MiniSmart™ - 10mt/hr Mini Palm Oil Mill - Basic Questions Answered

What is a CKD-Design Palm Oil Mill?

A CKD-design palm oil mill is a palm oil mill that has been designed, fabricated and fully built-up in the supplier’s plant, before it is complete-knocked-down (CKD) into its major components, packaged into containers and shipped to the buyer’s project site for assembling into a fully functional palm oil mill. 

Why Build a CKD-Design Palm Oil Mill?

The main reason for building palm oil mill with CKD design is its much faster construction and delivery speed.  It normally would take 20-24 months to build a palm oil mill by the conventional way.  With the CKD design, it can be done in 12-14 months, about 40-50% shorter in time. 

This is because with the CKD design, the work flow can progress in very much faster and orderly manner in a factory environment.  Moreover, working time can be easily extended to 2 shifts or even 3 round-the-clock shifts as and when necessary.  On the other hand, logistics and weather are often the major causes in hampering or delaying the work flow in the on-site building of a palm oil mill.     

What is a Movable Palm Oil Mill?

Broadly speaking, a movable or so-called “mobile” palm oil mill is one that is designed with high “mobility” characteristics.  The major components of the processing line are designed in such a way that they could be easily opened up or detached for the purpose of moving them in containers or trucks to a new site for reassembling back to its original state.  In fact, a movable palm oil mill has to be designed and built as a CKD-design palm oil mill.

What is the Optimum Size of a CKD-Design Movable Palm oil Mill?

The optimum size of a CKD-design movable palm oil mill is 10 metric ton (mt) fresh fruit bunch (FFB) per hour.  This is because the major components of palm oil mills of capacity bigger than 10mt per hour would be too large to be detached and moved around in containers or trucks.
