Weighing machines, Bagging systems, Packaging machines, Palletisers and Wrappers for Pet Food

Complete pet food packaging systems

Keep your pet food line running, flexible, and ready to scale.

MF TECNO engineers complete dry pet food packaging systems: from product handling and weighing to bagging, case packing, palletizing, and wrapping—around your output, package mix, labor requirements, and available floor space.

Built around plant performance

Your packaging equipment should remove bottlenecks, not create them.

The right pet food packaging line must support production continuity, consistent package quality, fast changeovers, safe access, and dependable downstream handling.

Uptime

Keep production moving

Build the line as one coordinated system so upstream and downstream equipment operate around the same production target.

Changeovers

Handle more SKUs

Configure the equipment around your bag sizes, recipes, package styles, and planned product changes.

Labor

Automate repetitive handling

Reduce manual bag handling, case loading, pallet building, and stretch wrapping at the end of the line.

Package quality

Protect every finished bag

Control filling, bag movement, sealing, case packing, and palletizing to support a repeatable finished package.

Integrated MF TECNO secondary packaging system for pet food
One integrated system

One partner from product handling to finished pallet.

A packaging line performs as a system, not as a collection of separate machines. Feed consistency, weighing, bag movement, sealing, case packing, palletizing, and wrapping must work at compatible rates.

MF TECNO develops turnkey projects covering the complete dry pet food packaging process, with one engineering team coordinating the layout, machine interfaces, controls, and end-of-line flow.

This reduces coordination between multiple equipment vendors and gives your plant one point of contact for the complete line.

Complete line integration

From dry product to shipment-ready pallet.

Select only the equipment your process requires or build a complete turnkey line under one automation and project structure.

01

Product handling

Conveying and feeding systems maintain controlled product flow toward the weighing equipment.

02

Weighing

The dosing system is selected around kibble characteristics, target weight, speed, and accuracy.

03

Bagging

Premade pouch, open-mouth, or VFFS equipment packages the selected retail or bulk format.

04

Case packing

Finished packages can be loaded into cases or grouped into bundles before palletizing.

05

Palletizing

Automatic systems build repeatable pallet patterns for bags, bundles, or cases.

06

Wrapping

Completed loads are stabilized for internal handling, warehousing, and shipment.

Packaging formats

From premium stand-up pouches to 55 lb bags.

Configure the line around the package your brand and distribution channel require, whether you run small retail pouches, medium bags, or large wholesale formats.

Small retail formats

Premium pouches and smaller bags

Premade pouch and VFFS solutions support retail-oriented packaging where shelf presence, package consistency, and SKU flexibility are important.

  • Doypack and stand-up pouch formats
  • Formats up to approximately 11 lb
  • Premade pouch or roll-stock configurations
  • Integration with case packing and bundling
  • Recipe-based format management options

Medium and large formats

Larger retail and wholesale bags

Open-mouth and VFFS bagging systems support higher-capacity packages and preformed bags used for larger retail, club-store, breeder, and wholesale applications.

  • Formats up to approximately 55 lb
  • Flat-bottom, four-corner-seal, and pillow bags
  • Premade bag and roll-stock solutions
  • Controlled bag filling and closing
  • Direct integration with palletizing
Equipment selection

Match the machine to your bag, output, and operating model.

Final production rates depend on product behavior, package dimensions, film or bag material, closing system, and complete line configuration.

Equipment Packaging method Typical formats Published capability
Pouch 3000 Premade pouches Doypack and stand-up pouches Up to 11 lb and 3,000 pouches/hour
MF 52 Vertical form-fill-seal Small and medium roll-stock bags Configured around the selected package and product
IABA 1000 Automatic open-mouth bagging Medium and large preformed bags Up to 55 lb and 1,000 bags/hour
MF 60 Vertical form-fill-seal Medium and large roll-stock bags Configured for larger package formats
Package integrity

Control weighing, filling and sealing as one process.

The correct bagging solution must account for kibble size, product flow, trapped air, package material, seal area, and the way the finished bag will be handled downstream.

MF TECNO systems can be configured for PE, PET, laminated structures, and other tested packaging materials, with vibration or de-aeration devices selected according to the application.

Controlled product settling Vibration and product-settling devices can help stabilize the contents before final closing.
Material-specific sealing The sealing configuration is selected around the package material and required closure.
Downstream-ready packages Bag geometry and handling are coordinated with case packing, conveyors, palletizing, and wrapping.

Accessible automated pet food packaging and case packing equipment
Sanitation and access

Design the line for inspection, cleaning, and maintenance access.

Packaging equipment must allow operators and maintenance teams to inspect product-contact areas, access change parts, and perform scheduled cleaning without unnecessary complexity.

MF TECNO can provide AISI 304 stainless-steel configurations and machine layouts developed to reduce inaccessible areas around the product path.

Accessible product-contact areas Equipment access is considered during machine and line layout development.
Stainless-steel configurations Construction materials are selected according to hygiene, product, and operating requirements.
Maintenance-conscious layouts Operator access, guarding, conveyors, and service areas are evaluated as part of the complete line.
End-of-line automation

Reduce manual handling after the bagger.

Extend automation beyond primary packaging to protect output, improve pallet consistency, and reduce repetitive material handling.

Secondary packaging

Case packing and bundling

Load finished pouches or smaller bags into cases, or group them into bundles before palletizing.

  • Top-load case packing
  • Wrap-around case packing
  • Shrink-wrapped bundles
  • Integrated product collating
Palletizing

Repeatable pallet patterns

Automatically palletize bags, cases, or bundles using the gripping and palletizing technology appropriate for the load.

  • Cartesian palletizers
  • Robotic palletizers
  • High-level palletizing
  • Empty and full pallet handling
Load stabilization

Automatic pallet wrapping

Complete the line with stretch-wrapping equipment selected around pallet rate, load stability, and facility flow.

  • Rotating-arm wrappers
  • Turntable wrappers
  • Automatic film application
  • Conveyor integration

Build the line around your real production constraints.

Package mix, floor space, target output, labor availability, sanitation access, downstream logistics, and planned expansion are evaluated together—not one machine at a time.

Beyond packaging

Connect packaging with upstream production and storage.

Through the Massini Industries Group and the integration with MIAL, projects can also include upstream raw-material handling, storage, conveying, and production-process equipment.

This broader engineering scope can help manufacturers coordinate material flow from ingredient handling through final packaging and pallet preparation.
