Ice Compression Machine

Ice Compression Machine FAQ

Who invented the compression ice machine?

James Harrison began experimenting with ether vapor compression, creating his first ice making machine in 1851. Three years later, he successfully built a version capable of creating 3,000kg of ice per day.

What size ice machine?

Cuber Heads are manufactured in standard widths of 22", 30", and 48". Ice storage bins and ice dispensers are designed to be the same standard widths to easily accommodate the standard ice machine heads. Some ice storage bins are larger than 48", reaching up to 60" wide.

How does the ice machine make ice?

Every ice machine contains some sort of refrigerant gas which the compressor pushes through the system. When the machine is turned on the compressor increases the pressure of the refrigerant which affects the temperature. As it goes through the narrow tubes, the refrigerant looses heat and is condensed.

What is ace compression?

In computing, ACE is a proprietary data compression archive file format developed by Marcel Lemke, and later bought by e-merge GmbH. The peak of its popularity was 1999–2001, when it provided slightly better compression rates than RAR, which has since become more popular.
