Extruding Pet Food Machine
An extruding pet food machine producing kibble by cooking and expanding the mix under heat and pressure, with cutting at the die face setting the piece size.
Extrusion is what makes dry pet food digestible: it gelatinises the starch so that the animal can actually use it, which a simple pressed pellet does not achieve. That is why extruded kibble dominates the market despite costing more per tonne to produce than pelleted feed. Kibble shape and size are set by die and cutter.
