I. Introduction of High Meat Pet Food

Compared with the meat content of 0-30% by weight of ordinary pet food/kibbles, raw meat content of high-meat pet food is around 30%-70%. High-content meat raw materials greatly increase the nutrition and palatability of pet food, becoming an increasingly important market segment for pet food.

The extrusion process is an important method for high meat dog and cat pet food production. Improved twin-screw extrusion technology can handle either dry or wet meat materials in high content. The unique design of the twin-screw pet food extruder machine improves the ability of mixing and kneading under high-moisture conditions of extrusion.

• Applicable raw materials include combinations of various grains, gluten-free grains, dry/wet meat products, vegetable powder and fruits puree.
• The humidity of extrudable raw materials can reach 40%
• The particle shape and size can be changed freely according to the extrusion mold.
• By changing the extrusion die, this high meat dog and cat food production machine can also process various aquatic feeds, such as fast-settling pellets, slow-settling pellets, and floating pellets.
• Adding a core injection machine, a pulling machine, and replacing the extrusion mold, this high meat pet food manufacturing machine can produce CO-extrusion products including pet chews and treats.
