Case Study: How a Southeast Asian Customer Doubled Daily Soybean Processing Capacity with Our Integrated Oil Extraction and Refining Solutions

Case Study: How a Southeast Asian Customer Doubled Daily Processing Capacity

In the competitive world of soybean oil processing, efficiency isn’t just an advantage—it’s survival. A mid-sized oil mill in Vietnam recently transformed its operations by adopting our integrated helical press + solvent extraction + refining system. The result? A 105% increase in daily throughput, reduced energy consumption by 22%, and a drop in manual labor costs by 35%.

“We used to run 8 hours a day with 12 workers per shift. Now we process twice as much in 6 hours—with only 6 people.”
— Mr. Nguyen, Plant Manager, Vinh Phuc Soybean Oil Mill

The Bottleneck Before the Upgrade

The client was stuck in a cycle of inefficiency:

• Daily capacity: ~3.5 tons of soybeans (manual pressing)
• Oil yield: ~17.5% (low due to inconsistent heat control)
• Energy use: 12 kWh/ton (high for traditional setups)
• Manual labor: 12 operators per shift (error-prone, high turnover)

Why This Equipment Combination Worked

We didn’t just sell machines—we designed a production flow tailored to their scale and goals:

Implementation Highlights

The integration wasn’t just about hardware—it was about seamless automation:

• PLC-based control system enabled remote monitoring and real-time data logging
• Continuous feed-to-output workflow minimized downtime between stages
• Training modules helped local technicians master diagnostics within 2 weeks

Results That Speak Volumes

This case proves that upgrading doesn't mean overhauling—just smart optimization. Whether you're running a small plant or planning expansion, this model works across scales.
