Our solutions are designed to increase capacity, reduce your waste, and generate more profit for your business.
Why Modern’s Plant Strategy Works
Designed to maximize uptime. Built for long-term ROI.
We don’t design systems around equipment alone—we design around your capacity goals, your operating costs, and your long-term business plan. That’s why our approach centers on two core principles:
- ➡️ Liquid overfeed refrigeration for efficiency and consistency
- ➡️ Single screw compressor architecture for performance and reliability
Together, these choices create a plant that delivers steady output with reduced energy demand and less mechanical strain.
🔵 Liquid Overfeed Refrigeration: Smarter Cooling, Stronger Output
Liquid overfeed is the backbone of our approach because it offers clear, long-term advantages for ice producers:
✔ More stable ice production
Overfeed ensures consistent refrigerant flow across evaporators, allowing your system to run efficiently even during peak load conditions.
✔ Better heat transfer
A steady refrigerant supply improves evaporator performance and keeps your system operating at maximum efficiency.
✔ Lower horsepower per ton
Improved efficiency translates directly into lower electrical costs without sacrificing production capacity.
✔ Less mechanical wear
Liquid overfeed helps reduce oil accumulation and stress on critical components, extending equipment life and minimizing downtime.
⚙️ Single Screw Compressors: Built for Industrial Ice Production
To support high-volume ice plants, we recommend a single screw compressor design—a technology known for power, consistency, and durability.
✔ Continuous, high-capacity compression
Screw compressors deliver steady, stable performance without the pulsation seen in some reciprocating designs.
✔ Lower lifetime cost
With fewer moving parts and longer service intervals, screw compressors often reduce total cost of ownership over time.
✔ Ideal for heavy-duty demand
Their torque and durability support industrial-level production without drops in capacity.
📈 What drives ROI in an ice plant?
Your operation shouldn’t just meet today’s needs — it should be ready for tomorrow’s opportunities.
Modern-designed systems provide:
✔ Consistent output with reduced energy consumption
✔ Configurations that scale as your business grows
✔ Seamless integration for future automation
✔ Fast, stable performance during peak demand
✔ A long-term strategy for ROI and reliability
Every system is engineered with the same goal: keep your plant running, producing, and profitable.
