How to produce dry ice cubes?
Shuliy dry ice block making machine utilizes low temperature and high pressure to make dry ice cubes.
- Collection and compression of carbon dioxide gas
- First, the block dry ice machine introduces liquid carbon dioxide from a storage tank at high pressure into the machine’s compression system. Here, the liquid carbon dioxide is decompressed and quickly converted into dry ice snow.
- Compression molding of dry ice snow
- Next, the dry ice snow enters the machine’s compression mold. By means of a powerful hydraulic system, the dry ice snow is compressed at high pressure into dense dry ice cubes.
- The compression pressure and time of this process are precisely managed by the machine’s control system. This ensures that the density and size of the dry ice cubes meet the requirements.
- Pushing out and cutting off dry ice cubes
- Upon completion of compression molding, the compression mold opens and the dry ice cubes are pushed out. As required, the dry ice blocks can be further cut into specified sizes for transportation and use.
- Automatic cycle and production
- This machine is capable of producing dry ice cubes continuously by automatically repeating the above process after the end of one production cycle.
- You can set the production parameters through the control panel to realize mass production.
Correct operation of dry ice machine
- First, operate manually. Press on first, then press off, and then the pressure relay starts working.
- Then, the master cylinder is compressed forward and back to the bottom for feeding 5 seconds.
- Press the push forward button to compress for 3-5 seconds.
- Shut down and cool the compression box for 10 minutes. Push out the dry ice cubes.
- Retract the main cylinder to the bottom and fully open the auxiliary cylinder. Choose automatic operation, the dry ice production is normal.
