The Oleo P 20 N in Detail – Maximum Performance for Professional Use

The Oleo P 20 N oil press is the high-performance version of the P 20 series, developed for businesses aiming for consistent high throughput while maintaining superior oil quality. The “N” stands for Normal – a robust, powerful 400V three-phase drive without compromises: no downsized motor, no reduced power supply, just a full 3 kW for maximum torque in continuous operation.

With a seed capacity of up to 20 kg/h, the P 20 N is designed for operations processing between 100 and several hundred kilograms of seed per week – in contract pressing facilities, larger farms, specialized oil manufactories, and commercial food production. The frequency inverter allows for infinitely variable speed control from 15 to 70 rpm: high speeds for maximum throughput with rapeseed or sunflower seeds, and low speeds for gentle cold pressing of sensitive seeds like walnuts or hemp.

The net weight of approx. 135 kg and the robust steel construction ensure absolute smooth running – even during hours of continuous or multi-shift operation. The integrated heating sleeve allows for quick heating to operating temperature, which is crucial for oil yield and quality, especially with cold-sensitive seeds like walnuts or hemp.

Like all machines in the P 20 series, the OleoPress P 20 N offers 100% compatibility with wear parts from former IBG Monforts Oekotec oil presses – a unique advantage in the market that allows businesses with existing Monforts equipment to use the same spare parts.


Successor to the IBG Monforts D85-1G – 100% Compatible

For decades, IBG Monforts Oekotec GmbH & Co. KG from Mönchengladbach was the market leader for professional screw oil presses in Europe. With their insolvency in 2023, the original spare part supply for thousands of businesses worldwide ended – machines from the D85 – DD85 series are particularly affected.

The Oleo P 20 N can be considered the successor to the IBG Monforts D85-1G. All common wear parts are fully compatible and directly interchangeable:

All parts are manufactured in Germany according to the original engineering drawings and are permanently available from stock at Kambas OleoPress – no long delivery times, no cheap imports.

Why choose the Oleo P 20 N? Key Advantages

Full 3 kW – Maximum Torque

The 400V three-phase motor with 3 kW delivers constant power even with the most difficult seeds and in 24/7 continuous operation without overheating or loss of performance. The most powerful variant of the P 20 series.

Up to 20 kg/h Throughput

Ideal for businesses with weekly pressing volumes from 100 kg upwards. In continuous operation, the P 20 N can process several hundred kilograms of seed per week – economically and efficiently.

135 kg – Absolute Smoothness

The net weight of approx. 135 kg minimizes vibrations and ensures quiet, stable operation even at high speeds and in shift work. No re-centering, no “wandering” of the machine.

100% Monforts Compatibility

All wear parts can be used immediately with IBG Monforts Oekotec oil presses – no need for new investment in spare parts when changing machines.

Infinitely Variable Speed

15–70 rpm infinitely adjustable via frequency inverter. Optimal adaptation to every oilseed and desired oil quality – from gentle cold pressing to maximum throughput.

Made in Germany

Machine and all spare parts manufactured in Germany based on proven engineering designs. Long-term availability of spare parts guaranteed – even years after purchase.


Suitable Oilseeds for the Oleo P 20 N

Thanks to its variable speed control and powerful 3 kW motor, the Oleo P 20 N processes a wide range of oilseeds – from robust industrial seeds to delicate specialty oils:

Classic Oilseeds

  • Rapeseed – high oil content, maximum throughput
  • Sunflower seeds – hulled or unhulled, high yield
  • Linseed – rich in Omega-3, low speed recommended
  • Pumpkin seeds – intense Styrian-style pumpkin seed oil
  • Mustard seeds – for edible and industrial oil

Specialty & Premium Oils

  • Walnuts – fine aroma, low speed for best quality
  • Hemp seeds – valuable fatty acid profile
  • Milk thistle – medical and cosmetic applications
  • Poppy seeds – delicate gourmet oil
  • Grape seeds – high-quality cosmetic oil

Press Screw Recommendation

The P 20 N is supplied with either R8 or R11 press screw:

  • R8 – for hard seeds (Rapeseed, Sunflower, Pumpkin, Mustard)
  • R11 – for soft seeds (Walnut, Hemp, Linseed, Poppy)

Oleo P 20 N, P 20 U or P 20 S – Which variant fits your needs?

Frequently Asked Questions about the Oleo P 20 N

What power connection do I need for the Oleo P 20 N?

The P 20 N requires a 400V three-phase connection (3-ph, 50 Hz). This is usually available in commercial operations, oil mills, and agricultural farms. Without a three-phase connection, we recommend the Oleo P 20 U with a 230V single-phase connection and a 2.2 kW motor.

What is the difference between P 20 N and P 20 U?

The main difference is the motor and power supply: The P 20 N has a 3 kW motor with 400V three-phase power – the most powerful version of the P 20 series. The P 20 U features a 2.2 kW motor with a 230V single-phase connection – ideal for locations without three-phase power. Both models are IBG Monforts compatible and feature the same variable speed control.

How much seed can I process per week?

With a maximum capacity of up to 20 kg/h and a typical operation of 6–8 hours per day, you can easily process several hundred kilograms per week. For regular pressing volumes starting at approx. 100 kg/week, the P 20 N is the ideal choice.

Which press screw is included?

The P 20 N is delivered with either the R8 press screw (for hard seeds like rapeseed and sunflower) or the R11 (for soft seeds like walnut, hemp, and linseed), depending on your order. Please let us know your main seed type when inquiring so we can recommend the optimal configuration. Both screws are permanently available as spare parts.

Is the machine suitable for 24/7 continuous operation?

Yes. The P 20 N is designed for professional continuous operation. The powerful 3 kW three-phase motor, robust steel construction, and 135 kg weight ensure constant performance and smoothness even in multi-shift operations. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of wear parts (press screw, press cylinder) are recommended.

Are spare parts available long-term?

Yes. Kambas OleoPress guarantees the long-term availability of all wear parts – R8 and R11 screws, Type E and R cylinders, nozzles, press heads, coupling nuts, and hoppers – even years after purchase. All parts are made in Germany and available from stock. They are also fully compatible with old IBG Monforts Oekotec machines.

Do you also offer filter presses and bottling plants?

Yes. For the complete oil production chain, we offer matching Oleo F series filter presses (F 20, F 200, F 350, F 470) as well as bottling plants (AF3, AF4). For the P 20 N, we recommend the F 200 or F 350 for appropriate filtering volume.
