    Abstract: Four multiple regression models of press speed and throughput capacity were developed to examine the trend of wear in screw presses used in palm oil mills. A study by the author shows that the press unit constitutes point of severe wear in palm oil mills. Result shows that double-log model gave the best fitting curve for predicting the combined influences on the flights wear by the press speed and throughput capacity.
