Industrial Dry Pet Food Cat Food Machine

Industrial Dry Pet Food Cat Food Machine

This fully automated industrial twin-screw extrusion production system is specially developed for mass manufacturing premium dry cat kibble, targeting medium and large pet feed factories. Built with mature high-temperature puffing technology, the whole line can customize cat food in diverse appearances and balanced nutrition by switching forming dies and adjusting raw material formulas. All material-contact components adopt food-safe stainless steel, matched with intelligent closed-loop parameter control, which helps manufacturers launch multi-series feline dry food to seize segmented pet consumption markets.

Core Equipment & Complete Production Workflow

1. Full Line Equipment Configuration

The complete set covers raw material crushing unit, batching mixer, buffer storage hopper, steam pre-conditioner, twin-screw extrusion main machine, air conveying device, multi-layer hot air dryer, vertical elevator, vacuum oil & flavor coating machine, cooling conveyor and finished product sorting machine. Small-scale models integrate crushing and mixing functions to save workshop space.

All contact parts with raw materials and finished cat food are made of standard stainless steel, meeting international food hygiene standards. The modular split design supports quick disassembly, self-cleaning and simple daily maintenance, greatly cutting down equipment downtime.

2. Standard Production Workflow

Raw material crushing & automatic batching → uniform mixing → steam pre-curing → high-temperature high-pressure puffing forming (supports adding 20%–40% fresh meat paste, fish slurry and bone mud) → air transportation → gradient temperature drying → vacuum oil spraying & flavor seasoning → low-temperature cooling → finished product screening & packaging.

Users can freely replace forming molds to produce heart-shaped, oval, round, strip and other cat food pellets, and adjust extrusion parameters to modify internal nutrition matching ratio.

Product Core Strengths & Competitive Advantages

Superior puffing effect with diversified pellet shapesThe upgraded twin-screw extruder can deeply process fresh meat paste and animal by-products, which solves the poor puffing problem of traditional single-screw devices. The produced cat kibble has porous internal structures to absorb oil and flavor fully, bringing better taste for picky cats. Various molds are available to make custom-shaped cat food and expand your product range.

Wide output range with flexible layout solutionsHourly output covers 100kg to 3000kg, fit for small workshops, medium processing plants and large automated factories. Users can adjust raw material ratio, extrusion temperature, drying time and other parameters to finish custom cat food production based on your market demands.

Energy-saving sealed environmental structureThe whole production line adopts full seal design to reduce heat loss and dust emission. The multi-layer dryer is configured with timed dehumidification and waste heat recovery systems to boost drying efficiency and cut long-term power costs.

Applicable Scenarios & Market FeedbackThis equipment is ideal for pet feed manufacturers, self-owned cat food brands and OEM factories. It perfectly produces high-meat, grain-free and functional cat food, and fixes the defects of traditional machines such as hard cleaning, frequent spare part replacement and unstable pellet quality.Customers feedback that the line runs continuously and stably. The finished cat food complies with international pet nutrition standards with full nutrient retention. The PLC intelligent control panel is easy to operate, workers can master the production process after short training.
