Process flow of 2 t/h cat litter production line in Canada

Select RICHI's characteristic bentonite production technology. The raw materials and caustic soda are crushed, squeezed, and stirred evenly in a semi-dry state to form a granular mixture. A small amount of water is added to form a semi-dry granular material. After grinding and dividing, Cat litter is produced through sieving, granulating, drying and other processes.

  1. Pelleting section: After crushing and grinding the raw materials, add a small amount of water. The ratio of water to bentonite raw materials is 1:12.5, and then send them to the cat litter pellet machine for granulation.
  2. Drying link: After the granulation is completed, the materials are sent to the dryer through a belt conveyor for drying. The drying heat source is the heat generated by the coal-fired hot air stove to directly heat the materials.
  3. Finished product packaging and storage: After drying, the products are screened and selected, bagged, weighed, sealed, and stored in storage.

The main entrance and exit of the 2 t/h cat litter production line in Canada project factory is located in the northwest corner of the site, close to rural roads, which facilitates material transportation.

The production workshop is located on the north side of the factory area, and the office area is arranged on the west side of the factory area, located in the crosswind direction of the production area. To the south of the production workshop and to the east of the office area are the raw soil drying grounds.

What should you pay attention to if you want to invest in a cat litter production line in Canada?

  1. The most important point: Is there a market for cat litter? The first consideration when investing is the rate of return. If there is no market in your area, the current rate of return is zero!
  2. Venue. The manual batching cat litter production line in Canada requires a minimum workshop height of about 6m, and the fully automatic batching tofu cat litter production line requires about 17m, so the height requirements of the factory are higher.
    If you do not have a factory with a suitable height, the designer can customize it according to your actual site. Design, but the cost of the entire set of equipment will increase, and the process will also change. Therefore, finding a suitable venue and a professional design will save you a lot of money.
    Finding designs from several companies for comparison will save you a lot of money. With more ideas, you can also compare with a more professional company. In this way, you will have fewer problems in the later production process.
  3. Personnel. A cat litter production line requires at least 4 production participants. The number of personnel will increase depending on the process. Because the labor costs in each region are different, it can be calculated based on the local labor costs.
    The entire cat litter production line in Canada requires a person who understands mechanics to operate the cat litter pellets granulator. Since the granulator is the core equipment, it has certain technical difficulties. It will be equipped with a person who understands mechanics and then the manufacturer will provide systematic training. Make your later mass production more worry-free.
  4. Equipment. At present, most entrepreneurs who invest in cat litter production lines have not been exposed to mechanical production equipment and do not know much about mechanical equipment. Therefore, how to distinguish an equipment with good quality and a company with good after-sales service is very critical.
    Distinguishing method:
    • The company’s development history. A company that has been operating for decades believes that its products will not be too bad;
    • The installed capacity in the market, whether there is a relatively large output, and a relatively large number of installed cases are important indicators to measure the strength of a company.
    • For the size of the company, a production line that costs tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars is definitely not a project that can be completed by more than a dozen people. From site survey → process design → drawing design → equipment production → equipment installation → equipment debugging, it will definitely require a very professional team can complete it.
  5. Recipe. Cat litter formulas are generally available from manufacturers. It is recommended that the equipment manufacturer conduct a test run to see if the formula is authentic, and then prepare it according to your own needs later. This point is not very critical. There are professional formula makers on the market, so it is not difficult.
  6. Craftsmanship. Cat litter making machines and processes are different for each manufacturer. Find several manufacturers and professional cat litter practitioners, make horizontal comparisons, and connect and adjust with the equipment manufacturers. This will avoid some minor problems that occur during production.
  7. Budget. Back to square one, what is your investment budget? What is your daily production requirement? Of course, the greater the output, the higher the amount of equipment investment. Make a measurement based on your own situation and spend the most economical money to achieve your best results. This also requires equipment manufacturers to put effort into equipment selection.
  8. Raw materials. Are there any ingredients for cat litter in your local area? If there is, the cost will be better controlled, and it is also important to find the origin of raw materials in advance.

If you also want to invest in building a cat litter production line in Canada, first clearly analyze your own advantages and disadvantages, choose a production line that suits you based on your own market share, find a professional equipment factory, and find a professional practitioner to serve as a consultant. The next thing is to make money!
