A wet cat snack stick is not qualified by running water through a sachet machine. The paste must arrive at the filler with its normal temperature, fibre content and consistency, then leave the nozzle without a tail that reaches the seal. The YS-65J decision therefore starts with a named recipe and finished stick drawing. Stored records disagree on the smallest fill and the supported bag width, so those limits remain open until a controlled product trial resolves them.

Define the snack as a filling material, not only a flavour

Record viscosity at the intended filling temperature, maximum particle or fibre size, oil separation, air content and how long the product may stand before it changes. A smooth salmon paste and a fibrous chicken recipe can require different outlet clearance and cutoff timing even when both are sold in 15 ml sticks. Supply enough material for warm-up, stable running, a planned pause and a restart.

Recipe condition	Likely machine risk	Evidence to retain
Smooth, low-fibre paste	Drip or stringing can mark the seal after cutoff.	Nozzle video and opened seal samples
Fibrous or chunky snack	A narrow passage can block or shear inclusions.	Largest-particle sample and rejected sticks
Oil-separating recipe	The first and last portions may not match.	Composition check across the run
Aerated product	Apparent volume can change as bubbles settle.	Individual fill results after a pause

YS-65J wet cat snack stick packaging machine — Match the machine, feed vessel and finished stick to one production recipe.

The feed vessel must protect texture and temperature

The saved product page shows a vertical material barrel and also mentions temperature control for semi-fluid products. Those are configuration clues, not proof that every delivered machine has the same vessel. Confirm the fitted barrel, outlet, heating method if required, temperature display and drain point. Heating should be justified by product flow and quality limits; unnecessary heat can change colour, aroma or viscosity.

Cutoff quality protects the transverse seal

Watch the nozzle at startup, after stable operation and immediately after a stop. A delayed drop may land on the film while the jaws close. Separate portion accuracy from cleanliness: a stick can contain the declared amount and still fail because paste is trapped in the seal. Record the number of contaminated seals, wipe frequency and the first acceptable pack after each restart.

Startup sample

Keep the first consecutive sticks and mark when fill and seal checks both pass.

Normal pause

Stop for the expected production delay, restart without special cleaning and isolate the first group.

Low barrel level

Check portion behavior near the normal refill point instead of only with a full vessel.

Largest inclusion

Confirm passage through the outlet without blockage, crushing or late release.

Bag width and corner shape need a signed drawing

The summary field lists 40-130 mm width, while the specification table lists 20-75 mm. The page also shows straight, rounded and shaped stick ends. None should be promised from a generic illustration. Approve one finished drawing with overall width, seal allowance, length, corner radius or notch, print repeat and roll direction. The former, cutter and artwork must refer to that same revision.

Vertical material barrel used with the wet snack filler — Review outlet height, drainability and access to every product-contact surface.

Fill acceptance must resolve the stored lower-limit conflict

The form summary states 1-100 ml, while the specification table states 3-100 ml. Do not average or silently choose between them. Define the commercial portion, measure individual sticks with a method suited to the recipe, and report mean, spread and rejects for startup, stable operation, pause and refill phases. The accepted result applies to the tested recipe and outlet setup, not every wet pet food.

Wet cat snack stick end and seal shape references — Use a dimensioned drawing to select the former and cutting arrangement.

Cleaning release must include hidden wet-product areas

Trace the path from barrel wall to outlet, valve or pump components, nozzle seat, former splash area and collection points. The operator should demonstrate safe emptying, removal of approved contact parts, inspection, reassembly and the first released pack. For flavour or allergen changes, define a release test rather than relying only on an exterior wipe.

Close the technical file with a recipe sheet, vessel and outlet drawing, approved film data, stick artwork, fill results and photographs of opened seals. Note which settings are operator recipes and which require mechanical change parts. This evidence lets a later factory batch be compared with the acceptance run without depending on memory or an unlabeled demonstration video.

Finished wet cat snack stick packs — Inspect print position, end seals, opening behavior and retained product samples.

Questions for a wet pet snack trial

Can water replace the real snack during acceptance?

No. Water does not reproduce fibre passage, oil separation, stringing, portion behavior or cleaning residue.

Which minimum fill is confirmed?

Neither conflicting stored value is final until the intended recipe is run with an agreed measurement method.

Are rounded or shaped stick ends standard?

The saved imagery shows options, but the delivered cutter and approved drawing must confirm the chosen shape.

What proves a clean seal?

Retain filled samples from sustained production, open the seal area and record contamination or leakage after handling.

What should be recorded after cleaning?

Record removed parts, hidden inspection points, reassembly checks and the first pack released for production.

Conclusion

Approve this project around one wet snack recipe, vessel and cutoff arrangement, signed stick drawing, fill study and cleaning release. The related pet food packaging machine range provides the product context, while the disputed minimum fill and bag width must stay outside the purchase guarantee until reconciled.

Key Features

Vertical Form-Fill-Seal (VFFS) Mechanism:
This machine uses a VFFS system to form stick-shaped sachets vertically, fill them with the liquid, and then seal the packaging. This approach saves space and improves packing efficiency.
High-Speed Operation:
Equipped with high-speed filling mechanisms, it can produce a large number of sachets per minute, optimizing productivity and reducing packing time.
Precise Dosing System:
Accurate dosing mechanisms ensure each sachet contains the exact quantity of liquid, minimizing product wastage and maintaining consistency across all sachets.
Easy Adjustment for Sachet Size and Volume:
Adjustable settings allow for different sachet lengths, widths, and fill volumes, accommodating various packaging needs for different product types.
Multi-Lane Packing:
Machines often have multiple lanes (2, 4, 6, or more), allowing multiple sachets to be filled and sealed simultaneously, increasing production rates.
Touchscreen Control Panel:
An intuitive touchscreen interface enables operators to set parameters, monitor operations, and troubleshoot with ease.
Servo Motor and PLC Control System:
Advanced PLC and servo motor controls provide smooth, precise movements and high repeatability for consistent results.
Hygienic Stainless Steel Construction:
The machine is usually constructed from stainless steel, ensuring compliance with food safety standards and easy cleaning to prevent contamination.
Anti-Leak Sealing Technology:
Special sealing technology prevents leaks and spillage, preserving the integrity of the product.
Automatic Product Feeding and Film Roll System:
Automated systems for film feeding and liquid filling streamline the entire process and reduce the need for manual intervention.

Functions

Film Roll Unwinding and Sachet Formation:
The machine pulls packaging film from a roll, shapes it into a sachet, and applies a heat seal on the vertical side.
Automatic Filling of Liquid Snacks:
Precisely measures and fills each sachet with a predetermined amount of liquid snack, suitable for cat treats.
Heat Sealing and Sachet Cutting:
The top and bottom of each sachet are heat-sealed, creating individual sachets. A cutting mechanism then separates the sachets from each other.
Date Coding and Batch Printing (Optional):
Integrates with printers to apply dates or batch codes on each sachet, aiding in product traceability and compliance.
