How to produce bentonite cat litter pellets

Cat litter is a must-have item for every cat family, and bentonite cat litter is very popular in the market. Bentonite cat litter has many advantages, such as strong water absorption, odorlessness, easy of cleaning, etc., so the production of bentonite cat litter particles is a topic that has attracted much attention.

Advantages of Bentonite Cat Litter

Benchtonite cat litter is made of natural bentonite, so it has good water absorption properties. This allows bentonite cat litter to quickly absorb urine and form lumps for easy cleaning. In addition, bentonite itself is odorless and more friendly to cats' health. Overall, bentonite cat litter is a high-performance, environmentally friendly and easy-to-use choice.

Bentonite cat litter particles are usually spherical in shape with a diameter of about 2-5 mm. This form is conducive to improving the water absorption performance of cat litter and avoiding the difficulty of forming lumps due to the large sand particles.

In addition to spherical cat litter, columnar tofu cat litter is also a common type of cat litter. Of course, whether it is spherical or cylindrical, the choice of particle shape depends on the difficulty of scooping and the ability of cat litter to effectively agglomerate.

Production process of bentonite cat litter granules

The production process of bentonite cat litter granules generally includes steps such as raw material preparation, uniform mixing, granulation molding, and drying.

First, the required bentonite raw materials are screened, cleaned, and processed to ensure the quality of the raw materials. Then the prepared raw materials are evenly mixed with other additives to ensure the stability of the quality of the final product. Next, the mixed raw materials are pressed into spherical/or cylindrical cat litter granules through a granulator. Finally, the granules are dried to reach the ideal moisture content and can be packaged and sold.

Production Equipment

A series of equipment is required to produce bentonite cat litter particles, mainly including mixers, granulators, dryers, etc. The mixer is used to fully mix the raw materials to ensure the uniformity of the particles; the granulator is used to press the mixed raw materials into particles; and the dryer is used to remove moisture from the particles to ensure the quality of the product. In order to ensure the quality of the particles, a screening process is usually added to remove dust from the finished cat litter particles to create a more comfortable environment for pets. With the help of packaging machines, palletizers and other related equipment, an automated cat litter production line can be realized. Reduce labor costs and improve production efficiency.

The process of producing bentonite cat litter particles is not complicated, but each step needs to be strictly controlled to ensure the quality and performance of the final product. With the right equipment and process, it is not difficult to produce high-quality bentonite cat litter particles.
