The benefits of Exoos
Superior quality
of the filtered oil
Filters freshly pressed oil in a single pass, even when rich in moisture, waxes and margarine.
Cellulose, free from starch and additives, traps moisture and the particles that form sludge. The heat exchanger keeps the oil between 18 and 20 °C, while the closed system limits contact with oxygen: the oil retains its aromas and organoleptic properties for longer.
Ease of use,
cleaning and hygiene
The software developed by Italprogetti guides the operator through dosing, temperature and flow rate, simplifying the process.
There are no cartons to handle: at the end of the cycle, the spent panels fall away without dripping and can be removed with a spatula. In just a few minutes, the filter is ready for the next batch. The system is made of stainless steel and complies with MOCA regulations.
Cost savings and ROI
Oil losses of around 0.3%, 10 to 20 times lower than with traditional systems, and a direct filtration cost of about 2 cents per litre, with no filter sheets to buy or dispose of. The calculator lets every olive mill estimate the return on investment based on its own volumes.
Funding opportunities
Italprogetti and the Exoos team help olive mills identify funding opportunities and incentives they may be eligible for. The figures above are for the Pratico: on the Medium-Maxi, losses are 0.05%.

The Exoos filter press range was developed by Italprogetti to provide oil filtration systems that combine high quality with minimal losses.
Exoos management and monitoring systems also make it an extremely efficient and easy-to-use machine. EXOOS oil filtration systems are designed to handle even very difficult-to-filter olive oils (e.g. Greek oils) with ease and great efficiency, producing high-quality filtered extra virgin olive oil in a single pass, ready for bottling or final storage.

Exoos oil filtration systems offer advanced, compact filtration solutions, combining efficiency and automation with quality and cleanliness in a single system.
Rough filtration and polishing in a single pass, even with difficult oils and without the need
preliminary settling.
Dry, compact spent panels (oil loss below 1 kg per tonne filtered).
Software-controlled operation: minimal operator involvement and remote monitoring capability.
Automatic filter aid dosing.
Unrestricted Start&Stop.
Quick and easy draining, cleaning and washing.
No dripping, even when the filter sheets are discharged.
Extremely quiet: noise level < 70 dBA.

EXOOS PRO PC SOFTWARE
ExoosPRO-Lite
The EXOOS system can be equipped with a touchscreen panel featuring SCADA software, enabling full control of the system and data traceability.
Available features include: Remote monitoring and management via PC, smartphone or tablet Recording and storage of data on filtered oils and parameters for each filtration cycle, ensuring full traceability Monitoring of the filter aids used during the process.
ExoosPRO-Full
For even more advanced automation, the EXOOS system can be fitted with AI-based turbidity control. A camera captures images of the filtered oil, which are analysed by the software
EXOOSpro full: the system detects turbidity levels in real time and sends only oil that meets the parameters set by the artificial intelligence software or by the operator to the storage tanks.

PNEUMATIC FILTER AID LOADING
The filter aids are loaded into the tanks using a pneumatic suction system: the operator only needs to insert a hose into the bag, speeding up the loading process.
3
EXTRACTION HOOD
The filter-aid suction system can be equipped with a station comprising an extraction hood, a scale and a screen. The extraction hood creates a slight vacuum in the loading area, preventing filter aids from dispersing into the work environment. The scale enables filter aids to be weighed quickly and accurately during loading.
4
FILTER AID STORAGE IN SILOS WITH AUTOMATIC LOADING
The filter aids are stored in silos equipped with weighing and automatic loading systems. These silos have a much greater capacity than standard bags, reducing the frequency of loading operations.
5
DISCHARGE AND COLLECTION AUGER
The spent filter sheets are collected in a hopper fitted with a screw conveyor, which moves them and discharges them into an external bin.
6
SAFETY FILTER
The safety filter provides additional protection should it become necessary to catch any solid particles in the event of a rare filter cloth rupture.
It is particularly useful when Exoos is connected directly to bottling lines or to prevent contamination of pipes and tanks.
7
FLOW METER
Integrating the Coriolis mass flow meter enables extremely accurate measurement of the filtered oil flow rate, improving process management and traceability for every filtration cycle.
8
HEAT EXCHANGER
Depending on requirements, the oil is cooled or heated before filtration. The process is automatically controlled by a dedicated PLC.
This allows the Exoos filter to operate within the optimum range of 18–20 °C and filter simply and effectively, producing high-quality extra virgin olive oil in a single pass, ready for bottling or final storage.
