Description
AEROX INDUSTRIES
AeroX dry ice pellet production
IceForge 80
Fresh pellets. Local production. Industrial control.
Produce dry ice where your operation needs it. The IceForge 80 converts liquid CO₂ into 3 mm or 16 mm pellets using PLC controlled production cycles. It supports blasting supply, cold chain staging and laboratory workflows with output matched to actual operating conditions.
PURPOSE BUILT FOR YOUR WORK
Features that support the process
01
Automate daily production
Auto mode manages normal production cycles from the touchscreen. Manual mode supports setup and service checks.
02
Select the pellet size
Choose 3 mm pellets for compatible blasting equipment or 16 mm pellets for suitable storage and packing tasks.
03
Plan the power configuration
Standard and optional electrical configurations help fit the delivered system to your facility.
APPLICATIONS
Where it fits
Blasting operations
Produce fresh pellets for a planned daily cleaning schedule.
Cold chain staging
Support suitable packing and temperature controlled handling applications.
Laboratories and local supply
Evaluate in house production against liquid CO₂ supply, storage and demand.

Build the production workflow
Plan liquid CO₂ delivery, pellet storage, exhaust ventilation and electrical capacity together. AeroX can review the complete installation before the equipment arrives.
PLAN THE RIGHT SETUP
Selection and operating notes
- Output varies with liquid CO₂ supply, tank pressure, injection timing and operating conditions. Peak output is not the expected continuous production rate.
- A liquid withdrawal CO₂ supply is required. Connect to the correct tank outlet; do not exceed 350 PSI. The CO₂ tank is not included.
- AeroX recommends evaluating a properly sized rotary phase converter where utility 3 phase power is unavailable. A qualified electrician must confirm the delivered voltage, phase and installation.
- Provide suitable ventilation and complete the preinstallation checklist. Confirm freight, lead time and collection bin clearance before ordering.
ON-SITE DRY ICE PRODUCTION
A dry ice pelletizer for your daily workflow
How much dry ice do you need each day, and what happens when a delivery arrives late? The IceForge 80 gives facilities a way to produce planned batches on site from a suitable liquid CO₂ supply. Compare delivered dry ice costs, sublimation loss, liquid CO₂ pricing, labor and installation before deciding whether in-house production fits your operation.
Laboratories and research
Produce pellets for suitable sample packing, shipping preparation and laboratory cooling workflows. Coordinate production with your actual daily demand and qualified handling procedures.
Hospitals and clinical facilities
Evaluate local dry ice production for approved specimen packing and cold chain staging. Each facility must qualify the dry ice quality, packaging and process for its intended use.
Food preparation and packing
Plan appropriate liquid CO₂ grade, sanitation and dry ice handling for suitable food cooling and packing applications. Confirm your process requirements before installation.
Dry ice blasting operators
Make fresh 3 mm pellets for compatible blasting equipment. Compare hourly production with the total ice demand of each machine; peak pelletizer output is not a guaranteed continuous supply rate.
What to plan before ordering
- Liquid CO₂ supply: a liquid-withdrawal tank or suitable bulk supply. The CO₂ tank is not included.
- Consumption planning: approximately 2.5 lb of liquid CO₂ per 1 lb of dry ice, according to the preinstallation guide. Actual yield varies.
- Controls: Siemens PLC and touchscreen HMI with Auto production and Manual service functions.
- Site preparation: suitable electrical service, outdoor exhaust routing, room ventilation, continuous CO₂ monitoring and collection-bin clearance.
- Hydraulic service: ISO 46 hydraulic oil. Follow the operator guide for inspection, maintenance and controlled shutdown.
Pair production with an appropriate dry ice storage container. Ask AeroX to confirm the die sizes, bin, transfer hose, electrical configuration, training and freight included in your quote.
