Flake ice maker for food processing applications
Ensure optimal product preservation and temperature control with precision-engineered flake ice, ideal for maintaining food integrity, enhancing beverage aesthetics, and supporting complex chemical processes.
The FIM series by Ice-tek, including models such as FIM 250 and FIM 400, offers versatile flake/scale ice makers designed for rigorous industrial applications. Constructed with stainless steel approved for food contact, these machines efficiently produce high-quality ice, maintaining temperatures between -5°C and -7°C. Ideal for food processing, seafood preservation, and beverage cooling, each unit ensures consistent ice thickness ranging from 0.9 to 1.2 mm, adjustable with a brine pump for tailored flake requirements.
With a production capacity of up to 400 kg per day, the FIM series seamlessly integrates into existing production lines, offering ON-OFF control for operational ease. Energy efficiency is enhanced through optimized electric power usage of 1.78 kW, resulting in substantial cost savings. Designed for robustness, these machines comply with stringent hygiene and safety standards, making them suitable for use in food, hospitality, and beverage industries.
Ice-tek provides additional customization options, such as special voltages and salt feeding pumps, to meet unique operational needs. Furthermore, the photocell electric barrier ensures safekeeping and precision control over ice level detection. These features, combined with low maintenance requirements and optional stainless steel accessories, ensure the FIM series remains an integral and reliable component in your cooling and preservation processes.
