Hoshizaki FM-150AKE-HCN-SB - Nugget Ice Maker (140 kg)

Modular nugget ice maker with high production capacity for professional ice supply systems

The Hoshizaki FM-150AKE-HCN-SB has been developed for professional businesses that require large volumes of high-quality nugget ice while maintaining maximum flexibility when planning their ice supply. Thanks to its modular design, the unit can be combined with a variety of storage bins and adapted to individual capacity requirements. With a production capacity of up to 140 kg of nugget ice per 24 hours, this model is ideal for hotels, bars, restaurants, catering operations, food displays, event venues and many other professional applications.

Nugget ice is valued for its compact, chewable texture and rapid cooling performance. The small ice nuggets cool beverages efficiently while providing controlled dilution. This makes nugget ice particularly suitable for cocktails, soft drinks, smoothies and other chilled beverages. It is also widely used in food presentation, retail environments and medical or laboratory-related applications.

At the heart of the FM series is Hoshizaki’s proven auger system. All supplied water is converted into ice, creating a highly efficient production process. The auger is manufactured from double-hardened stainless steel and operates in combination with durable carbon bearings that require no grease. This reduces maintenance requirements, minimises wear and supports consistently high hygiene standards.

The virtually closed water circuit protects the ice-making process from external contamination. Automatic rinse cycles regularly refresh the water supply and help reduce limescale and mineral deposits. This contributes to consistently high ice quality throughout daily operation.

The electronic control system continuously monitors all production processes and automatically adapts performance to changing operating conditions. The integrated control display simplifies system monitoring and supports preventive maintenance for long-term reliability.

The robust stainless steel housing has been designed for intensive professional use. Easily accessible components and a washable air filter simplify cleaning and maintenance while contributing to a long service life. High-quality construction makes the FM-150AKE-HCN-SB a dependable solution for demanding environments.

The air-cooled refrigeration system operates efficiently and reliably. Natural refrigerant R290 helps reduce energy consumption while supporting high production performance. The plug-and-play concept allows quick installation and straightforward integration into existing ice supply systems.

Thanks to its modular design, the ice maker can be combined with different Hoshizaki storage bins and expanded as ice demand increases. This enables customised ice production solutions for a wide range of business sizes and operational requirements.

The scope of delivery includes an installation kit and all necessary mounting components. Optional water filtration systems and additional accessories are available to further optimise ice quality and support long-term equipment performance.
