R3000 Reformer: Dry Ice Pellet to Slice

R3000 Reformer Product Brochure Product Photo

Description

Superior slice production in a minimal footprint

Reforming pellets into slices reduces dry ice consumable cost and is safer for the operator compared to traditional block cutting processes. The pellet-to-slice reforming process eliminates hazards from cutting block and reduces CO2 sublimation loss by ~80% producing less CO2 "smoke."

Cold Jet's R3000 Pellet-to-Slice Reformer is fully automated, with flexibility to reform 0.12" (3 mm) to 0.6" (16 mm) dry ice pellets (or nuggets) into 5" x 5" x 3/4" (125 x 210 x 25 mm) slices. Combine with the P3000 Pelletizer to produce and reform on demand up to 1,000 kg an hour of high density pellets or nuggets into slices.
