1. Ingredient Handling and Preparation:

• Raw Material Storage: Ingredients like meat, grains, vegetables, and vitamins are stored in designated areas.

• Weighing and Measuring: Ingredients are accurately weighed and measured to ensure precise formulations.

• Mixing: Ingredients are mixed together to create a uniform blend. This mixture serves as the base for the pet food.

2. Extrusion (for Dry Kibble):rotary moulder machine 

• Extrusion is a common process for producing dry pet food kibble.

• The blended mixture is passed through an extruder, which uses heat, pressure, and shaping dies to create the desired kibble shapes.

• The extruded kibble is then cut to the desired size and shape.

3. Cooking and Drying:

• Dry kibble is typically cooked to kill harmful bacteria and pathogens.

• It is then dried to reduce moisture content and ensure long shelf life.

4. Addition of Nutrients and Flavor:

• After cooking and drying, additional nutrients, flavors, and additives are sprayed onto the kibble.

5. Packaging:

• The finished pet food is packaged into bags, boxes, or other containers.

• Packaging may include quality control checks, such as metal detection or weight verification.

6. Canning (for Wet Food):

• For wet pet food, ingredients are mixed, cooked, and filled into cans.

• Cans are sealed and often sterilized to ensure safety and preservation.

7. Quality Control and Inspection:

• Various quality control measures are taken throughout the production process to ensure product safety and consistency.

• Inspections include checking for foreign objects, verifying ingredient quality, and monitoring product consistency.

8. Labeling and Coding:

• Packaging is labeled with product information, nutritional details, and batch/production codes for traceability.

9. Storage and Distribution:

• The finished pet food is stored in warehouses and then distributed to retailers or consumers.

10. Cleaning and Maintenance:

• Regular cleaning and maintenance of the production line equipment are crucial to ensure food safety and hygiene.
