Crystal Tips G Series G46 Ice Machine 46kg/Day

The Crystal Tips G46 is a self-contained ice maker producing up to 46kg of ice per day, with an onboard 15kg storage bin. Built in stainless steel and designed for compact installation, it is intended for commercial settings where reliable ice production is needed without a large equipment footprint. The machine produces a consistent ice form suited to cold beverages, counter service, and general hospitality use.

In day-to-day operation, the G46 handles the demands of a steady service environment well. It is well suited to sites with moderate throughput — a busy café, a hotel bar, a restaurant service counter — where ice demand is consistent but not at the scale requiring a remote or modular ice system. The stainless steel body holds up to the humidity and cleaning routines of a working kitchen without deterioration over time.

A practical aspect of this model is its app connectivity via the Ice World platform, which allows operators to schedule ice production around service periods, monitor the machine remotely, and initiate automated ozone sanitisation wash cycles. This reduces the manual overhead of routine maintenance and supports compliance with hygiene standards. Other operational advantages include:

• Capacitive touch controls for standby and reset — straightforward to operate on the floor
• Ozone-based sanitisation cycle to help maintain internal hygiene standards
• Remote monitoring and scheduling via the Ice World app
• Accessible internal layout for routine cleaning and servicing
• Compact stainless steel body that integrates neatly into tight back-bar or counter areas

The G46 requires a mains water connection and a drain, as well as an appropriate power supply — the installation space should allow adequate ventilation clearance, as with all refrigeration-based ice machines. At 38kg the unit is manageable to position, though it is worth confirming floor clearances and access routes before delivery. It is an air-cooled machine, so placement in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources is advisable to maintain production efficiency.

This model is a strong fit for smaller hospitality operations — independent bars, café counters, hotel rooms, or front-of-house service stations — where a self-contained unit with a reasonable daily output and a modest bin capacity is the practical choice. For sites with significantly higher demand, or where ice storage needs to be separated from the production unit, a higher-capacity model from the range may be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether the G46's daily output and bin size align with your service volumes or installation constraints, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
