What Is The Ultimate Flake Ice Machine for Industrial Refrigeration and Why It Meets Cooling Needs?

In many industries that rely on rapid and uniform cooling—whether it’s the mixing and stirring of materials in food processing plants or the immediate preservation of seafood on deep-sea fishing vessels—companies often face a core operational pain point: how to quickly obtain large quantities of safe ice that can fully contact the materials without causing damage? Traditional block ice means you’re crushing it separately—inefficient, messy, and inviting contamination. The irregular pieces can scratch product surfaces. Regular ice-making equipment? It struggles in harsh environments. Try dealing with high salinity, crazy humidity, and constant rough seas. Most equipment just can’t handle it.

Focusun flake ice machines come from over 80 years of German refrigeration technology expertise. They’re built specifically for these efficient, reliable, scenario-adaptive cooling needs. This isn’t just about making ice—it’s about providing a cooling medium that integrates seamlessly into your production process and directly improves both cooling efficiency and product quality.

How Does Focusun Flake Ice Machine Stably Produce Ice in Deep-Sea Fishing?

As a seafood processing or fishing business owner, are you often troubled by high equipment energy consumption, frequent malfunctions under harsh operating conditions, slow cooling speed, and questionable hygiene of the ice source when obtaining ice for immediate product preservation? Focusun flake ice machines address and solve these problems fundamentally through systematic innovation.

Addressing the issue of equipment vulnerability to high salt corrosion and continuous turbulence at sea, the Focusun marine flake ice machine is constructed entirely of stainless steel and corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy. Its core components utilize Bitzer deep-diving piston compressors and special corrosion-resistant condensers. Its patented internal ice-scraping blade design not only reduces transmission energy consumption but also significantly minimizes the risk of refrigerant leakage. Even under extreme conditions of continuous 30-degree rolling on the fishing vessel, it ensures uninterrupted and stable ice production, providing a reliable onboard ice source for long-distance operations that was previously difficult to achieve.

Addressing the issues of slow cooling speed and potential material contamination from ice sources, Focusun’s commercial flake ice machine produces soft flake ice with a thickness of only 1-2 millimeters and a large surface area. When mixed with materials, this ice achieves rapid, uniform cooling within seconds, covering 360 degrees without dead angles, significantly shortening the production cycle. Simultaneously, all major contact parts are made of food-grade stainless steel, combined with the globally unique “Pre-Purify” patented water purification technology, ensuring the ice’s cleanliness from the source and fully meeting the direct contact requirements of high hygiene standards in industries such as food and pharmaceuticals.

What Types of Flake Ice Machines Does Focusun Offer to You Business?

1. Commercial Freshwater Flake Ice Machines: Featuring a user-friendly, fully automated design, minimizing manual intervention. The integrated or modular structure makes on-site installation and maintenance exceptionally convenient. It is the ideal choice for food processing (e.g., baking, meat cooling), chemical, and concrete cooling industries to achieve a continuous, high-quality ice supply.
2. Land-Based Seawater Flake Ice Machines: Land seawater flake ice machines are typically integrated into reinforced containers conforming to ISO standards, forming a mobile “ice factory.” The integrated design makes transportation and deployment highly flexible. Particularly useful for coastal processing plants, temporary projects, or areas where infrastructure is weak. You can make ice anytime, anywhere.
3. Marine Seawater Flake Ice Machines: Designed specifically for large ocean-going fishing vessels. This flake ice machine overcomes multiple challenges such as seawater corrosion, hull movement, and limited space, enabling fishing vessels to produce pure flake ice at sea, achieving seamless integration of fishing and preservation, greatly improving the quality and economic value of the catch.
