Description
AeroX IceForge 80 Dry Ice Pelletizer
On-Demand Dry Ice. Simple Operation. Industrial Control.
(Formerly known online as the HD50p Dry Ice Pelletizer)
Stop relying on outside suppliers and take full control of your dry ice production with the AeroX IceForge 80. Designed for small scale professionals in dry ice blasting, industrial cleaning, food & cold-chain logistics, and laboratory environments, this stainless-steel pelletizer delivers reliable, automated dry ice production backed by real-world operating data.
Whether you’re supporting daily blasting jobs or building a local dry ice supply business, the IceForge 80 gives you independence, consistency, and flexibility—without complicated operation.
🚀 Why the IceForge 80 Stands Out
❄️ Fresh Dry Ice — Anytime
Produce up to 110 lbs/hour* of high-density 3mm or 16mm dry ice pellets, ready to use in under 60 seconds.
* Peak output is achieved under ideal operating conditions. Typical real-world production safely averages around 80 lbs/hour.
👆 True One-Press Operation
Daily operation is extremely simple:
-
Select Auto Mode
-
Press Start
-
Begin producing dry ice
No complicated setup, no constant adjustments. Most operators are up and running within minutes, even with minimal training.
⚡ Flexible Power Options — No Utility 3 Phase Required
Standard Configuration
208 to 240V | 60 Hz | 3 Phase | FLA 13
Optional Configurations
480V | 60 Hz | 3 Phase | FLA 6
240V Single Phase | 60 Hz | FLA 25 (reduced production output)
✔️ Recommended: 240V Single Phase to 3 Phase Rotary Phase Converter
• Operates the standard 3 phase motor from existing 240V single phase power
• Maintains full production output with no reduction in performance
• Eliminates the need for utility 3 phase service
• Ideal for shops, warehouses, farms, and mobile operations
We recommend a rotary phase converter over the optional single phase motor whenever 3 phase utility power is unavailable.
🧠 Smart Touchscreen Control — Simple on the Surface, Powerful Under the Hood
The IceForge 80 uses a PLC-driven touchscreen control panel designed for real-world operators, not engineers.
✅ Auto Mode — Normal Production
Auto Mode handles the entire production cycle automatically and is what most customers use every day.
Auto Mode:
-
Manages timing and sequencing
-
Monitors system conditions in real time
-
Provides consistent, repeatable dry ice output
-
Uses one-button start and stop
🔧 Manual Mode — Testing & Diagnostics
Manual Mode is available for:
-
Initial setup
-
Maintenance and service checks
-
Diagnostics and troubleshooting
Manual Mode allows operators to individually activate system components such as:
-
Oil pump
-
Intake valve
-
Hydraulic advance / retreat
👉 Manual Mode is not required for normal operation, but is there when testing or service is needed.
⏱ Adjustable Injection Timing
Injection timing can be adjusted directly from the touchscreen interface, allowing fine-tuning based on:
-
CO₂ tank pressure
-
Ambient conditions
-
Desired pellet consistency
Adjustment ranges are intentionally limited to maintain safety and repeatability.
📊 Real-Time Monitoring (Always Running in the Background)
While operation remains simple, the control system continuously monitors real-time data behind the scenes, including:
-
Oil pressure and oil temperature
-
Cycle timing
-
Motor load
-
CO₂ inlet activity
-
Hydraulic movement
This data helps ensure:
-
Stable production
-
Component protection
-
Reduced operator error
-
Long equipment life
🚨 Built-In Safety & Reset Logic
The system includes:
-
Integrated emergency stop
-
Clear fault messaging
-
Guided reset prompts
-
Controlled restart logic after alarms
If a fault occurs, the machine stops safely, explains the condition, and guides the operator on the next step.
💰 Turn Dry Ice Into a Revenue Stream
✔️ Eliminate supplier delays and shortages
✔️ Control ice quality and freshness
✔️ Reduce long-term operating costs
✔️ Sell dry ice locally to generate additional income
Many operators offset the cost of the IceForge 80 by selling dry ice within months.

❄️ What Affects Dry Ice Production?
Dry ice output varies based on real-world operating conditions, including:
-
Liquid CO₂ tank pressure and tank size
-
Ambient temperature and humidity
-
Injection timing and system warm-up
-
Ventilation and surrounding airflow
While the IceForge 80™ is capable of peak output up to 110 lbs/hr under ideal conditions, most customers can expect safe, consistent production around 80 lbs/hr in typical environments.
