Screw Presses

Screw Press Render

The geometry and dynamics of screws make them ideal for product transfer and mixing. Another important process is moisture, oil, juice, etc. removal through mechanical pressing of products in a continuous process mode with a dewatering screw press. This type of process is used in many industries including:

  • Wet corn milling
  • Sugar
  • Ethanol
  • Citrus
  • Pulp & Paper
  • Oil extraction
  • Manure / Fertilizer
  • Recycling
  • Sludge processing
  • Plastics recycling
  • Food waste
