8 month 19 Day, the 28 The Asia Pet Show opened at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. Zhengchang showcased its pet food engineering system solutions, engaging in in-depth discussions with industry partners from various countries and regions to address practical needs such as product innovation, stable production, flexible manufacturing, and digital‑intelligent upgrades.
As the pet food market continues to segment, product variety, ingredient formulations, and processing technologies are becoming increasingly diverse. Consequently, manufacturers’ equipment requirements have evolved from simply ensuring production capacity to encompassing consistent quality, product customization, operational efficiency, and sustained innovation. Drawing on years of process expertise and engineering experience, Zhengchang integrates customers’ product positioning, raw material characteristics, formulation specifications, and capacity targets into a comprehensive planning framework, delivering more tailored solutions for pet food companies at different stages of development.
Pet food production encompasses numerous stages, including raw material handling, grinding, blending, extrusion, drying, coating, and cooling. Any deviation at any stage can compromise product appearance, palatability, and consistent quality. To address this, Zhengchang adopts a holistic approach, conducting integrated design across process flow, equipment configuration, facility layout, and automated control systems, ensuring seamless coordination among all production steps.
During this process, key equipment such as puffing, drying, and vacuum coating must be fully aligned with the raw material characteristics, formulation structure, and product requirements. By synergistically optimizing both processes and equipment, Zhengchang enhances the stability and adaptability of the production workflow, enabling the line to accommodate diverse formulations and product forms while leaving room for future category expansion, formulation adjustments, and capacity upgrades—thereby minimizing the time and cost associated with repeated retrofits.
Whether the entire production line can be successfully implemented hinges on the accuracy of the preliminary planning. Constructing a pet food factory involves multiple disciplines, including process engineering, equipment selection, civil engineering, and automation; any inadequacy in the coordination among these areas can jeopardize project timelines and post‑commissioning operational performance. To address this challenge, Zhengchang leverages digital technologies in scheme design and project communication, using visualizations to depict production line layouts, process flows, and equipment operating logic. This approach enables clients to gain a clearer, more intuitive understanding of the proposed solution and facilitates thorough validation—prior to implementation—of space allocation, process integration, and equipment configuration.
Once the factory is commissioned, the digital‑intelligence system can further provide data‑driven support for production monitoring, parameter management, quality traceability, and equipment maintenance, making the production process more transparent and enabling data‑based decision‑making. In this way, digital technologies permeate every stage—from solution design and project implementation to ongoing production operations—providing robust support for the factory’s long‑term, stable operation.
Zhengchang extends this systematic approach to the entire project delivery process. From preliminary consulting, process design, and equipment configuration, through engineering implementation, installation and commissioning, to personnel training and after-sales service, each stage is aligned with the customer’s specific production objectives. By leveraging unified project management and cross‑functional technical collaboration, information discrepancies across stages are minimized, enabling customers to enhance project execution efficiency and ensure the operational readiness and adaptability of their production lines once they are commissioned.
In response to the ongoing evolution of pet food raw materials, formulations, and product formats, Zhengchang will further strengthen technical exchanges with customers, research institutions, and industry partners, advance the research and application validation of new processes and products, and ensure that its equipment and engineering solutions better align with market demands.
This exhibition serves as an important platform for Zhengchang to gain a deeper understanding of industry needs and to strengthen technical exchanges. Moving forward, Zhengchang will continue to enhance its capabilities in process technology, equipment, digitalization, and engineering delivery, helping customers build stable, efficient, and flexible modern pet food production facilities, thereby contributing to the growth of our partners through sustained value creation.
