Overview

Scotsman MC 1448 MA 706kg Modular Dice Ice Maker

The Scotsman MC 1448 MA is a high-capacity modular dice ice maker head capable of producing up to 706 kg of crystal-clear dice ice every 24 hours, making it well suited to restaurants, hotels, bars, catering operations, and any high-volume commercial environment with sustained ice demand. Each cube measures 22 x 22 x 22 mm and weighs approximately 10 g, forming a classic dice shape with generous surface area that chills beverages rapidly and presents well in buffets and food displays.

Built on Scotsman's vertical evaporator spray-system technology and protected by Agion antimicrobial treatment, the MC 1448 MA consistently delivers pure, clear, slow-melting ice while actively resisting microbial growth and odour development throughout the production process. As a head-only unit, it pairs with a compatible storage bin such as the NB 948 or UBH 1100, offering flexible installation to suit varying footprint and capacity requirements. Regular six-monthly water filter cartridge replacement and periodic descaling of the evaporator plate are essential to maintain ice quality, food safety compliance, and the long service life this machine is engineered to deliver.

Key Benefits

• Produces up to 706 kg of dice ice per 24 hours, sustaining ice supply through the busiest service periods without interruption.
• Agion antimicrobial technology actively inhibits microbial growth and odour development, supporting food safety and hygiene standards.
• Precisely formed 22 x 22 x 22 mm dice cubes melt slowly and chill efficiently, elevating drink quality and food presentation.
• Water Sense adaptive purge control optimises water usage and reduces scale build-up, lowering operating costs and extending machine life.
• One-touch cleaning mode simplifies the sanitation process, reducing labour time and keeping the unit consistently hygienic.
• Front-accessible condenser air filter and a removable design make routine maintenance straightforward without specialist tools.
• External indicator lights communicate operational status and maintenance alerts at a glance, minimising downtime.
• Modular head-only design allows pairing with appropriate Scotsman storage bins, giving operators flexibility to match capacity to their specific needs.
• Air-cooled condensing system requires no additional water cooling infrastructure, simplifying installation in a wide range of commercial settings.
