The thickness of the flake ice produced by the flake ice machine is mostly between 1.0 mm-2.5 mm, the diameter is about 12mm-45mm, and the temperature of the flake ice is -5 ℃ to -7℃ . The flake ice produced are low in temperature, light in weight, dry, and free of powder. Keep the refrigerated product fresh without dehydration, so that it can maintain the original natural color. At the same time, this flake ice is smooth, without edges and corners, and will not scratch the skin of the refrigerated product, ensuring the original appearance and flavor of the refrigerated product. It is very popular among food manufacturers and merchants. As for the flake ice, I have summarized the following uses for reference by colleagues.
1. In major supermarkets and stores, we can see scaly flake ice. Because the many fresh ingredients there need to be kept fresh in a suitable low temperature and humid environment. Fresh ingredients are always the basic need and guarantee of human health.
2. Poultry slaughter industry
In the poultry slaughtering industry, in order to ensure the quality and appearance of poultry meat, the temperature of the meat must be controlled (preferably 0 to 4 degrees Celsius) before the final step of slaughter is completed, and the temperature of the meat must be controlled. While washing the meat, make it cool down to a suitable temperature. The traditional chiller can't meet this requirement well. Because the flake ice melt quickly and cool down quickly, the flake ice machine has become the first choice for cold water supporting equipment in the poultry slaughter industry.
3. Meat processing industry
Flake ice have been widely used in the meat processing industry, and no modern meat processing company can lack them. For example, (1) flake ice need to be added when using a tumbler without a refrigeration device. The high temperature generated by the friction between the rotating tumbling barrel and the ingredients will promote the growth of bacteria and change the color and taste of the meat. (2) When using the cutter machine, the meat will inevitably heat up during the high-speed cut process. Elevated temperature will destroy protein and cause degreasing (melting of fat). As a result, sausages produced with this filling have excessive bacteria, dull color, hard taste, and greasy. It can be seen that the flake ice are inseparable when the material is cut. (3) The saline injecting machine is equipped with a saline preparation device. The injected saline also requires low-temperature saline to ensure the freshness of the product. The flake ice are easily and evenly mixed with cooling materials such as sausage fillings and brine. Due to the large surface area of the flake ice, it can have a rapid and positive impact on the cooled raw materials, which is equivalent to that the flake ice maker helps manufacturers improve the hygiene standards of their products.
4. Marine fisheries
It is widely used in marine fisheries. The refrigeration, transportation, processing and display of fresh seafood are indispensable. No matter how the mechanical refrigeration is developed, due to the unique characteristics of salt-containing flake ice, there is still no ideal substitute. Things can replace it. Flake ice can make seafood fresh, moist and at the right temperature. There is no need to use a temperature monitor. Flake ice are a good cold storage body, and it is a freezing system with high practicability and economy. Other refrigeration systems can only provide cold temperatures, but cannot provide a humid environment, and cause seafood to air dry and dehydrate. The flake ice close to 0℃ can provide a cooling environment, it will not damage or freeze the surface of the fish, can keep the fish in an ideal wet state, avoid dehydration and give it a long time of freshness, melted ice water can be rinsed The surface of the fish removes bacteria and peculiar smells discharged from the fish to achieve an ideal preservation effect.
Compared with other shapes of ice, flake ice are small, easy to melt, cool quickly, and do not require secondary crushing, so they are the most convenient and practical. The flake ice are flat in shape, and the minimum surface area of 1 ton flake ice can reach 1600 square meters. It has a larger surface area than other ice products of the same weight in various shapes. The larger the contact surface area with the required refrigerated products, the more uniform the cooling effect, the better.
In view of the above advantages, flake ice maker has gradually replaced traditional salt water ice (large ice), chillers and other cooling equipment in many industries since its introduction for more than 20 years, and has become the first choice for cooling in many industries. While providing customers with meat processing equipment, EFu Corp. often helps customers purchase the most cost-effective scale ice machine in China. Various output options are available.
