Pet Food Machine Set: Pet Food from Food Waste, Up to 1,000 kg a Day

OCTOEN has added the Pet Food Machine Set to its product range. The set makes pet food from food waste and dry raw materials, with a capacity of up to 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) a day.

How the set works

The set is made of separate machines. They can run as one fully integrated line, or each machine can work on its own, with product moving between them by conveyor or by hand.

• Shredding: the ECO-100 Shredder breaks the waste down first.
• Mixing and heat treatment: an ECO-300 KSN mixes the product at 55-70 °C (131-158 °F) and adds a probiotic enzyme automatically. Near the end of the process, the drum holds the product at 85 °C (185 °F) for 65 minutes, a heat step against Salmonella and other pathogens.
• Shaping: a 7 kW extruder shapes the product. The ECO Pellet 220 pellet machine is an option instead of the extruder.
• Baking: a three-tier oven with three 2 m stainless steel belts heats up to 200 °C (392 °F). A pass takes about 3 minutes, and the speed is adjustable. Fans cool the product inside the oven.
• Coating (option): a rotating drum sprays flavoring onto the product.

Control and power

Each machine has its own controls and is managed from a control center. The whole process can be followed from a phone or computer. The system records how much waste is loaded, stores up to 20 recipes, doses enzyme automatically and resumes where it stopped after a power cut.

Total installed power is about 28 kW, or about 29 kW with the coating machine.

The Pet Food Machine Set is separate from the All-in-One Pet Food Machine that OCTOEN will unveil at WasteExpo 2027.
