The invention relates to the technical field of
pet food processing, and discloses surrounding hot air slow
drying equipment for
pet food processing and a three-section type baking method.The surrounding hot air slow
drying equipment for
pet food processing comprises a
drying box, a hot
air drying unit is installed at the bottom in the drying box, and a circulating conveying unit is installed in the drying box; a plurality of drying frames are evenly distributed on the circulating conveying unit, material overturning mechanisms are arranged in the drying frames, positioning assemblies are installed in the drying box, and the material overturning mechanisms and the positioning assemblies are matched to be used for overturning raw materials in the drying frames.
Food particles on the drying frame are turned over by moving a turning plate in the drying frame, meanwhile, an arc-shaped plate and a second fixing plate are matched to enable the
food particles to be scattered in an S shape, damage to the
food particles is avoided, meanwhile, the contact face of the
food particles and hot air is replaced, and the drying effect is improved while the pet food yield is increased; through the three-stage baking process, the gelatinization degree of the baked grain
starch of the pet food can be increased to 90% or above, and
digestion and absorption are facilitated.
