Description
Used olive oil processing line PIERALISI MAYOR 3 up to 3 tons per hour
General structure of the system
The used olive oil processing line PIERALISI MAYOR 3 up to 3 tons per hour handles the complete extraction process of olive oil. It processes up to 3 tons of olives per hour under continuous operation. The line includes all essential stages: reception, washing, crushing, malaxing, decanting, and final separation. Operators can run this system in high-capacity, professional environments and consistently achieve high yield and oil quality. Moreover, the design supports long work cycles with minimal maintenance.
Mechanical separation section
The system uses a Pieralisi M3 decanter as its central processing unit. This decanter performs mechanical separation of solids and liquids. Dedicated pumps move the product efficiently between phases. A vibrating screen filters the pulp before entry into the decanter, ensuring stable operation throughout the process. Consequently, the used olive oil processing line PIERALISI MAYOR 3 up to 3 tons per hour supports continuous extraction while maintaining mechanical efficiency. In this way, the system preserves oil quality and limits product loss.
Olive loading and washing
A belt conveyor transports olives to the washing system. A washing unit, equipped with an electrical control panel, automatically cleans the incoming product. Then, a second elevator lifts the olives to the crusher, which mechanically breaks the pulp and pits. This step, in turn, creates an ideal paste for malaxing. Furthermore, the washing and crushing phases reduce the risk of contamination and optimize downstream separation.
Malaxing system
Three stainless steel malaxing tanks, each with an 800-liter capacity, continuously process the olive paste. A dedicated paste pump (model 50) transfers the product from the malaxing unit to the decanter. As a result, the flow remains uninterrupted. Operators use this system to maintain optimal temperature and ensure homogeneity before centrifugation. In addition, the tanks’ design improves thermal consistency and reduces energy waste. Because of this, the used olive oil processing line PIERALISI MAYOR 3 up to 3 tons per hour supports stable paste handling and reduces thermal fluctuation during processing.
Final oil separation
Two Pieralisi separators, model 2000, execute the final oil separation. The system uses centrifugal force to extract the oil and remove water and fine particles. A dedicated electrical cabinet independently controls the separators. Therefore, operators can fine-tune each separator for different batch characteristics. With this configuration, the system guarantees a clean final product with high clarity and minimal residuals. Notably, the entire separation stage operates automatically, increasing productivity.
Control system and by-product handling
A main electrical control panel manages all machine components across the line. Multiple augers transport the spent pomace to storage or waste areas. As such, the system ensures efficient by-product management. The structure uses stainless steel and painted carbon steel, ensuring long-term durability and compliance with industry standards. Additionally, the materials allow for easy sanitization and corrosion resistance. Ultimately, the used olive oil processing line PIERALISI MAYOR 3 up to 3 tons per hour integrates all mechanical functions into a unified control workflow.
Technical conclusion
The used olive oil processing line PIERALISI MAYOR 3 up to 3 tons per hour delivers a modular, high-throughput solution for oil mills. It provides complete automation, mechanical reliability, and scalability for medium to large operations. In summary, operators can manage every phase of the process with precision and minimal manual intervention. Overall, the system combines robustness with flexibility, making it a practical choice for continuous olive oil extraction.
