For home-based production and small workshops (1-10 tons per month), a small single-screw pet food processing machine is an ideal choice, its core advantages being "low cost and ease of operation."

These extruders cost only 1000-8000 yuan, have a power of 2.2-7.5kW, occupy 1-2 square meters, require no professional installation, and can be started immediately after plugging in a power source. The operation is simple; parameters such as temperature and speed can be adjusted via a touchscreen, allowing even those without professional production experience to quickly get started. For example, a pet shop owner uses a 5000 yuan small extruder to produce 2 tons of homemade dog food per month. Besides meeting the needs of his own store, he also sells through social media, earning an extra 10,000 yuan per month, recouping the equipment investment in just 3 months.
For medium-sized production enterprises (10-50 tons per month), a medium-sized single-screw or small twin-screw pet feed extruder machine is more advantageous, its core advantages being "high cost-effectiveness and stable, high efficiency." Medium-sized single-screw extruders have an hourly capacity of 100-200 kg and are priced between 20,000 and 50,000 yuan, suitable for small-batch production. Small twin-screw extruders, with their strong mixing capabilities, are suitable for producing complex, high-end feeds, priced between 50,000 and 100,000 yuan, and offer higher uniformity and quality in the finished product. These extruders are equipped with automatic feeding and simple control systems, requiring only one operator. Their production efficiency is 2-3 times higher than smaller equipment, and they have a low failure rate, making them suitable for continuous production of 8-12 hours per day, perfectly matching the production needs of medium-sized enterprises.
For large factories (monthly production of 50 tons or more), large twin-screw or multi-screw extruders are the inevitable choice, offering advantages in "high capacity and intelligent operation." Large twin-screw extruders can reach an hourly capacity of 500-1000 kg, with some production lines even exceeding 1 ton. Equipped with an intelligent PLC control system, they can achieve fully automated control of the entire process from feeding, extrusion, molding, and drying, supporting remote monitoring and data traceability. Meanwhile, the equipment boasts high stability, capable of continuous 24-hour operation, and a failure rate 80% lower than smaller equipment, meeting the demands of large-scale, standardized production. A large pet food company is equipped with 10 large extruder pellet machines, producing 200 tons of feed per month, with products covering the entire country. The high capacity and stability of the extruders are the core guarantee for its large-scale production.
From home to factory, the pet food extruder pellet machine, through different models and configurations, meets the needs of all-scale production. This wide adaptability makes it a "universal piece of equipment" in the pet food production field. Whether you are an individual wanting to try making your own pet food or a company planning to expand production, you can find a suitable extruder and leverage its advantages to achieve your production goals.
