Vogt Ice, a former division of Henry Vogt Machine Company, revolutionized the commercial ice making industry in 1938 when it built the world's first automatic sized ice machine, the Turbo Ice machine. Prior to this, ice was made in block form. Vogt engineers designed the unique tube ice machine specifically to freeze ice automatically in tubes, momentarily thaw ice loose from the tubes and then caught it into short cylinders with a hole in the center. Today, Vogt Ice designs, manufactures and distributes heavy ice making machines, chillers and parts to commercial and industrial customers worldwide. Vogt machines feature a tubular form of ice as well as plate ice technology, which produce ice at a rate ranging from 1 ton to 125 tons per day. Commercial and Industrial customers include packaged ice producer, food service, resorts, casinos; fishing, poultry and agriculture; am thermal energy storage amongst others. The company has over 100 employees in west Louisville.
