Description
Pet freeze-dried food is lightweight, fragile, and often irregular in shape. It may include freeze-dried chicken cubes, beef granules, duck meat pieces, salmon cubes, liver granules, egg yolk granules, mixed meat granules, and nutritional freeze-dried pet snacks. These products require gentle handling, accurate weighing, clean filling, and attractive pouch sealing.
This pet freeze-dried granules pouch packing machine line is designed for brands that need to pack premium freeze-dried dog food, freeze-dried cat food, pet nutrition snacks, training treats, and small-batch functional pet food products.
The system uses a multihead weigher to weigh the product accurately, then the premade pouch packing machine automatically picks up the pouch, opens it, fills the freeze-dried granules, seals the pouch, and outputs the finished package. It is especially suitable for doypacks, zipper pouches, and flat pouches used in premium pet food retail packaging.
Compared with standard dry pet food, freeze-dried granules require more attention to product breakage, dust, light weight, and pouch appearance. SmartPack can configure the feeding height, product contact parts, vibration level, filling method, and optional nitrogen flushing according to your freeze-dried product characteristics.
