1. Detailed Introduction & Specifications

Each machine in our production line is engineered to perform a specific, critical role in the mochi ice cream manufacturing process. Below is a breakdown of their functions, along with detailed technical specifications to help you evaluate their fit for your industrial needs.

1.1 YC-170 Automatic Encrusting Machine (Core Mochi Ice Cream Forming Machine)

The YC-170 is the heart of the production line, responsible for the core task of encrusting ice cream fillings with mochi dough. It automates the process of wrapping creamy ice cream centers with chewy mochi, ensuring uniform thickness, consistent shape, and no leakage. What sets it apart is its ability to directly place the formed mochi ice cream into small plastic trays—eliminating the need for manual picking and handling, which saves labor and reduces contamination risks. The plastic trays are automatically supplied by the machine, and their size can be customized to hold 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 pieces of mochi ice cream, depending on your market needs.

1.2 YC-23 Imitate Handmade Flour Coating Machine

After the mochi ice cream is formed, the YC-23 applies a thin, even layer of flour to the surface. This step is essential to prevent the sticky mochi from adhering to trays, equipment, or other pieces during subsequent processing. The machine mimics the precision of manual flour coating—ensuring no excess flour (which would affect taste and appearance) and no missed spots. It also features a dust absorption system to reduce flour dust in the production environment, maintaining a clean and safe workspace.

1.3 YC-150 Automatic Tray Aligning Machine

Following flour coating, the YC-150 takes over to automatically align and arrange the mochi ice cream-filled trays. It ensures that each tray is properly positioned for subsequent processes—such as quick freezing or vacuum packaging—eliminating manual tray alignment and reducing errors. The machine’s high capacity (matching the output of the YC-170) ensures a smooth, continuous flow of production, with no bottlenecks.

1.4 YC-136 Mochi Dough Steaming & Mixing Machine (150L)

The foundation of great mochi ice cream is high-quality mochi dough—and the YC-136 is designed to produce just that. This machine combines mixing and steaming in one unit: it first mixes rice flour (and other ingredients) into a smooth batter, then steams it to achieve the chewy, elastic texture that defines mochi. With a 150L capacity, it can produce large batches of dough to keep up with high-volume industrial production, and its adjustable rotation speed allows for customization of dough texture.

1.5 YC-135 Steam Generator (with Water Softener)

To ensure consistent, high-quality steaming for the mochi dough, the YC-135 Steam Generator provides a steady supply of clean, dry steam. It is paired with a water softener to remove impurities (such as calcium and magnesium) from the water, preventing scale buildup in the generator and the YC-136 steamer. This not only extends the lifespan of the equipment but also ensures that the steam does not affect the taste or texture of the mochi dough. The generator features fully automatic control, making it easy to operate and maintain.

2. Production Line Working Process

Our full automatic mochi ice cream production line is designed for seamless integration, with each machine working in tandem to ensure efficient, consistent production. The entire process is automated, requiring minimal manual intervention—reducing labor costs and human error. Below is the step-by-step working flow:

1. Mochi Dough Preparation (YC-135 + YC-136): First, the YC-135 Steam Generator (with water softener) produces clean, stable steam. This steam is supplied to the YC-136 Mochi Dough Steaming & Mixing Machine, where rice flour and other ingredients are mixed into a smooth batter. The YC-136 then steams the batter at a controlled temperature and pressure, turning it into elastic, chewy mochi dough. The 150L capacity of the YC-136 ensures that large batches of dough are produced to keep up with the production line’s output.
2. Mochi Ice Cream Forming & Tray Placement (YC-170): The prepared mochi dough is fed into the YC-170 Automatic Encrusting Machine, along with pre-chilled ice cream fillings (e.g., vanilla, matcha, chocolate). The YC-170 automatically wraps the ice cream with mochi dough, forming uniform, leak-proof mochi ice cream pieces. Simultaneously, the machine supplies small plastic trays automatically and places each formed mochi ice cream into the trays—eliminating the need for manual picking. Tray sizes can be customized to hold 2-10 pieces, depending on your needs.
3. Flour Coating (YC-23): The tray-filled mochi ice cream pieces are conveyed to the YC-23 Imitate Handmade Flour Coating Machine. This machine applies a thin, even layer of flour to the surface of the mochi, preventing sticking during subsequent processing. The built-in dust absorption system keeps the workspace clean and reduces flour waste.
4. Tray Aligning (YC-150): After flour coating, the trays are sent to the YC-150 Automatic Tray Aligning Machine. The machine aligns the trays precisely, ensuring they are positioned correctly for the next steps—such as quick freezing or vacuum packaging. This step ensures a smooth, continuous flow of production, with no bottlenecks.
5. Post-Processing (Optional): Once aligned, the trays can be directly sent to a quick-freezing machine to lock in freshness, or to a vacuum packaging machine for long-term storage. The entire process from dough preparation to tray alignment takes place automatically, with a production speed of 10-90 pieces per minute—adjustable to match your production needs.
