In the field of ice cream making, the refrigeration technology of the icicle machine plays a key role, determining whether delicious ice cream can be made efficiently and with high quality. Nowadays, many icicle machines use advanced compressor refrigeration technology.As a core component, the compressor realizes heat transfer by continuously compressing and expanding the refrigerant. Common refrigerants such as Freon or new environmentally friendly refrigerants change from gas to liquid under the action of the compressor, releasing a large amount of heat in the process and dissipating it through the condenser. The liquid refrigerant then enters the evaporator, vaporizes rapidly in the evaporator, absorbs the heat from the surrounding environment, and thus rapidly reduces the temperature of the raw materials in the icicle machine. This refrigeration cycle can accurately control the temperature, ensure that the raw materials are always in an ideal low temperature state, and facilitate the shaping of ice cream and the fineness of the texture.Some high-end icicle machines are also equipped with a mixed refrigeration method of air cooling and direct cooling. Air cooling technology uses fans to promote air circulation, quickly take away heat, greatly increase the refrigeration speed, and can cool the raw materials to a suitable temperature in a short time, greatly shortening the production cycle of ice cream. The direct cooling method allows the evaporator to directly contact the raw materials, making the cooling more uniform and stable, effectively avoiding the situation where the local temperature is too low or too high, and ensuring the consistency of the taste of each ice cream. The combination of the two not only takes advantage of the rapid cooling of air cooling, but also uses direct cooling to ensure the uniformity and stability of the temperature.In addition, some ice cream machines use intelligent temperature control technology. The temperature inside the machine is monitored in real time through a high-precision temperature sensor, and the data is fed back to the control system. The control system automatically adjusts the operating power of the compressor and the flow rate of the refrigerant according to the preset temperature parameters to achieve precise control of the temperature. For example, when the raw material temperature is close to the set ice cream making temperature, the refrigeration system will automatically reduce the power to maintain a stable low temperature environment to prevent the temperature from being too low, causing the ice cream to be too hard or produce ice crystals. This intelligent temperature control technology not only improves the refrigeration efficiency, but also reduces energy consumption. At the same time, it provides a reliable guarantee for making delicate and silky ice cream, allowing consumers to easily enjoy high-quality ice cream at home or in commercial places.
