KMD-210ABE-HC Modular Crescent Ice Maker

The Hoshizaki KMD-210ABE-HC Modular Ice Maker is a professional commercial ice machine designed to produce clear, curved “crescent” ice cubes that are highly versatile and ideal for high-demand foodservice environments. This model is perfectly suited for bars, nightclubs, hotels, sporting venues, entertainment facilities, and fast-selling establishments where ice quality, reliability, and efficiency are critical.

Crescent-shaped ice cubes provide splash-free serving for post-mix soft drinks and nest neatly in glasses, reducing splash-back while displacing a higher percentage of liquid. Their solid, cavity-free structure ensures a slow melt rate, making them ideal for long drinks, Caribbean cocktails, beverage bottle and can displays, wine and champagne chilling in ice buckets without added water, and even fish display counters.

At the heart of the KMD-210ABE-HC is Hoshizaki’s advanced KM(D) technology, featuring the industry-leading CycleSaver® system. The uniquely engineered double-sided stainless steel evaporator produces ice on both sides simultaneously, delivering the same ice output as conventional machines but in nearly half the production cycles. This significantly reduces non-productive harvest cycles, lowers energy consumption, minimizes mechanical stress, and extends overall machine lifespan.

Incoming refill water flows between the two back-to-back evaporators, pre-chilling the water while naturally initiating the harvest process without additional energy use. This design ensures reliable ice production even in warm ambient conditions, where standard machines may struggle.

The special evaporator geometry allows fast and free water flow, preventing minerals from freezing and ensuring that only pure water molecules form ice. This results in crystal-clear crescent cubes, even in areas with heavily mineralized water. As ice grows thicker without internal cavities, the melting speed remains among the slowest in the industry.

The all-stainless-steel KM Edge evaporator can be safely descaled using standard mineral removal chemicals without corrosion or flaking, ensuring easy maintenance and long-term durability. Individually formed crescent cubes dispense smoothly and self-level in the storage bin, maximizing bin fill and increasing daily ice reserve without increasing footprint.

An integrated EverCheck™ self-diagnostic electronic control board with audible alarms assists service technicians in fast and accurate troubleshooting, reducing downtime and service costs.
