The palm fruit digesting stations a steam-heated cylindrical vessel. In the palm fruit digesting station, there is a central rotating shaft carrying a number of beater arms which is used to pound the fruit. To destroy the exocarp of palm fruit, disrupt the oil cells and reduce the viscosity of the oil, the palm fruit digesting process is done under high temperature. But for most small scale palm oil mill plant, in order to reduce cost, it is designed without heat insulation and steam injections.

The palm fruit pressing station is mainly used to extract palm oil from palm pulp.The pulp is then pressed, which bursts the oil-containing cells, releasing the palm oil. There are several types of palm oil pressing machines that may be used to press the fruit pulp, including screw palm oil press machine,double screw palm oil press machine.
