Eismaschine

Ice machines are essential devices when it comes to creating reproducible cooling conditions for sensitive samples, reagents or processes. They are used wherever constant temperatures, hygienic conditions and reliable ice production are required. Flake ice in particular is very popular due to its structural properties: it adapts to a wide variety of applications, is easy to dose and does not freeze together immediately, making it an ideal cooling medium for many laboratory purposes.

The Flake-Line ice cream machine from Wessamat has been specially designed for the production of flake ice and impresses with its compact design and sophisticated technology. With a production capacity of 40 kg in 24 hours, it delivers crystalline, irregularly shaped ice flakes with a temperature of -0.5 °C, which can be used in a variety of ways. The flake ice produced can be poured and remains loose for a long time without clumping.

The production process is based on the formation of a thin layer of ice on the inside wall of the freezing cylinder, which is created by injecting water. This layer of ice is loosened by a screw conveyor and transported upwards. At the outlet of the cylinder, the characteristic ice flakes are formed, which are then transferred to a storage container with a capacity of 10 kg. An integrated thermostat continuously monitors the fill level: as soon as the container is full, ice production is automatically stopped and restarted automatically after an ice removal.

The appliance not only impresses with its functionality, but also with its robust design: The housing is made entirely of stainless steel, while the storage container is made of high-quality plastic - a combination that ensures durability and hygienic cleaning. The Wessamat Flake-Line ice machine is therefore a reliable and efficient solution for laboratories with a regular need for high-quality flake ice.
