Oil Mill Machinery Forging
Oil expellers crush oilseed under enormous continuous pressure. The worm shaft carries that load along its whole length while the seed abrades it constantly.
Forged oil mill components — expeller worm shafts, press cage parts and gear blanks — carry continuous high torque while seed husk and grit abrade them. Case hardened surfaces over tough cores handle the combination, supplied same-day within Rajkot district.

Worm Shaft Duty
The expeller worm shaft transmits high torque while pressing seed against the cage. Load is continuous rather than cyclic, and abrasion from husk and grit removes material steadily. Case hardened shafts in tough alloy grades handle it best.
- Continuous high torque
- Abrasion from husk and grit
- Case hardened surfaces
- Tough core for shock
Saurashtra's Oil Machinery Base
Rajkot and the surrounding Saurashtra belt build a substantial share of India's oil mill machinery, largely for groundnut, cottonseed and castor processing. We supply that local industry directly, with same-day delivery within the district.
People also ask
Why is Rajkot associated with oil mill machinery?
The Saurashtra belt builds a substantial share of India's oil mill and expeller machinery, serving groundnut, cottonseed and castor processing across western India.
What material suits expeller worm shafts?
EN19 or EN24 for torsional strength with case hardened surfaces for abrasion resistance, or 20MnCr5 where a deeper uniform case is preferred.
How fast can you supply local oil mill customers?
Same day within Rajkot district for stock and repeat items; urgent open die replacements in 7 to 20 days.

Questions Answered
Do you supply oil mill machinery makers?
+
Yes, worm shafts, press cage components, gear blanks and drive parts, with same-day delivery within Rajkot district.
What causes expeller worm shaft failure?
+
Abrasive wear from husk and grit, combined with torsional fatigue from continuous high torque.
Can you make shafts from a worn sample?
+
Yes, through reverse engineering including grade identification and drawing approval.
