Why this ice machine earns its place
The Manitowoc Ice FU859 is listed as a flake ice machine in the crushed and flake ice machine category. It is aimed at sites that need flaked ice made on site for service routines where cube ice is not the right format.
Flaked ice is useful where the texture and coverage of the ice matter, especially around presentation and cold holding. This machine should be chosen for a flaked-ice workflow rather than as a general substitute for cube ice.
Plan the installation around the site layout, access for cleaning and the way staff will collect and use the ice during service. Craven Cooling can help check whether this Manitowoc flake ice model matches the operation.
