Automatic pet fish meat canning production line for wet pet food. Integrated cooking, filling, sealing, sterilization, and cooling. Stable quality, food safety compliant, customizable capacity. Direct from China manufacturer.
As the global pet food market continues to grow, wet pet food—especially fish-based canned products—has become one of the fastest-growing categories. Compared with dry pet food, canned fish meat offers higher palatability, better nutrition retention, and stronger brand differentiation.
At HSYL, we design and manufacture Pet Fish Meat Canning Production Lines specifically for wet pet food factories that require stable quality, food safety compliance, and scalable production capacity.
Whether you are starting a new pet food brand or upgrading an existing factory, this line is built to support long-term, industrial-scale production.
A Pet Fish Meat Canning Production Line is a fully integrated system used to process raw fish into commercially sterilized canned pet food. The line covers the entire workflow, including:
Fish preparation and trimming
Cooking or blanching
Portioning and filling
Sauce or gravy dosing
Can sealing
Retort sterilization
Cooling, drying, and inspection
The final product is shelf-stable canned fish meat that meets international pet food safety standards and is ready for global distribution.
From our experience, most quality issues in pet canned food are not caused by recipes, but by unstable processing equipment. That is exactly where a professional production line makes the difference.
Tuna, sardine, mackerel, salmon trimmings
White fish, mixed fish meat
Fish flakes, chunks, shredded fish
Optional additives: vegetables, rice, broth, jelly, gravy
Canned fish chunks for pets
Fish meat in gravy or jelly
Mixed fish & vegetable wet pet food
Custom recipes based on brand positioning
The system is designed to protect fish meat structure, avoiding excessive breakage while maintaining high filling accuracy.
A typical Pet Fish Meat Canning Production Line includes the following stages:
Raw Fish Handling & Preparation
Cleaning, trimming, deboning, and portion preparation depending on fish type.
Pre-Cooking / Blanching
Removes excess moisture and odor, improves texture stability, and prepares fish meat for filling.
Fish Meat Portioning & Filling
Accurate weight control ensures consistent nutrition labeling and cost control.
Gravy / Sauce Filling
Optional multi-head liquid dosing system for broth, jelly, or gravy.
Can Seaming / Sealing
High-precision seaming ensures airtight closure and long shelf life.
Retort Sterilization
Steam or water spray retort systems achieve commercial sterility while protecting texture and flavor.
Cooling & Drying
Rapid cooling prevents overcooking and improves can appearance.
Inspection & Packing
Optional weight checkers, vacuum inspection, and labeling systems.
Each section can be configured independently, which gives you flexibility for future upgrades.
All product-contact parts are made from SUS304 or SUS316 stainless steel, with smooth surfaces and easy-to-clean structures.
The design supports HACCP and GMP requirements, which is essential for exporting pet food to Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Latin America.
Simply put:
It’s not just food-grade—it’s pet-food-grade.
In pet food production, consistency matters more than speed.
Our system focuses on:
Uniform fish meat portioning
Stable gravy ratios
Controlled thermal processing
This ensures every can looks and tastes the same—batch after batch.
That consistency is what builds trust with distributors and pet owners.
The production line is controlled by PLC + touch screen, reducing dependence on manual labor.
One operator can manage multiple stations, significantly lowering operating costs while improving production safety.
For many customers, this alone shortens the ROI cycle by 30–40%.
No two pet food factories are exactly the same. That’s why HSYL offers modular customization, including:
Different can sizes and shapes
Adjustable production capacities
Recipe-specific filling systems
Future expansion compatibility
You invest once, and the line grows with your business.
