Block ice machine is a commonly used food processing equipment which can condense the condensate produced during food processing into ice cubes and store and use them conveniently. Direct cooling block ice machine is one type of block ice machine, which adopts the direct cooling method to make ice, compared with the traditional indirect cooling method, the ice making efficiency is higher and the ice making quality is better.
The following is a document on "Ice Block Machine - Direct Cooling Block Ice Machine", including the working principle, characteristics, advantages and application scenarios of the direct cooling block ice machine.
Working Principle
The working principle of direct cooling block ice machine is similar to that of traditional indirect cooling, which is to cool and condense the condensate produced during food processing into ice by circulating water flow. The difference is that the direct cooling block ice machine adopts the direct cooling method to make ice without intermediate medium, which greatly improves the efficiency and quality of ice making.
Specifically, the process of making ice in a direct cooling block ice machine includes the following steps:
1. the water stream passes through a filter to remove impurities and contaminants.
2. the water flow into the ice-making disc, after circulation and cooling, the water temperature drops to below 0 ℃, the ice nuclei in the water begin to crystallise.
3. Ice nuclei in the water continue to diffuse and collision, and ultimately the formation of uniform size, moderate hardness of the ice cube. 4.
4. Ice cubes are dislodged from the ice-making disc and discharged through the fan.
Characteristics
Direct cooling block ice machine has the following significant features compared with the traditional indirect cooling method:
1. Higher ice-making efficiency: direct cooling block ice machine adopts the direct cooling method to make ice, without the help of intermediate media, thus avoiding the indirect cooling method of energy loss and low ice-making efficiency.
2. Better ice-making quality: direct cooling block ice machine can control the water temperature in the ice-making tray below 0℃, thus making the ice-making process more stable and controllable, and better ice-making quality.
3. Lower maintenance cost: direct cooling block ice machine does not need additional ice-making medium, the maintenance cost is relatively low.
III. Advantages
Direct cooling block ice machine has the following advantages over the traditional indirect cooling method:
1. Higher ice-making efficiency: the direct cooling method can greatly improve the ice-making efficiency and save the time and cost of ice-making.
2. better ice quality: direct cooling block ice machine can control the water temperature in the ice tray below 0 ℃, the ice making process is more stable and controllable, better ice quality.
3. Lower maintenance cost: direct cooling block ice machine does not need additional ice-making medium, the maintenance cost is relatively low.
Application Scene
The direct cooling block ice machine is suitable for various types of food processing and storage places, such as:
1. Catering industry: Direct cooling block ice machine can provide stable and efficient ice supply for catering industry to ensure the quality and safety of food.
2. Supermarkets and shopping malls: The direct cooling block ice machine can provide supermarkets and shopping malls with large quantities of fresh ice, which is convenient for food storage and display.
3. laboratories and medical institutions: direct cooling block ice machine can provide laboratories and medical institutions with a stable and efficient supply of ice to ensure the safety and effectiveness of experiments and treatments.
To sum up, direct cooling block ice machine is a kind of efficient and reliable ice making equipment with wide application prospect and market potential.
With the progress of modernisation and the continuous development of food processing industry, block ice machine has become an indispensable part of food processing industry. As a type of block ice machine, the direct cooling block ice machine has been gradually recognised and accepted by the market for its superior ice making efficiency and ice making quality.
The catering industry is undoubtedly the most important part of the application scenarios of direct cooling block ice machine. As the catering industry has very high requirements for the freshness and quality of food, the application of block ice machines has become a standard in the catering industry. Through the ice-making process of direct cooling block ice machine, food processing enterprises can produce fresher, healthier and safer food, which improves their brand image and market competitiveness.
In addition to the catering industry, the application of direct cooling block ice machines in other industries is also becoming more and more widespread. For example, supermarkets and shopping malls can provide large quantities of fresh ice through direct cooling block ice machines to provide customers with a better shopping experience. And in laboratories and medical institutions, direct-cooled block ice machines have also become essential equipment, providing a stable and efficient supply of ice for experiments and treatments.
With the continuous development of technology and application, the ice-making efficiency and quality of direct-cooled block ice machine will be further improved. In the future, the direct cooling block ice machine will become an indispensable part of the food processing industry, providing people with fresher, healthier and safer food.
