MANUFACTURER-PUBLISHED PRODUCT REFERENCES
Product families and process scope
Official product pages reviewed on 2026-11-01. These are selected documented offerings, not an exhaustive current catalogue or independently tested performance.
Decanters for seed-oil / press-oil clarification
Separating solids from seed oil and mechanically pressed oil.
The official application page describes clarification of oil after screw pressing; this is not by itself full edible-oil refining.
Official product source: Industrial Decanter for Refinement of Seed Oil & Press Oil
Separators for edible-oil refining
Separation within a multi-stage oil-refining process.
The official refining page distinguishes press-oil clarification and separator duties, including degumming. Confirm the specific machine and process interface.
Official product source: Refining of edible oils
Connect this supplier to a processing route
- Soybean — Stage-level clarification/refining reference; distinguish mechanical oil from other extraction routes
- Sunflower — Stage-level press-oil clarification and refining-separation reference
- Rapeseed / canola — Stage-level oil clarification and refining-separation reference
- Groundnut / peanut — Stage-level pressed-oil clarification reference; choose further refining from the product brief
What to confirm in a quotation
Specify solids load, oil condition, separation duty and acceptance tests. Ask which decanter or separator is included and which upstream/downstream refining operations remain outside its scope.
Confirm current availability, configuration, local requirements, supply boundary and acceptance conditions directly with the supplier. Source review does not change this listing into a certification or endorsement.
MODEL · TRIAL · PROJECT EVIDENCE
Current catalogue, configuration trials and acceptance evidence
Reviewed 2026-11-02. FW400 and Z-Series are publicly presented; the actual oil-specific model and configuration need confirmation. Current website listing is not stock or delivery confirmation. Trial services and historical project accounts do not establish acceptance of your proposed line.
Models and configurations currently described
FW400 decanter
The current product page describes a modular decanter and lists fats/oils/biofuels among application areas. It is also featured in a September 2026 announcement. Neither source approves a specific four-oilseed oil stream without application selection.
Official page retrieved on 2026-11-02; current quotation and configuration still required
Official sources: FW400 Decanter: Solid-Liquid Separation for Industrial Applications; Flottweg Showcases New FW400 Decanter at PACK EXPO International 2026
Z-Series decanter family
The live family page describes modular two-/three-phase configurations and hygienic/drive options. It does not establish a named crop-specific machine in this review; select the exact model from a separation trial.
Official page retrieved on 2026-11-02; current quotation and configuration still required
Official sources: The Flottweg Z-Series high performance decanter centrifuges
Published trial support
Process Center feasibility and scale-up work
The official centre description covers laboratory analysis, pilot configurations and design recommendations. Request a representative oil/solids sample and the proposed separation duty; laboratory feasibility and industrial acceptance are separate steps.

Project evidence and its limits
Seed/press-oil application reference; customer acceptance gap
The application page supports a press-oil solids-separation duty and project-planning discussion. No named four-oilseed customer commissioning dossier or signed acceptance report was located in these reviewed sources. This application description is not presented as a completed customer project.
Current application description retrieved 2026-11-02; no project date or customer sign-off established
Official sources: Industrial Decanter for Refinement of Seed Oil & Press Oil
Public acceptance evidence status
No signed factory-acceptance or site-acceptance report, agreed performance protocol or customer-signed test dataset was present in the selected public sources. This is a limit of this review, not proof that the supplier has no such records.
Documents and conditions to agree for your project
Editorial questions to agree with the supplier, not a manufacturer-issued acceptance standard.
- Specify oil composition, solids loading, flow and temperature before choosing a FW400/Z-Series configuration.
- Agree outlet-oil solids, oil retained in separated solids, sampling methods and cleaning/food-contact scope.
- Request a current crop-specific reference and a written pilot-to-production acceptance plan; clarification is not a complete refining line.
