Industrial ice crusher machine

As their names suggest, ice crushers, also called ice shavers or ice makers, are kitchen devices specifically designed for crushing ice to provide refreshing ice-cold soft drinks, juices and cocktails. Most of the ice makers and crushers offered by manufacturers and suppliers on Alibaba.com are either electric, manual, or powered by a battery. Here are the main differences for business buyers to understand better what will meet the needs of their customers.

Electric crushers

Electric ice crushers are normally the most productive option when it comes to crushers. Domestic ones can produce approx. 200 kg per day, while large-scale, industrial options will output the impressive amount of 10 tons per hour. Electric ice crushers feature stainless steel, which makes them reliable and durable machines. The drawbacks include that they are heavier and less portable as they will always need an electric socket close to work. This will not be a problem for customers who do not plan to move the device that much.

Manual crushers

The housing of manual ice shavers is usually made of ABS plastic (a food-grade, impact-resistant material), stainless steel, or other metals. Regardless of the material they are made of, they are normally more lightweight and portable than electric ice shaver machines. However, if your customers are looking for an ice crusher for parties, they should avoid manual ice crushers because preparing more than a few drinks will translate into the bartender getting quite sweat and losing precious time. This option is ideal of small-scale or domestic use, perfect for a night with few friends at home or a family meeting at the park.

Battery crushers

Battery-powered ice crushers have the best of both worlds because they are both productive and portable. Their output is sometimes equivalent to that of a domestic electric ice shaver, and their housing is generally made of durable, food-grade plastic, which makes them lightweight. They can be charged via USB and are ideal for a party on the beach, for example.

Ice crushers and shavers are essential in the preparation of numerous soft drinks, juices and cocktails. Find international suppliers of professional ice shaver machines on Alibaba.com to start buying in bulk and offering quality products to your customers.
