Description
Wet pet food requires a different packing solution from dry kibble. It may be sticky, high-moisture, chunky, or mixed with sauce and gravy. This wet pet food vacuum pouch packing line is designed to improve feeding stability, weighing accuracy, sealing quality, and leakage prevention.
The screw multihead weigher helps move moist or sticky pet food more consistently into the weighing system. After weighing, the vacuum pouch packing machine fills the product into premade pouches, removes residual air, seals the pouch, and outputs a clean finished package.
This line is suitable for brands packing wet cat food, wet dog food, fish-based pet meals, meat chunks, gravy-based formulas, and fresh pet food portions. It can be configured with retort pouch compatibility, vacuum sealing, date coding, checkweighing, and finished product conveying.
Application: wet cat food; wet dog food; tuna pet food; meat chunks; fresh pet meals; gravy-based pet food; high-moisture pet food
Bag Style: premade flat pouch; vacuum pouch; retort pouch
Line Flow: product feeding → screw multihead weigher → pouch loading → pouch opening → filling → vacuum sealing → date/lot coding → checkweigher and reject → finished output
Kindly Reminder:
Our R&D team can tailor infeed, weighers, forming sets, and QA modules to match your products and target retail formats.
