Ice Machines

Ice Machines come in three main categories; Ice Crushers, Ice Makers and Ice Flakers.
Ice Crushers can be electric or hand operated with a handle, most commercial crushers will be electric to handle the volume of ice needed. They are simple to use, just place ice cubes in the top and retreive the crushed ice from the holding area. These products can be modular units or freestanding, with ice production rates varying respecitvely. It is very important to consider how much ice you will need to produce. Ice Flakers are a popular choice for health care establishments but also for fresh fish and meat counters. The ammount of ice needed will affect the storage bin required. They can be integrated or modular. Another important factor to consider is the ambient temperature at which your unit will be operating, as some will not work properly if it is too cold. If the machine has a paddle system however, the water inside the unit will be kept warmer before being made in to ice, meaning it will work at much lower temperatures than non-paddle system units.
