An expelling machine for extracting oil from groundnut seeds was designed and fabricated for market oriented production. The procedures employed the design stage, construction and testing. The machine components are: the speed reduction gear, expellant unit, drains collector, driving and driven pulleys, and the hopper. The expelling unit consists of a screw expellant shaft with expellant barrel. The groundnut seeds were pre-heated by roasting before extraction of the oil in it. The machine gave a better performance at the speed of 60 revolutions per minute and improvement in the design can be achieved by incorporation a heating chamber along the expeller barrel.
