IndonesiaFlaked ice machine(also called flaker ice machines) have revolutionized cooling technology. Unlike traditional ice cubes, these thin, dry ice flakes (1.0-2.5 mm thick, 12-45 mm wide) have no sharp edges and won’t pierce frozen objects. They can get into the gaps between the objects being cooled, and their high surface area ensures rapid cooling. Here’s why industries around the world trust flake ice:
- Flat and easy to stick to: sticks to the surface without crushing the product.
- Energy saving: 30% energy saving compared to standard ice cubes.
- Versatile: suitable for extreme environments from fishing boats to desert construction sites
What Industries Need Flaked Ice Machine?
Seafood and fishing
Reasons for flaked ice machine: Fish caught without processing can easily go bad
Solution: Sprinkling flake ice on fish can quickly reduce the surface temperature of the fish, prolonging its shelf life and ensuring its freshness. In addition, the seawater flake ice machine can directly use seawater to make ice, which can save fresh water costs and improve the space utilization rate on board.
Concrete and construction
Reasons for needing a flaked ice machine: The external temperature and the extremely high concentration of substances when mixing concrete will destroy the concrete mixture
Solution: Mixing flake ice with water and adding it to the concrete mixing can effectively reduce the temperature and prevent it from cracking. The flake ice has a large contact area and the cooling effect is faster and more obvious.
Food processing
Reasons for needing a flake ice machine: Meat and vegetables have a shorter shelf life due to heating during processing. If they cannot be processed in a short time, they are easy to deteriorate.
Solution: After flake ice is mixed with food, it can quickly cool the food and inhibit the growth of bacteria. Our flake ice machine is CE certified and meets food safety regulations and can safely contact food.
Types Of Flaked Ice Machine
Home flake ice machines: Improve the quality of daily life
1.Home bars and entertainment venues
Use slow-melting flake ice to make bar-quality cocktails.
Models like the Scotsman home flake ice machine can be placed under the counter and can make up to 20 kg of ice per day.
2.Meal preparation and preservation
Keep farmers market produce fresh for days.
Use portable coolers to spread flake ice over seafood.
Commercial flake ice machines
From supermarkets to construction sites, businesses rely on commercial flake ice machines to boost profits:
1.Supermarkets and seafood counters
Display salmon and lobsters on flake ice—attract customers and reduce spoilage.
Look for hygienic stainless steel models with self-cleaning features.
2.Construction sites:
Cool concrete mix in hot climates.
Industrial flake ice machines, such as the PE 3 Ton Per 24h Flake Ice Machine, with a daily output of 3 tons, are perfect for small and medium-sized construction sites and can withstand dust and expected vibrations.
Industrial flake ice machines: heavy-duty cooling solutions
1.Cold chain preservation hub for large supermarkets
10-ton flake ice machines provide 24/7 freshness in supermarket chains’ fresh produce sections:
-5°C flake ice covers seafood/meat shelves, inhibits bacterial growth, and reduces damage by 18%.
Walmart’s East China warehouse is equipped with a 15-ton unit, which saves 120,000 yuan in electricity bills per store each year, and the complaint rate of fresh ice products has dropped by 95%.
2.Urban Water Treatment Plants
Large-scale flake ice machines (10+ tons/day) play a vital role in municipal water systems during heatwaves. By injecting ultra-thin ice flakes into reservoirs, water temperatures drop rapidly, inhibiting algae growth and reducing chemical treatment needs. This method ensures safer drinking water while cutting energy costs by 30% compared to traditional cooling towers.
How To Choose A Suitable Flaked ice machine
1. Match output according to demand
- Home use: 15-40 kg/day (e.g. Scotsman Home Flake Ice Machine).
- Small business: 1-3 tons/day (e.g. PE 3 Ton Per 24h Flake Ice Machine).
- Industry: 10-50+ tons/day (e.g. Pecold Large Water Cooling Flake Ice Machine).
2. Prioritize key features
- Durability: Titanium evaporator resists corrosion in saltwater environments.
- Certifications: CE (EU), FDA (US), and ISO (global safety standards).
- Smart control: One-touch ice making and automatic stop alarm in case of failure, etc.
