The pet food production line is used to create animal feed and pet food pellets, typically using grains powder as the main ingredient and mixing it with meat, fish, vitamins, fibers and other nutrients.

The production equipment for processing or packing dry and wet pet food is provided by leading machine and equipment manufacturers worldwide.

The pet food production line typically uses high-expansion corn flour grains as the basic raw material, supplemented by bone meal, meat, protein, vitamins, fibers and other nutrients.

It is composed of an extruder, mixer, hopper and oven, and is capable of producing extruded feed which are purified of harmful microorganisms.

Manufacturers should focus on hygienic design, managing temperature control in the facility and designing for linear flow when constructing a modern pet food processing plant.

The advantages of a pet food production line include precise control of process parameters and automation to ensure optimized particle quality, the ability to produce extruded feed which are purified of harmful microorganisms, its capacity to use high-expansion corn flour as the basic raw material, and its capability to manufacture various kinds of feeds and foods, such as aquatic floating feed, catfish pellet feed, and goldfish pellet feed.

The raw materials for a pet dog food production line typically include grain flour, vegetable protein, minerals and vitamins, as well as meat or fish meal and fresh ingredients in some cases.

Other common raw materials are corn, wheat or rice, meat meal, bone meal or calcium dihydrogen phosphate, choline chloride, wheat bran, byproducts of seafood, poultry, meat, soybean meal and feed grains, and high puff degree corn flour cereal with other ingredients such as meat, bone meal, vitamins and fiber.

The shapes of dog food produced by a pet dog food production line can include round, triangle, flower shape, bone shape and other shapes, which are usually created through different molds (templates) of the feed extruder.

The pet food production line also provides the ability to produce extruded feed which are purified of harmful microorganisms, as well as wet (can, pouch, tray), dry (extruded or baked) and complementary treats.

Additionally, the shape of pet dog food could be round bone shape, star shape, triangle and more.

The manufacturing process of a pet dog food production line typically involves mixing dry and wet ingredients together to form a dough, which is then heated under pressure and pushed through a die machine that cuts the kibbles.

The kibbles are then dried, cooled and spray coated. Other steps in the process may include sieving, mixing and storage of ingredients, as well as adding water to the mixture.

Quality control of a pet dog food production line typically involves co-packers with experience in making foods for different companies, as well as taste-testers to ensure the products are wholesome and natural.

Quality assurance and safety measures are also important, such as production of up to 90% of animal feeds.

In-house analysis methods can help pet food pass the test, while advances in pet food processing and manufacturing techniques can help manufacturers stay up to date with quality control measures.

The basic components of a pet food production line typically include an extruder, mixer, hopper, and oven.

The composition of the pet food usually consists of corn meal grains as the base ingredient, supplemented with bone meal, meat, protein, vitamins, fibers and other additives.

Dog food manufacturing equipment is made from food-grade stainless steel materials, while essential pet food production equipment in 2023 includes ingredients legally defined as meat such as muscle meats.

The working principle of a pet food production line involves the cooking-extrusion process, which exposes the mixture of animal and vegetable materials to high temperatures and pressure.

The extruder operation principle includes mixing and conditioning the raw material in a mixer pre-conditioner before extruding.

Other principles of pet food processing include hygienic design, managing temperature control in the facility, and designing for linear flow, as well as coating dry pet food with the same processes used for other processed foods.

Cleaning a pet food production line involves following key sanitation and safety regulations, reducing maintenance of the production line, thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing all components from floors to doors at the end of each day, and cleaning containers after every use. Cutting-edge design elements can also help manufacturers adjust to a modern pet food processing plant.

Maintenance of a pet food production line involves using standard parts for extrusion and drying equipment, taking advantage of GEA’s experience in the food industry and humanization trend in pet food, using Baker Perkins’ range of production lines designed specifically to cope with weight control, reduced maintenance, and easier use, and utilizing Clextral technology and lines to ensure the maintenance of production lines.

The cost of a pet food production line varies depending on the type of equipment used and the size of the production line.
