ICESTA Block ice machine  workflow :

1. Feeding water in ice moulds.

Each row of ice moulds is put to brine tank by ice crane, after the water feeder automatically fill the water in.

2. Saltwater agitator makes the saltwater flow cyclically.  

3. Water in Ice moulds. frozen.

Saltwater in brine tank cooled with refrigeration system running and saltwater flow cycling, which makes the water in ice moulds frozen.

4. Melting block ice moulds. 

The crane slings up block Ice cans (moulds) into ice thawing tank for melting.

5. Remove / harvest ice.

Damp the ice block from ice can with dumper, then store block ice.
