What Pellet Sizes Can SL Pelletizer Machines Produce?

Versatility is key to capturing diverse market demands. The SL series dry ice machines are equipped with easily interchangeable stainless steel extrusion dies, allowing you to switch dry ice pellet size swiftly based on your clients’ needs.

The entry-level SL-50 model supports specifications from Φ3mm to Φ16mm. This covers the two most critical commercial applications: the fine 3mm pellets are the industry standard for precision dry ice blasting (cleaning auto engines, molds, electronics), while the larger 16mm pellets are perfect for local cold chain food shipping.

For the higher-capacity models—ranging from the SL-100 up to the SL-500—the dry ice pellet size expand to support Φ3mm to Φ19mm pellets. The addition of the 19mm capability allows large-scale gas companies to produce extremely thick, slow-melting dry ice specifically designed for long-haul international shipping, bulk pharmaceutical transport, and massive catering events. Changing the dies takes only a few minutes and requires basic hand tools. This “one machine, multiple products” capability ensures you can seamlessly pivot from supplying a local detailing shop in the morning to a massive seafood exporter in the afternoon.
