Automatic pet canned food production line for wet pet food factories. From meat prep to sterilization. HACCP compliant, turnkey solution.
Producing high-quality canned pet food is very different from making human canned food — and it’s often more demanding.
Pet food buyers care about nutrition stability, texture consistency, food safety, and long shelf life. At the same time, factories need stable output, low labor cost, and flexible recipes.
Our Pet Canned Food Production Line is designed specifically for wet pet food production, including meat chunks, pâté, gravy-based, and mixed formulas. From raw material preparation to retort sterilization and final packaging, the entire line operates automatically and hygienically.
At HSYL, we build this line based on real factory needs — not lab conditions.
This production line is suitable for:
Canned dog food
Canned cat food
Meat chunks in gravy
Pâté-style wet pet food
Mixed meat & vegetable pet food
Functional pet food (high-protein, grain-free, etc.)
Protein options: chicken, beef, fish, tuna, salmon, lamb, by-products
Add-ins: vegetables, broth, jelly, supplements
Different textures need different filling solutions — and that’s where proper equipment selection really matters.
Frozen or fresh meat blocks are cut, ground, or diced according to recipe requirements.
Benefit: Uniform particle size ensures consistent texture and smooth filling.
Meat, broth, additives, and supplements are mixed evenly in vacuum or paddle mixers.
Real-world insight: Proper mixing prevents nutrient separation after sterilization.
Ingredients are cooked or pre-cooked to enhance digestibility and flavor.
Advantage: Improves palatability for pets while stabilizing texture.
Automatic fillers handle solid, semi-solid, and viscous materials, filling cans or trays accurately.
Key point: Servo-controlled filling ensures consistent weight and appearance.
Vacuum can seamers provide airtight sealing, compatible with easy-open lids.
Benefit: Secure sealing is critical for shelf life and export approval.
Sealed cans are sterilized in steam or water spray retorts, controlled by PLC systems.
Compliance: Designed to meet AAFCO, HACCP, GMP, and export standards.
After sterilization, cans are cooled, dried, labeled, and packed into cartons. Palletizing systems are optional.
Clean packaging helps brand trust — even in the pet food market, appearance matters.
