Capacity and Oil Recovery
Does 20 kg/hour mean 20 kilograms of oil per hour?
Direct Answer
No. An oil press's kg/hour rating commonly describes the seed or raw material it can process. Oil output depends on the material's oil content and the proportion the machine recovers.
Detailed Engineering Analysis
Ask the supplier to state seed input, crude oil, filtered oil and cake separately. For an illustrative batch, 20 kg of seed yielding 30% saleable oil by weight would produce 6 kg of oil, not 20 kg. The 30% assumption is a calculation example, not a guarantee for an MMEC machine or a particular seed. If a product page uses the word output without defining it, get written clarification before sizing your business.
