Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cat litter technology, specifically a cat litter forming device with an adjustable mold structure. Background Technology
[0002] Cat litter is a waste disposal material specifically designed for cats. Common raw materials include bentonite clay, tofu residue, crystal granules, and pine wood. After processing, it is mostly in granular or strip form. Its core function is to absorb cat urine and bind feces, and some types can quickly clump together for easy cleaning.
[0003] Cat litter forming equipment is a key piece of equipment in cat litter production. It refers to the process of processing cat litter raw materials into products with a fixed shape (commonly granules or strips) and a certain degree of hardness using specific technologies. After forming, the cat litter's absorbency and clumping ability are improved, making it easier for cats to quickly wrap their excrement after use.
