Nowadays, the use of ice machine is becoming wider and wider, For example, this type of ice maker is being popular used in hotels, restaurant, coffee shop, fast food restaurant etc. But do you really have a conscious perception about what ice making machine is and do you know the working principles of the ice machine?
Ice maker is a kind of ice refrigeration machinery. Water should first be put into evaporimeter of the machine, then after evaporation, the generated steam would be delivered to refrigerating system and would cool into ice with the help of refrigerant.
At the outset, let's look at the first question. Ice can be sorted into different types according to different sorting techniques. In accordance with ice shapes, ice machines can be divided into tube ice machine, block ice machine, flake ice machine, plate ice machine, particle ice machine. While according to ice functions, the ice makers could be grouped into ice machines for edible use and machines for industrial use. Generally speaking, the ice made by tube and particle ice making machine is usually for edible use, while ice made by other machines is for industrial use.
A lot of people really want to know the working principles of ice machines, they are always wondering how they can change water into ice so easily? Now, let's discover the secret together.
First of all, with the help of water pump, the chilled water in the storage tank circulates continually in the plates and boxes of the ice maker.
Then after a series sequence, inspiration- compress- exhaust- condensation- throttle- low temperature vaporization (the water is always evaporated at low temperature: -10-18), chilled water which is in the 0water continue to condense into ice gradually on lower temperature evaporimeter surface. When ice condenses to a certain thickness level, or you can say when refrigerant temperature comes to the setting temperature, another circulation will begin again. From above articles, you may now generally get the working principle of ice making machine.
