With the fast development of science and technology, dry ice has been the new clean resource applied to many aspects of our life and production. Dry ice (solidified carbon dioxide) now can be processed in different shapes and sizes by a series of dry ice processing machines, for example, a dry ice block machine.
As for the dry ice block, it can be made with different thicknesses by the dry ice brick maker, and its thickness is adjustable. Besides, the dry ice block machine’s production capacity varies with its different models.
Brief introduction of dry ice block machine
The dry ice brick maker is mainly used to compress liquid carbon dioxide into dry ice blocks with high density by certain hydraulic pressure. The main structure of the dry ice block machine includes the inlet, outlet, compression box, hydraulic system, feed pipe, solenoid valve, motor, exhaust pipe, extrusion die, electric cabinet with PLC control screen, etc.
The dry ice brick maker has high working efficiency in making dry ice blocks. It can be many types and models. In general, the larger the output of the dry ice block machine, the larger its size will be. Its output ranges from 120kg/h to 1000kg/h, and the size and shape of solidified carbon dioxide block can be adjusted according to the type of machine. Usually, the thicker the dry ice produced, the greater the yield of the machine.
Main applications of the Dry Ice Brick Maker
Because the solidified carbon dioxide has a very low temperature, dry ice block can be widely used in many fields, especially for use in food and drug refrigeration and transportation, aviation catering, cold chain transportation, cold storage refrigeration, and so on. When the dry ice blocks are made, we can use the dry ice heat preservation box to keep them at low temperatures.
- Simple structure, easy to install and operate, easy to maintain. The machine running smooth, and safe in operation.
- Small area occupation, space-saving, high production efficiency, high density of finished dry ice blocks, which is easy to preserve and transport.
- The final dry ice products have a good appearance and can use widely used in daily life so that the user can do commercial dry ice block production.

We can see that its hydraulic cylinder is set vertically which is different from the former models with the horizontal hydraulic cylinder. It is composed of the electronic cabinet controller, motor, hydraulic cylinder, frame, mold, and operating shelf. The operating shelf is setting closely to discharging outlet for easy collection the dry ice blocks. The mold can be changed and even be customized for different requirements of the dry ice block sizes.
Dry ice brick maker SL-650-1L
The SL-650-1L model of dry ice block making machine’s structure is similar to the SL-500-1L model, but it has a larger output than the former model. Its yield ranges from 400kg/h to 650kg/h. Because the size of the dry ice blocks produced by this model is larger, its working efficiency is very high. This model of dry ice manufacturing machine is very suitable for the commercial production of dry ice products. And the final dry ice blocks are mainly used for the preservation and refrigeration industry.
How to store dry ice blocks?
It is important to know how to keep dry ice well. Dry ice should be placed in a dry ice heat preservation box during storage. An incubator with a good insulation effect can slow down the sublimation of dry ice. The box used to store the dry ice must be ventilated. Because the pressure generated by the sublimation of the dry ice can cause an explosion, it is not allowed to put the dry ice in an airtight incubator.
