Oil Seed Processing with Anderson International and APS
Anderson International Corp holds significant historical importance in oilseed processing as the inventor of the original continuous mechanical screw press. This invention marks a pivotal moment in the industry. Anderson has been recognised as a global leader in the oilseed processing industry for over 135 years.
Anderson and APS offer a range of equipment and solutions for oilseed processing right here in New Zealand. Their primary areas of speciality oil extraction equipment and solutions include:
- Full-pressing equipment for speciality oil extraction: Anderson is a leading supplier worldwide.
- Extrusion equipment: Equipment for the preparation of low and high-oil-content seeds to minimise production costs and maximise yield in chemical and mechanical extraction plants.
- Mechanical oilseed processing equipment: Designed to cook, dry, and sheer oilseeds to maximise throughput and oil extraction, exemplified by their DOX™ Extruder Series.
- Mechanical screw presses: The LION™ EXPELLER® Press Series, durable and efficient. Also available, the SUPER DUO™ EXPELLER® Press Series for cold press processing, where heat exposure is minimised for the highest oil recovery in a single pass, particularly suitable for difficult-to-process specialty materials like corn germ, coffee beans, sesame seed, and grapeseed.

SUPER DUO™ EXPELLER® Press Series
With earlier models from the 1920s still in operation today, the Super Duo™ Series Expeller® presses are hands down the most durable and long-lasting presses in the industry for cold-pressed oil extraction. No press has been more widely used on a greater variety of applications than the Super Duo.
The Super Duo Series Expeller is ideal for capacities of 10-30 tons per day on difficult-to-process specialty materials such as corn germ, coffee beans, sesame seed, and grapeseed. The unique dual-pressing design allows for the lowest possible residual oil levels in a single pass.
Features
- Helical gearbox with built-in thrust unit and reversing capabilities.
- Optional removable maintenance “I” beam.
- Anderson proprietary lens style, adjustable choke.
- Anderson diamonbar® barrel bars with new barrel lining and clamping technology.
- Automatic release hopper system.
Popular Applications
- Soybean
- Canola/Rapeseed
- Sunflower
- Peanuts/Ground Nuts
- Copra
- Palm Kernel

Dox™ Extruder
The Dox (Dry Oilseed EXtruder) is designed to mechanically shear, cook, and dry the material being processed for improved oil recovery. The high-shear environment ruptures the oil-containing bodies within the oilseed and generates frictional heat. This heat deactivates harmful enzymes within the oilseed, flash-dries excess moisture, and cooks the proteins for a more efficient pressing.
Features
- High Shear Discharge Head
- Optional Drainage Cage
- V-Belt or Gear Drive
- Manually or Hydraulically Operated Choke
- VFD Driven Feeder
- Shear Pins
Applications
- Soybean (non-GMO, organic, and high oleic)
- Whole Cottonseed
- Pre-press Cake

Lion Expeller Oil Press
The Anderson Lion Expeller Oil press is designed to continue Anderson’s long-standing tradition of providing the industry with the most durable and efficient mechanical screw presses on the market.
Along with maintenance- and operator-friendly packages, the systems can press over 300 metric tons per day (MTPD) in a single machine with residuals as low as 5% when paired with Anderson’s extrusion technology. With minimal modifications, the Anderson Lion Expeller oil press can change from one oilseed application to another, allowing for adaptation to market shifts and fluctuation.
Features
- Helical gearbox with built-in thrust unit and reversing capabilities.
- Optional removable maintenance “I” beam.
- Anderson proprietary lens style, adjustable choke.
- Anderson diamonbar® barrel bars with new barrel lining and clamping technology.
- Automatic release hopper system.
Popular Applications
- Soybean
- Canola/Rapeseed
- Sunflower
- Peanuts/Ground Nuts
- Copra
- Palm Kernel
