Dog Food Pellet Production Process
Understanding the complete manufacturing process helps you select the right dog food pellet making machine for your specific production requirements.

- ConditioningThe mixture is pre-conditioned with steam to achieve 20-25% moisture content and optimal temperature.
- Extrusion/PelletingThe conditioned mixture passes through the dog food pellet machine where it’s compressed through the die to form pellets.
- Drying/CoolingFresh pellets are dried to 8-10% moisture content and cooled to ambient temperature for stability.
- CoatingOptional application of palatability enhancers, fats, or protective coatings to improve taste and shelf life.
