The Hoshizaki FM-480AKE-HCN-SB is a modular nugget ice maker designed to produce up to 330 kg of premium flake ice every 24 hours.
With its dry, hard texture, nugget ice is ideal for cocktails, delivering efficient cooling with just the right level of dilution. It’s especially well suited for spirit-forward drinks such as Mojitos and Tiki cocktails, where balance and presentation matter.
The Nugget ice is great for fresh food displays where a clear ice effect is prefered. Nugget ice is also a great alternative to flake, this nugget ice is small enough to form into shape. Perfect for seafood and oysters.
- Sustainable & Efficient
- The FM-480AKE-HCN-SB uses natural refrigerant R290, an environmentally friendly solution that also enhances performance and optimises ice production capacity.
- Durable & Hygienic Construction
- Featuring a stainless steel exterior, the machine is built for durability and long-term use. Its closed water circuit provides protection against contamination throughout the ice-making process. Like all Hoshizaki machines, it is designed for easy operation, cleaning, and maintenance.
- Advanced Technology
- The FM series is equipped with a worktime-based component replacement system, easily monitored via an intuitive control display to support preventive maintenance. Hoshizaki was also the first manufacturer to introduce an automated water circuit rinse cycle, helping prevent mineral buildup, protect the hydraulic system, and maintain excellent hygiene standards.
- Smart, Long-Lasting Design
- Engineered for reliability, the FM-480AKE-HCN-SB uses carbon graphite bushings instead of traditional ball bearings, enabling completely grease-free operation. The reduced number of moving parts minimises wear and tear, while water-lubricated bearings help prevent calcification and bacterial contamination.
