Manitowoc Flake Ice Machines

Manitowoc flake ice machines produce soft, moldable ice for seafood displays, produce cases, healthcare applications, and frozen drinks. Choose from compact undercounter models with built-in bins or higher-capacity models with storage bins to match production capacity with daily demand.

Manitowoc Flake Ice Machines: What You Need to Know

Manitowoc flake ice machines support operations needing moldable ice for packing around products rather than ice that holds its shape in a drink. Its soft texture works well for seafood cases, produce displays, salad bars, healthcare applications, and blended beverages. Many models feature stainless steel cabinets, DuraTech® exterior finishes, blue polyurethane bin liners, foam-insulated doors, and ice scoops with knuckle and thumb guards to help reduce hand contact with stored ice. Manitowoc also offers remote-cooled QuietQube® configurations that move condenser heat and noise away from the ice-making area. Production and storage capacities vary by model, so operators should match the unit to peak ice demand and available space.

Key Features of Manitowoc Flake Ice Machines

Undercounter Options

Compact ice machines with built-in bins fit beneath counters for quick access in kitchens and bars.

Durable Construction

Stainless steel finishes and high-load bearings on select models support repeated use in demanding foodservice and healthcare settings.

Common Questions About Manitowoc Flake Ice Machines

What is flake ice?

Flake ice consists of thin, flat, moldable pieces resembling small snow-like flakes. Unlike cube or crushed ice, flake ice is subcooled, meaning it can be below freezing, which allows for rapid cooling and efficient heat transfer.

Do Manitowoc flake ice makers include storage bins?

Some Manitowoc undercounter flake ice machines include built-in storage bins, while larger configurations may use an ice maker head with a separate bin.

What size Manitowoc flake ice maker is best?

The right size depends on daily ice demand, peak ice demand, and available space. Compact undercounter models fit in tight spaces, while bin-equipped models support higher-volume workflows.
