60 Ton Flake Ice Plant for Concrete Cooling – Scalable Power for Growing Operations
THE PROBLEM: YOUR PLANT IS GROWING, BUT YOUR COOLING SYSTEM IS NOT
Many concrete producers start with medium-capacity systems.
But as demand increases, a hidden problem appears:
- Production capacity increases
- Ambient temperature remains high
- Cooling becomes insufficient
This leads to:
- Inconsistent concrete quality
- Production slowdowns
- Risk in large pours
At this stage, existing cooling systems are no longer enough.
THE SOLUTION: FIM60T FLAKE ICE PLANT
The FIM60T Flake Ice Plant is designed for operations that are scaling up.
- 60 tons/day ice production
- 2500 kg/hour continuous output
It provides the extra capacity buffer needed to maintain stability in growing plants.
HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS?
The system integrates seamlessly into your batching line:
- Flake ice is produced continuously
- Stored in a fully automatic rake system
- Delivered via screw conveyor
- Fed into mixer or aggregate system
Flake ice ensures:
- Fast heat absorption
- Stable hydration process
- Consistent production output
REAL USE CASE SCENARIO
Imagine a 90–120 m³/h concrete batching plant in a hot climate.
Without proper cooling:
- Concrete temperature fluctuates
- Large pours become risky
With FIM60T:
- Cooling capacity matches production growth
- Stable batching cycles
- Improved concrete quality
ENGINEERING STRENGTH BEHIND THE SYSTEM
- 300 HP compressor power
- 191.1 kW/h power consumption
- 2 × 30 ton ice drum evaporators
- 60 ton ice storage capacity
- Full automatic PLC control system
Containerized design:
- Standard 40HC container
- Easy transport and fast installation
WHY 60 TON INSTEAD OF 40 OR 80?
Because this is the transition point.
Choose FIM60T if:
- Your plant is expanding
- 40 ton is no longer enough
- 80 ton is still over-investment
This is the bridge solution between medium and large scale operations.
KEY ADVANTAGES
- Ideal for 90–120 m³/h batching plants
- Scalable capacity for growing demand
- Balanced investment vs performance
- Fully automatic system
- Remote monitoring support
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- What is a 60 ton flake ice plant used for?
To support growing concrete plants and maintain stable temperature control in higher production volumes.
- When should I upgrade to a 60 ton system?
When your existing cooling capacity is no longer enough for your batching volume.
- Is 60 ton enough for large projects?
Yes, for mid-to-large scale plants, especially single or optimized dual batching systems.
