Is there any difference between an industrial flake ice machine and an ice machine, and what parts are they composed of?

In recent years, with the continuous introduction of cold chain technology and the gradual improvement of cold chain facilities, the importance of cold chain circulation of fresh agricultural products has been highlighted. There are many types of ice machines, including industrial flake ice machines. Everyone will definitely ask, is there any difference between an industrial flake ice machine and an ice machine? What parts does the flake ice machine consist of?

Of course, there will be differences between industrial flake ice machines and ice machines. In fact, flake ice machines are a type of ice machine. Different ice machines have their advantages. Which one to choose depends on the industry. The ice machine you need. The flake ice machine mainly consists of four parts: condenser, compressor, evaporator and expansion valve. What function do they each have?
1. Expansion valve: installed between the liquid storage tank and the evaporator, it is the cut-off point between the high-pressure area and the low-pressure area in the system, and its function is to throttle the high-pressure liquid to the low-pressure liquid.
2. Condenser: In the refrigeration process, the condenser plays the role of heat energy output and condensed refrigerant. After the high-pressure superheated steam discharged from the refrigeration compressor enters the condenser, all the heat absorbed during the working process is transferred to the surrounding medium , including the heat absorbed from the evaporator and refrigeration compressor and the condensation of high-pressure superheated steam back to liquid in the pipeline.
3. Evaporator: The evaporator of the ice cover machine is called an ice bucket, water enters the evaporator spray pipe and disperses the water evenly on the inner wall of the evaporator to form a water film, the water film and the refrigerant in the evaporator channel After heat exchange, the temperature drops rapidly, and a thin ice layer is formed on the inner wall of the evaporator. Under the pressure of the ice blade, the film breaks into ice flakes and falls into the ice storage.
4. Compressor: It plays the role of compressing and transporting refrigerant gas in the refrigeration system, that is, the low-pressure and low-temperature gas generated in the evaporator is sucked back, and then compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure gas and sent to the condenser. The central part of the system is also the power source of refrigerant compression. Its function is to input electrical energy into mechanical energy, inhale, compress and transfer refrigerant vapor, and drive the cycle.

According to the water source, the flake ice machine can be divided into fresh water flake ice machine and seawater flake ice machine. Generally, it is an industrial ice machine. A large-scale refrigeration facility, food quick-freezing, concrete cooling, etc. It can keep seafood in an ideal moist state, prevent seafood from deteriorating and rotting, and prevent dehydration and freezing of aquatic products. The melted ice water can also wash the surface of the seafood, remove the bacteria and peculiar smell discharged from the seafood, and achieve the ideal fresh-keeping effect. Therefore, a large amount of ice is also used in the fishing, storage, transportation and processing of marine fisheries.
