Best for
Oil mills and food companies producing roasted sesame oil, cold-pressed sesame oil or traditional sesame aroma oil
  • Pressed or traditional water-substitution routes in one supplier plan
  • Roasting controlled for the aroma and colour you sell
  • Clarification and filtration before filling
  • Can be built in phases from pressing to filling

Short answer: A sesame oil production line cleans sesame seed, roasts it to the aroma you want, and then extracts the oil by pressing or by the traditional stone-grinding water substitution method, before clarifying and filling it. The target aroma and the crude oil quality decide the route, while material loss, residue handling and waste water shape the detailed design.

How it works

  1. Cleaning – sieves, aspiration and a destoner remove dust, stones, stalks and light impurities.
  2. Washing (optional) – some processes wash sesame to remove fine sand, then drain it.
  3. Roasting – a drum roaster heats the seed to develop colour and aroma; it is cooled quickly at the end. Cold-pressed oil skips this step.
  4. Extraction, route A: pressing – roasted seed goes to a screw press or hydraulic press, giving crude oil and press cake.
  5. Extraction, route B: water substitution – roasted seed is stone-ground to a fine paste, hot water is mixed in, and slow stirring and shaking make the oil float to the top for skimming.
  6. Clarification – crude oil settles and is filtered to remove fine particles.
  7. Filling – clear oil is stored and filled into bottles or drums.

Sesame seed is small and light, so cleaning screens and aspiration are set finely to avoid losing good seed with the dust. Roasting is the step that most affects the final oil, and it is worth agreeing a reference sample before the line is designed.

Which configuration fits

Form Suits Watch out for
Mechanical pressing line Roasted or cold-pressed sesame oil at steady volumes Roast control decides flavour
Stone-grinding water substitution Traditional strong-aroma sesame oil Slower; waste water and paste residue to handle

What we need from you to quote

  • Seed origin, cleanliness and moisture
  • Oil style and a reference sample of the aroma and colour you want
  • Throughput measured on sesame seed input, and hours per day
  • How you will use or sell the press cake or paste residue
  • Waste water treatment options at your site
  • Filling format and where the line ends: crude oil, filtered oil or bottled oil

Where it sits in a line

The line uses oilseed cleaning equipment, an oilseed roaster, a screw oil press or hydraulic oil press, and an edible oil filter. Bottling follows with a liquid filling machine.

Common configurations

  1. Option A

    Mechanical pressing line

    cleaned sesame is roasted (or not, for cold-pressed oil) and pressed in a screw or hydraulic press, then filtered.

  2. Option B

    Stone-grinding water substitution section

    roasted sesame is ground to a paste, mixed with hot water and the oil is separated by shaking; used for strong-aroma sesame oil.

Frequently asked questions

  1. Pressing or water substitution: which gives better sesame oil?

    They make different products. Pressed roasted sesame oil has a clean roasted flavour and suits mechanised production. The stone-grinding water substitution method gives the strong, deep aroma of traditional sesame oil, but is slower and creates waste water to treat.

  2. How dark should the sesame be roasted?

    Darker roasting gives stronger aroma and darker oil but raises the risk of burnt flavour. Your market reference oil is the best guide; we set roasting temperature and time during commissioning.

  3. Do I need refining for sesame oil?

    Roasted sesame oil is usually sold unrefined after settling and filtering, because refining removes the aroma. Refining is used only for neutral sesame oil from unroasted seed.
