Cooker — 50-500 TPD
Cookers provide intensive thermal treatment (20-40 min residence) for seeds requiring more preparation than standard conditioning. Denatures proteins, breaks down cell walls, and inactivates enzymes for improved oil extraction from high-protein or hard-structured seeds.
Models & Configurations
- Multi-stage design: Separate heating, cooking, and tempering stages
- Capacity-sized units: Configured for lines from 50 to 500 TPD
- Heating arrangement: Steam injection plus indirect heating

Frequently Asked Questions
What capacity range do your cookers cover?
Lines from 50 to 500 TPD, with multi-stage heating, cooking, and tempering at 60-70°C over a 20-40 minute residence time.
What does cooking do that conditioning does not?
The longer, staged treatment denatures proteins and ruptures oil cells more completely than standard conditioning — which is what higher-protein feedstocks like soybean often need for maximum oil recovery.
Is the cooker customised to my requirement?
Yes. Every machine we build is custom-engineered — capacity, dimensions, and configuration are matched to your line. Send your requirement via the enquiry form or call +91 91091 02280 for a firm quote.
