California Ice 2023 Project

In 2023 we commissioned another project at California Ice in Lake Elsinore, California. This project involved installing another fully automatic, packaging and palletizing system. This unique solution automatically produces pallets of both individually stacked ice packages or baled bags on the same production line.

Ice Plant Inc. Install 2023

We recently returned from another equipment install and commissioning at the Ice Plant Inc. facility in Mobile, Alabama. We originally developed this packaged ice plant in 2019.  Since the original commissioning, we have added two additional Vogt P34AXL ice makers, updated the refrigeration system to accommodate adding a Vilter 4516XL compressor and added a glycol, recirculated cooling loop to all the compressors.

The project we just returned from involved, adding a second Hamer 525WT packaging line, integrated with a second SA2 Automatic ICE™ Palletizing System.

We are planning to return to this facility for yet another system update later this month. This update involves replacing the original ice-making integration control system, not sourced from AIS, with a new Automatic ICE™ control system.

Cube Ice Expansion 2022

In 2022, AIS completed an expansion project at this facility that involved adding another fully automatic A1 Palletizing Machine to the existing pallet handling system. This project required adding a new Coalza VFFS Packaging Machine to feed packaged ice products to the new A1. We relocated the existing Hamer 540HS Packaging Machine and integrated the semi-automatic SA2 Palletizing Machine. Today this fully automated packaged ice plant can produce up to 300 tons of packaged ice products with only two operators

Fully Automated, High Capacity Packaged Ice Manufacturing

Today’s Automatic ICE™ Systems are the most efficient and productive packaged ice manufacturing platforms available.

Compact Packaged Ice Manufacturing Platform Incorporates an SA2 Automatic ICE™ Palletizing System

When AIS re-built this facility in 2013, we engineered this production platform to accommodate automatic palletizing equipment.

This year the total solution was brought to life.

First Ever AIS model SA2 Automatic ICE™ Palletizing System

Early in 2015 another ice maker was added… a few months later a rebuilt automatic palletizing machine was added.

Finally, in December of that year, AIS rebuilt the packaging room and included the addition of the first ever AIS model SA2 Automatic ICE™ Palletizing System.

AIS Kor™ Ice System 2013 – Extreme Ice

In the spring of 2013 AIS installed an all new AIS Kor™ Ice System at Extreme Ice in Miles City Montana.

An AIS Kor Ice System properly connects and integrates ice manufacturing with ice packaging. These meticulously engineered ice processing systems are the head of a productive operation.

Ice Factory Automation – Cube Ice Company

Automatic ICE™ Systems, Inc gives you access to the development of a high capacity ice manufacturing platform that requires only 1 person to operate.  In the spring of 2013, the professional AIS installation team was able to bring the culmination of months engineering and design work to life in a matter of weeks.

The Future of Packaged Ice Automation

This 2012 project was the second stage to a new facility, turn-key, project developed by AIS in 2010. In this project, AIS introduced full product automation to this state-of-the-art Automatic ICE™System. The result is a high volume packaged ice manufacturing facility that requires only one technician to operate.

Welcome to the future of packaged ice!

A New Beginning

This 2012 project in the Los Angeles area involved an all new ice processing, packaging, and fully automatic palletizing system. This Automatic ICE™ System takes operational productivity to a whole new level.
