The Howe ice flaker consists of a stationary vertical freezing drum. An electric
water pump is used to re-circulate and distribute the water over the inside surface of the
drum. An ice blade attached to a rotating shaft scores and wedges the ice off the drum
without actually touching the drum itself. The ice drops into a storage bin below while
excess water is re-circulated over the freezing drum. the ice is sub cooled so when
harvested , the ice temperature is 22° F |
