Concrete Cooling

Types: Block ice maker, thin ice maker, flake ice maker, and pellet ice maker. Different types of ice makers are suitable for different needs.

Working Principle: Ice cubes are usually formed by cooling water at a specific temperature. The ice making process may use direct refrigeration or indirect refrigeration.

Types of ice:

• Block ice: Usually used for long-term storage and transportation, in the form of large ice cubes.
• Crushed ice: Used to cool food and drinks, in the form of small particles.
• Flake ice: Thin flakes, easier to blend and pack, widely used to preserve seafood and vegetables.
• Pellet ice: In the form of small particles, usually used for drinks and cocktails.

The selection of these equipment and technologies depends on the specific production needs, site restrictions and expected ice product quality. In the ice industry, effective management and maintenance of equipment is also crucial.
