A-Tube Ice Machine offers dual savings in procurement and maintenance, along with lower energy consumption. It is even better at controlling costs compared to block ice machines.

Short Description:

Tube ice machines have become a cost-effective choice for businesses seeking to optimize ice-making expenses, thanks to two key advantages that directly reduce long-term costs: both initial purchase costs and subsequent maintenance costs are lower than those of similar block ice machines, and their energy consumption is significantly lower than traditional block ice machines—cutting down on long-term electricity expenses. These cost-saving features make tube ice machines particularly attractive for enterprises focused on budget control and operational efficiency.​

 

First, tube ice machines outperform similar block ice machines in terms of cost, with lower initial purchase and long-term maintenance expenses, delivering higher cost-effectiveness. When comparing equipment of the same daily ice production (e.g., 1-ton daily output), the average purchase price of a tube ice machine ranges from ​6,000to 8,000, while a block ice machine with the same capacity typically costs ​9,000  to12,000—meaning the initial investment in a tube ice machine is 30% to 35% lower. In terms of maintenance, tube ice machines have a simpler structure: their ice-making cylinders and refrigeration systems have fewer moving parts, reducing wear and tear. For example, a tube ice machine only requires replacing filters and cleaning the ice-making chamber every 6 months, with annual maintenance costs averaging ​300 to  400. In contrast, block ice machines need regular replacement of complex components
Second, tube ice machines consume significantly less energy than traditional block ice machines, substantially reducing long-term electricity 支出. This advantage stems from their optimized refrigeration technology: tube ice machines use a “direct evaporation” cooling method, where the refrigerant directly cools the water in the ice-making cylinder, eliminating heat loss from intermediate links. Testing data shows that a tube ice machine consumes only 70 to 80 kWh of electricity per ton of ice produced, while a traditional block ice machine of the same output consumes 110 to 130 kWh per ton—representing an energy savings of 30% to 38%. For a business producing 5 tons of ice daily, this translates to saving 200 to 300 kWh of electricity per day. Based on an average electricity price of ​0.12perkWh,theannualelectricitycostsavingscanreac 8,760 to $13,140. This energy efficiency not only reduces operational expenses but also aligns with global environmental goals, helping businesses lower their carbon footprint while improving profit margins.​
Together, these two cost-saving advantages make tube ice machines a smart investment for businesses across industries—whether small cafes, seafood markets, or large-scale cold-chain logistics companies. By reducing both one-time and ongoing costs, tube ice machines allow enterprises to allocate funds to other core operations, enhancing overall competitiveness in the market.
