Why this crushed & flake ice machine earns its place
The SIMAG SPH405AS is a modular flake ice machine for operators who need a serious step up from a small integral unit but do not want the largest flaker in the range. It is aimed at sustained commercial use where flake ice is part of the service rhythm.
Flake ice is the right choice when ice has to hold, cushion and present as well as chill. It sits neatly around seafood, bottles and chilled displays, refreshes quickly during trading, and gives prep teams an ice format that can be worked by hand or scoop without fighting against solid cubes.
The verified body size is 538 × 663 × 650 mm, giving the SPH405AS a relatively compact modular head for its output class. SIMAG specifies a high-grade 441 stainless steel scotch-brite exterior, a food-safe plastic interior and front ventilation, so it can be considered for built-in equipment runs where the installation is planned correctly.
