Scale ice means  subcooled  ice. The temperature range of the ice scales may vary between - 6 ° and- 12 ° Celsius. Scotsman MAR line machines are equipped with  adjustable  ice thickness: it may vary from 1.5 mm, as preferred in the meat processing industry, to 3 mm. as demanded by the fishing industry, to  best suit industrial processes and perishables goods transportation.

The latest  trend in the use of scale ice comes from supermarket  specialists, who use it to prepare a double layer of scale and flake on fish and seafood displays. The result is a combined effect of  longer lasting freshness and natural appearance of the  displayed food and slower ice melt than with just flake ice.

Scotsman MAR units encompass the  ultimate in engineering design, our secrets for equipment longevity. The 100% stainless steel,  revolving drum evaporator, receives and returns the refrigerant all from  one side: a solution for added reliability. A choice of built-in or remote timers and control boxes, and space saving dimensions  multiply install flexibility in all  specialised applications.

Scotsman scale ice machines may use seawater to form ice and in the cooling system. The  new Sea-Water units are purposely designed to cope with the rough seas of  on-board life. Scotch-brite finish stainless steel panels with rounded corners for added  safety and superior corrosion  resistance are standard on all other MAR units.
