INTERNAL AUGER DESIGN
Hoshizaki Flakers and DCM’s use an internal auger system
to provide high quality crisp flakes and cubelet ice. The
evaporator cylinder and auger are made of anti-magnetic
stainless steel. This higher quality stainless steel elimnates
pitting caused by harmful minerals in the water. This main-
tains a smooth surface to reduce ristriction to ice flow
providing consistant production and quality.
The picture below is a generic breakdown of the F/DCM
evaporator assembly. The extruding head # 9 and cutter
#12 can be exchanged so that this Flaker assembly will
produce Cubelet style (chunklet) ice like the DCM applica-
tion. The sleeve type alignment bearings are pressed into
the housing # 4 and extruding head # 9. The mechanical
seal # 6 and “O” ring # 5 seal the lower end of the evapo-
rator system.
