cube Containers |
One of the main reasons investors choose this small scale palm oil processing plant is its attractive investment cost.
The complete turnkey 1TPH palm oil processing line is typically priced:
USD 148,000 (This price is FOB China. Shipping cost, import duties, and local taxes are not included and will vary by destination.)
The final quotation may vary depending on:
- Destination country
- Voltage requirements
- Shipping cost
- Optional equipment configuration
- Local project requirements
Compared with larger industrial palm oil mill plants, this solution offers a much lower investment threshold while maintaining professional production performance.
Q1: What fuel can be used for the sterilization system?
A: The sterilization system supports biomass fuel heating and can utilize palm fiber, palm kernel shells, wood chips and other agricultural waste as fuel.
Q2: Is the double screw palm oil press better than a single screw press?
A: For commercial production, the double screw palm oil press generally provides higher oil extraction efficiency, more stable operation and better protection of palm kernels. The hydraulic automatic pressure system also reduces the need for manual adjustment.
Q3: How long does delivery take after order confirmation?
A: Typical delivery time is 30–45 days after payment confirmation, depending on production schedule and shipping arrangements.
Q4: Can I start with a smaller capacity and upgrade later?
A: Yes. Many investors start with a smaller palm oil processing machine and add sterilization, filtration and other equipment over time as their plantation and production volume grow.
