ALFA LAVAL

Used ALFA LAVAL oil production lineTechnical Specifications & Performance DataThis complete olive oil processing line is engineered for continuous production with a throughput of 2 tons per hour. Built around proven Alfa Laval technology, the line combines robust mechanical design with food-grade materials to ensure reliable operation and consistent oil quality. Its modular configuration streamlines the core olive oil extraction steps from washing and preparation through malaxation and separation.Overall capacity: 2 tons/hourDecanter centrifuge: Alfa Laval NX 17Disc separators: Alfa Laval 407, automatic (2 units)Malaxers (double): Stainless steel (3 units)Malaxer (small): Stainless steel, with paste pump P 60 (1 unit)Crusher: Stainless steelOlive elevator: Integrated feedingOlive washer: Pre-cleaning and debris removalElectrical control panel: Alfa LavalConveying: Various screw conveyors for paste and by-productsThe equipment list emphasizes sanitary stainless-steel construction, automated separation, and balanced material handling to minimize oxidation, protect product integrity, and support high-efficiency operation.Advanced Automation & Control SystemsAutomation centers on an electrical control panel that coordinates key process units for safe, consistent performance. Automated Alfa Laval 407 disc separators provide steady clarification with reduced manual intervention. Interlocks and standard operator safeguards support secure running and streamlined start/stop routines. The configuration is designed for straightforward parameter control, facilitating repeatable results across production shifts.Production Line Integration CapabilitiesThe line is configured for seamless integration from raw olive reception to downstream storage tanks and final packaging. Its modular equipment layout connects via screw conveyors, an olive elevator, and a washer, enabling continuous flow into the crusher, malaxers, decanter, and separators. This processing core can be paired with industrial packaging solutions or a used bottling line for vegetable oil filling into PET or glass containers, aligning with broader beverage production and food-oil packing environments.Machine type/categoryManufacturer / ModelYearOlive Washer—Olive Elevator—Olive CrusherStainless steelMalaxers (double)Stainless steelMalaxer (small) with paste pumpAlfa Laval / P 60 (pump)Decanter CentrifugeAlfa Laval / NX 17Disc Separators (automatic)Alfa Laval / 407Screw Conveyors—Electrical Control PanelAlfa LavalMachine Condition & Maintenance HistoryThe equipment is described for sale and presented as ready for operation, suitable for immediate integration into an existing facility or upgrade projects. Routine maintenance practices for centrifugal separation and hygienic handling are recommended to sustain throughput and product quality over long production cycles.Operational Performance & VersatilityThis processing line consolidates the critical stages of olive oil production: washing, elevating, crushing, malaxation, decanting, and final separation/clarification. The Alfa Laval NX 17 decanter and 407 automatic disc separators assure dependable phase separation with stable performance. Stainless-steel malaxers promote consistent paste conditioning prior to decanting, while the screw conveyors and elevator maintain continuous, gentle product transfer. The system suits producers aiming to scale output, standardize results, and interface efficiently with downstream storage and packaging operations in industrial packaging environments.Installation Requirements & Site PreparationThe line is floor-standing and requires adequate production space for safe access around the washer, malaxers, decanter, separators, conveyors, and control panel. Standard utilities include electrical power, process water for washing, and appropriate drainage. Site layout should consider ergonomic material flows from raw olive intake to oil storage and onward to packaging. Proper ventilation and hygienic floors/walls are recommended for food-grade operations.Safety Standards & Compliance CertificationThe line features conventional operator protections typical of food-processing equipment, including guarded rotating parts, emergency stop points, and coordinated control via the electrical panel. Stainless-steel construction supports hygienic design and cleanability expected in edible oil processing. Integration with certified safety components and adherence to applicable food-industry standards are advised during installation and commissioning.
