ISAV-4500 Vertical Cooker
Designed for high-capacity processing plants, the ISAV-4500 Vertical Cooker provides comprehensive seed conditioning through precise temperature and moisture control. Its system optimizes the raw material structure to maximize efficiency in subsequent pressing or direct extraction processes.
Process Objectives
- Structurally condition the seed to achieve optimum plasticity.
- Reduce oil viscosity to facilitate oil release.
- Promote controlled protein coagulation.
- Thermally sterilize the seeds and eliminate undesirable contaminants.
Key Features
- Efficient indirect heating: Steam-based heat transfer operating at 6–8 bar.
- Operational flexibility: Adjustable heating from 90–110°C for pressing applications and 65–72°C for direct extraction processes.
- Material flow control: Mechanical floor-to-floor transfer system with external adjustment.
- Hygienic and durable design: Vapor extraction system manufactured entirely from stainless steel.
- Easy maintenance: Individual manway access on each level for convenient inspection.
- Heavy-duty construction: Equipped with a robust thrust bearing assembly designed to withstand the high axial loads of the vertical shaft, with stirring paddles installed on every level.
