Tube Ice Evaporator Drum Manufacturer & Supplier

Tube Ice Evaporator Drum Manufacturer

1ton~30ton/24h Production Capacity High-Efficiency Heat Transfer Flexible Customization & Adaptability

The tube ice machine evaporator is the core component where heat exchange occurs, and water freezes into ice. Its working principle is: refrigerant evaporates and absorbs heat on the shell side (outside the tubes), while water flowing through the inner walls of the heat exchange tubes is cooled and gradually freezes into ice. As a tube ice evaporator drum manufacturer and supplier, with its efficient heat exchange design and precision manufacturing processes, Koller tube ice machine evaporator ensures crystal-clear ice with a pure taste, and is widely used in food consumption, preservation, and industrial cooling applications.

Main Features of Koller Tube Ice Evaporator Drum

Food-Grade Stainless Steel Material

The heat exchange tubes, upper and lower water tanks, and all components that come into contact with water are made of SUS304 stainless steel, ensuring that the tube ice meets food hygiene and safety standards and can be directly used for consumption and beverage preparation.

High-Efficiency Heat Exchange & Energy-Saving Design

The heat exchange tubes undergo specialized heat treatment processes to optimize thermal conductivity. Combined with an advanced refrigeration system design, the evaporator achieves high heat exchange efficiency with low energy consumption. The external insulation structure effectively reduces cold loss, prevents condensation and corrosion, and further ensures stable ice production.

Multiple Ice Size Options Available

The evaporator can produce hollow tube ice in various outer diameters, including Φ20mm, Φ28mm, Φ34mm, and Φ40mm. The inner hole diameter can be adjusted between 5mm and 10mm by controlling the freezing time, and ice length can be set via the cutting mechanism to meet diverse customer requirements.

Stable De-Icing System

The system employs hot gas defrost, ensuring rapid and uniform ice release. This method causes minimal system impact and ensures reliable operation. The matching cutting mechanism guarantees uniform ice cube lengths with a low breakage rate.

Frequently Asked Questions About Koller Tube Ice Evaporator Drum Manufacturer

What material is the evaporator made of, and is it hygienic and safe?

All water-contact parts of the Koller tube ice machine evaporator are made of SUS304 food-grade stainless steel, meeting international hygiene standards. The tube ice produced is pure, sanitary, and safe for direct human consumption.

Can the tube diameter and ice length be customized?

Yes. Koller offers a variety of standard outer diameters (20mm, 28mm, 34mm, 40mm) for selection. Additionally, we can customize specific ice lengths or produce solid tube ice according to your requirements.

How long does one ice-making cycle take?

A complete ice-making cycle typically takes about 20–25 minutes, depending on the ice thickness setting and ambient temperature.

What is the production lead time?

Typically 20–30 working days for standard models, depending on customization. Non-standard or bulk orders may take longer.

What about installation and after-sales support once the equipment arrives on site?

We provide detailed installation manuals and video guidance. If needed, we can dispatch engineers to site for installation supervision and technical training. The equipment comes with a 12-month warranty and lifetime maintenance service.

Besides the evaporator component, can I purchase a complete Koller tube ice machine system?

Absolutely. Koller is a professional ice system solution provider. We not only offer high-quality individual evaporators, but our core business is supplying complete turnkey equipment. We can provide a full tube ice machine unit including compressor, condenser, evaporator, and electrical control system, as well as supporting ice storage bins, ice conveying systems, and cooling towers. All components are pre-assembled and tested at our factory, requiring only on-site connection of pipes and wiring for startup–significantly saving your installation time and project costs.
