Precision cutting for premium pet food production
FAM STUMABO provides advanced cutting solutions to ensure quality and efficiency in pet food manufacturing.
As the pet food market continues to premiumize, processors face a clear challenge: combining high production efficiency with consistent product appearance, texture and safety. Whether for wet food, freeze-dried snacks or treats, cutting quality has become a decisive factor.
A long-term technology partner
This is where FAM STUMABO positions itself as a long-term technology partner to the pet food industry. With more than 40 years of experience in industrial food cutting, FAM STUMABO develops and manufactures high-capacity cutting machines and precision blades for pet food applications worldwide.
The company supports both startups and established producers, delivering solutions that handle a wide range of raw materials, formats and processing conditions.
Pet food cutting is never generic. Product temperature, texture, shape and condition all influence the final result. FAM STUMABO designs its machines around these variables, enabling precise slicing, dicing and shredding of raw, cooked, chilled or frozen ingredients.
Typical applications include organ meats such as liver, lung and heart, plus poultry, fish, extruded proteins and jerky-style treats. The result is clean, uniform cuts with minimal waste and strong visual appeal, even at high throughputs.
Proven cutting technologies
A key differentiator lies in the company’s deep application knowledge. FAM STUMABO combines produce expertise, machine design and in-house blade manufacturing to tailor each solution to the customer’s product and process. Blade geometry and cutting strength are carefully selected to preserve structure, reduce fines and maximize yield: an essential advantage in premium pet food, where appearance directly influences perceived quality.
In practice, this approach translates into a focused portfolio of proven cutting technologies. The Yuran Hytec 300, a belt-fed dicer, is widely used for producing pulled-look shreds, chunks and extruded protein pieces with a natural appearance. For frozen organ meats and high-capacity dicing, processors rely on the CMD.2 drum dicer, designed for continuous operation and clean, uniform cuts. The Volantis V-belt slicer delivers precise portioning of elongated products such as sticks and treats, with minimal waste.
Built for food safety
Hygiene and food safety are embedded in every design. All equipment adheres to uncompromising sanitary design principles, with open construction that allows for fast, thorough cleaning and safe access for operators and maintenance teams.
Robust components and simplified mechanics ensure long service life, low maintenance costs and minimal downtime in high-volume operations.
