Abstract
The study focuses on the automation of the drive system of a filter press in palm oil extraction plants, with the aim of optimizing operational efficiency, reducing manual intervention and improving process accuracy.The proposal replaces the manual drive with a motorized system controlled by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).A Siemens motor-reducer, model Z79-LE112MC4P-G040M-PN, was used, which guarantees a torque of 777.75 Nm and an output speed of 40 rpm, sufficient to efficiently tighten and release the filter press.The system control was implemented by a Siemens LOGO 230RC PLC, complemented by an AM2 analog expansion module to interpret strain gauge signals.These signals determine the exact moment to stop the motor-reducer once the programmed tightening force is reached.Programming was done in Ladder language using LOGOCONFORT software.The integration of these components improves system consistency and reliability, standardising processing times and reducing physical effort.The results highlight an increase in productivity and operational safety, aligning with modernisation trends in the palm oil industry.This advance represents a significant step towards greater sustainability and competitiveness of the sector.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
