Özet

The large amounts of shredded ice required in hot regions can be obtained instantaneously by cutting small and uniform ice particles from a big block of ice. There are three important objectives in the design of such a machine that can perform
this process. The first one is controlling the cutting tool speed in such a way that each cutting process is to be performed at an average same speed while cutting time and feeding time are simultaneously kept at the same level within each cycle of
cutting. The second one is to provide a constant force for the feeder during the cutting phase. The final one is to feed the ice block towards cutting tool at a desired displacement until the next cutting process starts. In this study, a procedure to design a compact machine that can successfully realize these three objectives is demonstrated.
