Canned and jarred pet food

Industry Background and Core Challenges

As the pet food market continues to grow, canned and bottled packaging has become widely adopted due to its excellent sealing capabilities, convenient storage, and extended shelf life. These packaging formats are commonly used for wet food, canned staple meals, and premium nutritional pet foods.

However, during high-speed filling and packaging processes, manufacturers may face various quality risks, such as inaccurate fill weights, packaging defects, and contamination by foreign objects like metal fragments, glass, stones, or bone fragments. Ensuring product safety and consistent quality is crucial for safeguarding pet health and maintaining brand reputation.

To address these challenges, pet food manufacturers require reliable inspection solutions to monitor product weight and detect potential foreign objects; such measures not only help improve production efficiency and reduce quality risks but also ensure the safety of the pet food.

Application scenario: Premium staple food for cats and dogs (plastic bottles, tinplate cans, or aluminum cans).

Key technical pain points :

For bottled and canned pet food, direct manual inspection of internal quality is impossible after sealing, making it difficult for traditional random sampling methods to guarantee the safety of every individual unit.

Bottled and canned pet food is typically produced on high-speed automated filling lines; factors such as product viscosity, the condition of filling equipment, and production speed can lead to issues like under-filling or overweighting.

The production process involves multiple stages—including filling, capping, and sterilization—during which defects such as incomplete sealing, deformed lids, sealing anomalies, misaligned labels, or missing batch codes may occur.

Intelligent testing projects:

Side-illuminated X-ray inspection machine: HISTOM side-illuminated X-ray technology intelligently identifies and shields the metal material interference of the tin can itself, directly sees through the meat inside, and accurately identifies foreign objects such as animal bone fragments, fish bones, metal needles and glass shards.

 

The dynamic checkweigher performs in-line weight inspection on individual bottles or cans of pet food, automatically identifies products with abnormal weights based on preset standards, and removes non-conforming items using an automatic rejection mechanism.
