American ET 10T Extruder Unit

Extruder

American ET 10T Extruder Unit

The EXTRU-TECH Extruder maximizes power output in a smaller footprint and uses higher SME (more than mechanical energy) to improve production accuracy. Extruded particles have a unique flavor and loose porous structure, better palatability. At the same time, part of the protein in the particle is converted into a short chain structure, which is easier for pets to digest and absorb.
German KARLSCHNELL Ultrafine Crusher

Low Temperature Emulsifying Machine

German KARLSCHNELL Ultrafine Crusher

KARLSCHNELL uses ultra-fast shear emulsification of fresh materials at temperatures as low as -25 ° C to control the temperature rise during the production process (controlling the temperature rise to prevent the growth of micro-organisms), while helping to achieve unmatched material delicacy, which can reduce the digestive burden of pets and help pets achieve better absorption results.
Dutch DINNISSEN Vacuum Spraying Machine

Spraying

Dutch DINNISSEN Vacuum Spraying Machine

DINNISSEN uses advanced vacuum spraying technology. After the nutrients are sprayed on the surface of the particles, the nutrients are pressed into the particles through the pores of the particles through vacuum negative pressure, fully retaining functional components such as vitamins and minerals. At the same time keep the particles fresh, inside and outside the taste is consistent.
German GEELEN Dryer, Cooling Tower

Drying and Cooling

German GEELEN Dryer, Cooling Tower

GEELEN's thermodynamic and aerodynamic design software has been used in Germany for many years and has been fully validated by the market. The GEELEN dryer equalizes the water content in each grain, and the coolant is cooled and dried using filtered air using a high-efficiency heat exchanger. Finished particle integrity, less debris, can effectively reduce cross contamination.
SYMACH Packaging Machine, Palletizing Machine From The Netherlands

Packaging and Palletizing

SYMACH Packaging Machine, Palletizing Machine From The Netherlands

SYMACH palletizers can stack any type of packaging bag and use individual restacks to ensure that the pallets are neat and stable. Proven for many years in the field of agricultural products, this stacking method guarantees the best stability and can be used to complete the delivery of goods out of the warehouse during production, further preventing possible packaging damage and contamination during transportation, while improving delivery and transfer efficiency.
German BOSCH Packing Machine

Automatic Filling

German BOSCH Packing Machine

BOSCH packaging machine can be fully automatic filling, nitrogen filling, fresh locking, sealing and other tasks, the whole machine uses German core packaging technology. By filling the bag with nitrogen gas, reduce the oxygen content, effectively extend the shelf life of the product, avoid the light and isolation of ultraviolet rays, can effectively prevent the occurrence of oxidation reaction, and maintain the freshness of the product and the nutrients do not lose.
Automated production processes

AUTOMATED PRODUCTION PROCESS

fresh meat grouting technology

FRESH MEAT GROUTING TECHNOLOGY

METZ is the first pet food manufacturer in China to use the fresh meat grouting process.
Fresh meat grouting is the combination of fresh ingredients + advanced technology, so that pet food to retain more fresh meat nutrition and flavor, greatly improve the quality of pet food. Different from most of the domestic pet food using a large number of meat powder into food, Extru-Tech10T bulking unit bulking technology, is the first proposed and applied technical solutions in the field of fresh meat addition, not only fundamentally solve the problem of wet processing difficult products instability, but also through software optimization system control, improve the mixing performance of materials, improve product quality, Increase the amount of fresh meat added to 70%.

Pre-Production Stage

115 tests of raw materials: The raw materials must be tested and completed, including inspection and quarantine certificates, material transportation equipment testing, freshness index of raw materials (volatile basic nitrogen ≤ 15mg/100g) and a series of nutritional indicators.

Middle Stage Of Production

Sampling inspection in the middle of production (30min/ time): real-time sampling of semi-finished products for routine eight items (crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, calcium, total phosphorus, water-soluble chloride, ash) detection. Through the DA7250TM near infrared analyzer (only 6 seconds to complete the detection of physical and chemical indicators (infrared)), TVT6700 food physical properties tester, METTLER TOLEDO HE53 rapid moisture determination instrument.

Late Production Stage

Internal testing: Quality inspection center finished product sampling, sample retention internal inspection can meet the export certification standards of more than 30 test content, real-time control of product quality.
External testing: According to the different requirements of the product, the finished product will also be submitted to the inspection authority of the third party testing institutions, including the United States AAFCO, European FEDIAF, heavy metals, toxins and other testing projects
