Commercial

A Commercial Ice Machine is a device used for the purpose of making ice in large quantity. An ice maker or ice machine or ice generator may mean the same and usually refers to the stand alone appliance.

John Gorrie was awarded US patent 8080 in the year 1851 for an ice machine, subsequently Alexander Twining received an US patent in 1853 and James Harrison of Australia received a patent in the year 1855 for an ice maker.

Commercial Ice Machines use moving water to drastically improve ice quality. Water is made to run through a system downwards on a surface area that maintains a constant temperature of 32F. The reason being, pure water freezes at a temperature within this range only.

On the other hand, impure water will need much lower temperature to freeze.The horizontal evaporator ice machines have solids removed from it unto an extent of 98% thus forming a very hard and virtually pure, crystal ice. The ice is quite softer in the vertical evaporators, given its individual ice cube cells.

On reaching the required thickness, the ice sheet is slid into a wire mesh. The sheer weight of the ice sheet cuts into the desired shapes, and then falls into the storage containers. Commercial Ice Machines has the capacity to churn out various sizes of ice such as flakers, crushed ice , ice cubes, octagon and tube shaped.

The practical use of ice is everywhere, from lunch rooms to bars to nightclubs to hospitals to homes. Given the summer and the not-so-winter seasons, ice becomes the life savior!

Hence the need arises for Commercial Ice Machines producing large quantity of ice.

The food and beverage industries can survive only with the existence of such commercial ice machines.
The one name that changed the way ice was known to the world was the Vogt.

In 1937, he came up with the world’s first automatic ice making machine. The world of ice making was revolutionized with the introduction of tube ice making. Prior to this, ice was made in block form.

Vogt designed the unique Tube-Ice machine to freeze water in vertical tubes.

The modern refrigerators today come with an inbuilt ice maker. Stand-alone ice maker units are also known by the same terminology that is the ice machines.

There is the energy quotient that is to be specifically considered, when it comes to closing in on a decision to purchase an ice maker. Water-cooled models take precedence over air-cooled models. The benefit of owning a water-cooled model or even a remote condensing unit is that the heat generated in the process of ice making is discharged outside of the factory unit.

This ensures that overhead expenses such as the air conditioning are saved significantly. Furthermore, self cleaning models may use 3 to 4 times the actual usage of water as compared to other manual models, but they save on labour costs considerably.

It is interesting to note that water-cooled ice making machines use a large quantity of condensed water, but the same can be utilized by way of recycling with the help of a cooling tower, as compared to a one-pass system.

At an average, the cost of water corresponds only to a maximum of 30% of the electricity cost, in ice making.
