A side-squeezing squeezer including a hinge, a first presser connected to the hinge, a second presser connected to the hinge opposite of the first presser, and a support positioned between the first presser and the second presser and configured to hold a foodstuff in place. The first and second pressers may be configured to squeeze the foodstuff using lever action from the side.

Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for a rosin press that allows improved extraction over existing presses. The press includes improved platens for rosin collection with built-in gutter rail collection systems and well-distributed force on the pressed product and multiple hydraulic rams. In addition, computerized systems are provided for controlling and monitoring the system in an automated fashion, as well as safety features to prevent injury and damage to the product, especially during automated pressing.

Herb oil pressing devices and methods are provided. The devices include a pair of closable opposed jaws that can apply pressure to a herb placed between the jaws; a motor connected to the jaws for controlling the closing of the jaws, and, when closed, controlling the pressure produced between the jaws; a heater connected to the jaws for heating the jaws and herb; a housing in which the jaws, the motor, and the heater are housed; and a user interface connected to the jaws and the heater, the user interface for inputting a selection of temperature, pressure, and amount of time the temperature and pressure is applied to a herb positioned between the jaws to extract oil therefrom. Related computer-implemented methods of pressing a herb are also provided.

A mechanical press is provided that utilizes linear actuation driven by an electric power source and two opposing horizontal platform mounted press plates, an upper fixed plate and a lower traveling plate arranged vertically and tracked via vertical track posts to press resin, oils, extracts, or compounds from a raw plant material. The press plates are heated during press operation and function to heat and melt the desired plant products and the force from the press plates squeezes the melted materials out of the plant and onto a parchment paper or into a melt groove to flow to a collection tray.
