Ice making equipment, supplied with the project

Name: Ice Making Equipment — Flake, Tube, Block
Brand: Shanke

Ice machines are supplied as part of the cold store so that the customer does not run a second supplier for the ice side.

Which ice, and why

Four ice types cover most food and fishing applications. The choice follows the product and how the ice is used, not the price of the machine.

Type	Form	Typical use	Trade-off
Flake ice	Thin flat flakes	Fish and seafood holding, display, rapid chilling	Melts quickly; large surface area
Tube ice	Hollow cylinders	Beverages, retail, general food	Slower melting than flake
Block ice	Solid blocks	Long-distance transport, traditional markets	Needs crushing before use
Granular ice	Small irregular pieces	Blast chilling, slurry systems	Requires a delivery system

At a fishing port, flake ice is usual because it cools fast and packs around the product. For retail display, tube ice lasts longer and presents better.

What we supply and what we do not

The ice machine is supplied equipment. What we take responsibility for is the integration: capacity, water, drainage, power, and the cold rooms it serves.

Item	Responsibility
Ice machine and storage bin	Supplied
Water supply and treatment	Specified by us, installed on site
Refrigeration interface with the cold store	Ours — capacity and control coordinated
Commissioning and operator training	Ours
Spare parts for the ice machine	Through the machine supplier; we manage the interface

Nameplate and warranty for the ice machine follow the machine's own documents. Selection, coordination and after-sales contact stay with us.

Ice making questions

Do you manufacture the ice machines?

No. They are supplied equipment, integrated into the project. We state this because a buyer will ask, and because the boundary matters when a machine needs warranty service.

Can ice making be added to an existing cold store?

Yes, where power, water and drainage capacity allow. The refrigeration load and the adjacent room have to be checked first.

How much ice does a plant need?

It follows daily throughput and how the ice is used — holding, display or transport. That is calculated together with the room selection rather than bought as a separate decision.

A project we delivered

An ice plant supplied alongside a cold store, so the customer runs one supplier for the ice side and the rooms it serves.

Ice making installation at a customer site — **Ice making and cold storage on one site**Ice machine, storage bin and the cold rooms it feeds, supplied and commissioned together.

Send the room conditions

Product, room temperature, tonnage and daily throughput — enough to come back with a selection and an indicative price.
