Puppy Food: Low-Temperature Extrusion for Digestive Needs
Puppies have delicate digestive systems, so their dog food needs to be loose, easily digestible, and nutrient-dense. When using a wet dog food pellet machine, the temperature should be controlled at 80-100℃, employing a wet extrusion process to shorten the residence time of raw materials in the extrusion chamber (15-18 seconds) and avoid high-temperature damage to nutrients. Regarding raw materials, the proportion of fishmeal is increased to 25%-30%, and the proportion of starch is reduced to 30%-35%, ground to a finer mesh than 100 mesh, suitable for the low-temperature operation of the wet dog food extruder machine, ensuring fine and easily digestible pellets. 0.1% probiotics are also added, using a post-addition process to enhance the puppy's immunity.

Adult Dog Food: Precise Extrusion for Palatability and Hardness
Adult dog food needs to balance palatability and chewability. The temperature of the wet dog food making machine is controlled at 130-150℃, the pressure at 4-5MPa, and the screw speed at 280-320r/min to ensure full starch gelatinization and a compact pellet structure. The raw materials contain 40%-45% corn flour to provide support during puffing, and 3%-5% oil, using a post-oil spraying process to enhance palatability and shelf life. For large adult dogs, the die orifice diameter can be increased, and the puffing machine pressure can be raised to make the kibble harder, meeting the chewing and teething needs.

Functional Dog Food: Process Adapted to Specific Needs
Functional dog food (low-fat, prescription) requires targeted adjustments to the wet pet food making machine parameters. Low-fat food requires a reduced oil content (≤2%) and an increased puffing machine temperature to 140-150℃ to enhance kibble compactness and prevent collapse due to insufficient oil. Prescription food (such as food for sensitive stomachs) requires low-temperature puffing (80-90℃) to reduce raw material irritation, and the addition of 1%-2% binder. Fine-tuning the puffing machine parameters stabilizes the kibble structure, adapting to the specific digestive needs of dogs. High-fiber and irritating ingredients are avoided in the raw materials to ensure precise matching with the puffing machine process.
