What parts does the flake ice machine consist of? What are the advantages?

Due to the flat shape of flake ice, it has a larger surface area than other shapes of ice with the same weight. The larger the contact surface area, the better the cooling effect. The production cost of flake ice is very economical. It only needs about tens of kilowatt-hours of electricity to refrigerate water at 16 degrees Celsius into 1 ton of flake ice. The following editor will introduce to you what parts the flake ice machine consists of? What are the advantages of content, welcome to read!

What parts does the flake ice machine consist of?

The structural principle of the flake ice machine mainly includes four parts:

1. Evaporator The evaporator is where ice flakes are generated. The refrigerant in the refrigeration system exchanges heat with the water through the inner wall of the evaporator and absorbs a large amount of heat, so that the water flowing through the inner wall of the evaporator is quickly cooled to the freezing point and freezes instantly.

2. The water supply circulation device of the water supply circulation device includes a water tank, a pump, a float valve, a water supply pipe, a water distribution tray, a water receiving tray, a diversion tank and a flow switch. Concrete water flow route is: the water flow that connects from external water source enters water tank, and the water level in the water tank is controlled by float valve in the water tank. The water flow is led to the upper end cover of the ice maker through the water tank pump along the pipeline, and enters the water diffuser from the top, evenly distributes the water to each water diffuser, and evenly sprinkles the water on the evaporator from the water outlet at the lower part of the water diffuser to form an ice film. The water level of the diffuser tray can be controlled by adjusting the water flow regulating valve to ensure that the evaporator is fully frozen; the unfrozen water on the inner wall falls on the water receiving tray, flows into the diversion tank, and enters the water tank for recirculation. A flow switch or a water tank level sensor is used to detect whether the water supply to the equipment is normal.

3. The low-speed rotation of the spindle in the spindle drive part is driven by a reducer with a motor.

4. The ice scraping part is fixed by the bracket protruding from the upper and lower ends of the main shaft. The ice scraper cuts the ice layer along the inner wall of the evaporator, and peels a certain thickness of ice off the inner wall to form ice flakes of a certain uniform shape, which fall from the ice outlet of the ice maker. . There are two types of ice scrapers, one is spiral ice blades, the other is rake ice blades, which can satisfy the function of scraping (peeling) ice, and the corresponding ice machines have different structures.

What are the advantages of flake ice machines?

With the development of society and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the ice industry is becoming more and more extensive, and the quality requirements for ice are also getting higher and higher. Flake ice machines have been widely used in production, food, supermarkets, dairy products, medicine, chemistry, vegetable preservation and transportation, marine fishing and other industries. The requirements for high performance, low failure rate, and sanitation of ice machines are becoming more and more urgent. In view of the above requirements, compared with traditional ice bricks and snowflake ice, flake ice machine has the following advantages: ice flakes are dry, not easy to agglomerate, good fluidity, hygiene, large ice contact area, not easy to damage fresh-keeping products, etc. The product of choice for type ice.

It has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, fast ice making, dry and clean ice flakes, beautiful shape, not easy to form lumps, simple and convenient use, and energy saving. The ice machine is made of stainless steel and anti-corrosion alloy aluminum, and its service life can reach more than 10 years. The whole process is intelligently controlled and does not require human operation.
