Technical Specifications & Performance Data This complete
continuous-cycle olive oil mill is engineered for efficient,
high-throughput extraction with integrated handling, crushing,
malaxing, separation, and decantation. Manufactured by AMENDUNI, it
provides a robust platform for second hand industrial packaging and
food processing environments, supporting seamless integration with
downstream bottling and industrial packaging operations for edible
oils. Operating mode: Continuous-cycle olive oil extraction line
Manufacturer: AMENDUNI Year: 1987 Throughput: Up to 20 quintals per
hour (approx. 2,000 kg/h) Included equipment: olives conveyor, leaf
remover, stainless steel hopper, screw conveyors, hammer crusher, 4
stainless steel malaxers, 2 paste pumps, 2 decanter centrifuges,
pomace screw conveyor, 4 stainless steel decantation tanks,
separators, complete electrical panel, pomace-fired boiler
Construction: Stainless steel on key product-contact units (malaxers,
hopper, decantation tanks) Use case: Olive oil extraction and
clarification prior to bottling/packaging Advanced Automation &
Control Systems The line includes a complete electrical panel designed
for centralized control of core processes such as crushing, malaxing,
paste transfer, decanting, and separation. The control architecture
supports safe equipment interlocks and coordinated start/stop
sequences across devices, improving uptime and process consistency.
Temperature control of malaxers, motor protection, and emergency
circuits are managed through the main panel for dependable production.
Quick access to drives and instrumentation simplifies routine checks
and adjustments during campaign operations. Production Line
Integration Capabilities As a processing backbone for olive oil
production, this used bottling line precursor integrates easily
upstream with fruit reception and washing systems and downstream with
filtration, storage, and beverage production or edible oil packaging
machinery. The modular approach allows flexible layout with conveyors
and screw feeders connecting each stage. The system can feed to
filling and labeling solutions in industrial packaging environments,
enabling a complete production line from raw olives to finished,
packaged oil. Inline or semi-standalone operation for each processing
stage Screw conveyors and pumps provide steady, controlled transfers
between units Layout adaptability for different plant footprints and
tank farms Suitable for edible oil processing workflows leading to
bottling and labeling stations Machine Condition & Maintenance History
The installation is complete and reported as functional, with all
major components included. It is currently stopped, offering a solid
candidate for recommissioning. The comprehensive equipment list
reduces the need for sourcing auxiliary machines and supports a
coordinated restart plan. Operational Performance & Versatility
Designed for continuous processing, the line stabilizes paste quality
via controlled malaxing and efficient phase separation with decanter
centrifuges and final polishing through separators. The multi-stage
configuration helps achieve consistent yield and clarity across
different olive varieties and harvest conditions. Stainless steel
product-contact components support hygienic processing and easy
cleaning, while the integrated boiler supplies the required process
heat for optimal malaxation and viscosity control. Stable throughput
up to 20 q/h for medium-scale production Multiple malaxers for
residence time management and flexibility Decanter centrifuges for
primary separation and high recovery Final separation stage to enhance
product quality Installation Requirements & Site Preparation The line
is designed for industrial settings with appropriate utilities and
floor space for processing, transfers, and tank placement. A boiler is
included for process heat. Allocate space for maintenance access
around malaxers, centrifuges, and the electrical panel. Utilities
typically include electrical power, process heat from the boiler, and
water for sanitation and cleaning-in-place routines as defined by
plant SOPs. Structural support and anchoring points for rotating
equipment (crusher, centrifuges) are recommended to minimize
vibration. Safety Standards & Compliance Certification Safety
provisions include centralized emergency stop via the electrical panel
and protective enclosures around rotating and moving parts, consistent
with industrial practice for processing machinery of this class.
Stainless steel construction on key product-contact equipment supports
hygienic operation in food environments. Operators should follow plant
safety procedures, lock-out/tag-out routines, and routine inspections
of guards, interlocks, and wiring to maintain compliance with
applicable regulations.
