size of USD 62.7 billion in 2020 (Grand View Research, 2021). The demand for
ice cream has increased over the years, and manufacturers are constantly
looking for ways to improve their production processes to meet the growing
demand. One way to achieve this is through the use of automatic ice cream
makers.
making ice cream, from mixing the ingredients to freezing and churning the
mixture into ice cream. Automatic ice cream makers have several advantages
which can be time-consuming and expensive. With the increasing demand for ice
cream, there is a need for a more efficient and cost-effective production method.
However, existing automatic ice cream makers in the market have certain
the inability to produce different flavors and textures of ice cream (Lai, Hsu, &
Yeh, 2013). Therefore, there is a need to design and fabricate an automatic ice
cream maker that can address these limitations and meet the growing demand
for high-quality ice cream. An automatic ice cream maker has the potential to
address these challenges and revolutionize the ice cream production industry.
The proposed study aims to design and fabricate an automatic ice cream
maker that can produce high-quality ice cream efficiently. The development of an
automatic ice cream maker requires the integration of various components such
as a compressor, condenser, motor, and mixing bowl into a single system. The
design of the machine will require a significant amount of research in areas such
evaluation.
automatic ice cream maker can streamline the production process by automating
various stages, including mixing, freezing, and dispensing. This machine will
reduce the manual labor required in the traditional method of making ice cream,
enabling users to produce a large volume of ice cream within a short time. This

Secondly, an automatic ice cream maker can improve the quality of ice

manual intervention, which can lead to inconsistencies in the quality of ice cream

produced consistently, with the same quality and texture every time. This will

growing ice crystals from the sides of the bowl until in the 1940s Nancy Johnsons
of Philadelphia invented the first ice cream maker machine. Her invention
comprised two spatulas that fitted tightly into a long cylindrical barrel. The spatula
contained holes and were attached to a shaft that could be rotated with a crank.
The outside of the cylinder was cooled with a mixture of salt and ice. The holes
made it easier to rotate the spatulas in the mix and simultaneously scrape ice
crystals off the inner wall of the cylinder. This invention simplified ice cream
production and ensured a more uniform texture than had previously possible

analysis are used in the manufacture of ice cream (Statler, 2019). The traditional
method involved putting the components into a narrow drum that was then
submerged into a bigger container that contained a mixture of ice and salt, which
was time-consuming and expensive. Milk and cream do not freeze until
temperatures drop below 20F (-6.7C), despite the fact that water does so at 32F
There are two types of commercial ice cream machines: soft serve
and batch freezers. Depending on the type of confection you want to make and
the quantity you need to produce will determine which unit you add to your
commercial kitchen. First are the soft serve ice cream machines. It typically
produces a light and airy ice cream that has a soft texture to it, hence “soft
serve.” These units allow operators to dispense on-demand cones and cups with
the pull of a lever, which can also help with portion control. Soft serve machines
can also be used to dispense other treats like frozen yogurt, which also give
these variations may generally be divided into four categories: the number of
For more solid frozen desserts like traditional ice cream, gelato, custard,
sherbet and more, batch freezers are the perfect option. Just as the name
suggests, batch freezers allow you to produce a batch of one type of frozen
dessert (varies depending on capacity of exact unit), which allows for more

soft serve ice cream makers, batch freezers are categorized by type, capacity

paddle, and a lid. There are various features to consider when choosing an ice
cream maker, including size, capacity, speed, and ease of use. Freezing
time: The freezing time of an ice cream maker can vary depending on the model.
Some ice cream makers require the freezing bowl to be pre-frozen for several
hours before use, while others have built-in compressors that freeze the mixture
various sizes and capacities, from small countertop models that make a few
servings to larger models that can make several quarts of ice cream at once
(Rao, 2020).
Speed: The speed at which an ice cream maker churns can affect
the texture and consistency of the final product. Some models have adjustable
speeds, while others have pre-set speeds that cannot be changed (Mondal,
2017). Ease of use: Ice cream maker machines can be simple or complex to use,
depending on the model. Some models require the user to manually mix the
ingredients and monitor the freezing process, while others have automatic

Making ice cream can be a fun and creative outlet, allowing you to experiment
with different flavours and textures. It can also be a fun activity to do with friends
and family (Martha Stewart, 2021,). Dietary constraints: An ice cream maker
