Hoshizaki is widely considered to be one of the world's leading manufacturers of ice machines and is committed to providing an outstanding level of reliability and performance to ensure customers can depend on them season after season, year after year. The range encompasses many machines that make different types of ice for different users across a wide span of industry sectors. However, all the machines bear the unique hallmark of quality that is associated with Hoshizaki. The product range include machines for cubelet/nugget ice, crescent ice, flaker ice, and Top Hat ice in addition to ice dispensers with models suitable for small cafes or bars right through to large, modular, industrial models.
Hoshizaki's KM machines produce clear, crescent shaped ice. Crescent ice is unique in that it moves around freely and packs together tightly in the bin, achieving maximum ice storage capacity. Therefore, there are no air pockets as the individual crescents do not stick together in the storage bin. The unique shape is extremely versatile and extends from the splash-free serving of post mix soft drinks through to diverse applications such as fish transportation and display and even laser therapy.
To produce crescent shaped ice, Hoshizaki's KM range has a vertical stainless steel evaporator which is exceptionally durable and virtually maintenance free. The cubes produced are crystal clear as only the purest water molecules will freeze on to the evaporator. KM machines not only produce great ice, they are also water and energy efficient. The control board manages the freezing cycles and adjusts the setting to accommodate external factors that influence the ice making process. The evaporator and the exterior of KM machines are made of stainless steel to ensure hygiene and durability. The access panel is sited conveniently in the front of each unit for easy access. Its many qualities mean that the KM range is environmentally friendly and has many advantages which make it the ideal choice.
The KM-61BAH is ENERGY STAR qualified.
