Introduction to the Process Flow

1. Raw Material Intake & Batching: Ingredients are mixed uniformly according to the formula; the process supports fully automated PLC control.

2. Extrusion & Core-Filling: Features a high-L/D (length-to-diameter) ratio twin-screw extruder designed specifically for processing high-fresh-meat and high-protein pet food. Optimized screw configurations and extrusion parameters effectively enhance palatability and texture, ensure consistent product quality, and meet the demands of large-scale premium pet food production.Core-Filling Unit: The filling tank utilizes a jacketed water-bath heating structure and is equipped with a top-mounted mechanical agitator; the entire unit adheres to sanitary design standards. The agitation system operates without dead zones, ensuring uniform mixing. Removable spray balls inside the tank significantly simplify cleaning and meet food-grade hygiene requirements.

3. Shaping & Cutting: Capable of processing multiple product strands simultaneously, increasing production capacity by 4–6 times. Product dimensions are customizable, and the unit features an easy-to-clean, food-grade PU conveyor belt.

4. Drying: Features a servo-driven material distribution system for uniform spreading and stable operation. Includes a residue removal system to address cleaning challenges and safety hazards. Offers flexible heating options—steam, gas, or electric—to suit various production conditions.

5. Coating: A coating system comprising a drum, coating tank, metering device, and rotor pump ensures uniform application, enhancing product flavor and quality.

6. Cooling: A belt cooler reduces the product temperature to levels suitable for storage or packaging.

7. Screening: Removes fines and debris to ensure the product meets packaging standards.

8. Packaging: Customizable upon request.
