Results for “Pet Food Machine”

A pet food machine producing dry kibble for dogs, cats and other companion animals, covering the cooking and forming stage of the manufacturing process.

It is supplied as a single machine or as the centre of a complete line, with mixing ahead of it and drying, fat coating and cooling after. Which you need depends on what you already have in place: producers scaling up often have mixing and bagging and need only the extrusion and drying stages, and there is no sense replacing equipment that works. Contact us with your intended output and an inventory of your existing machines.

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.
