Overview and Features
Naixer TH‑1200B 1200 lb Ice Machine | Commercial Cube Ice Maker Machine
Designed for Operations That Demand Reliable, Commercial Full-Cube Ice at Scale
The TH-1200B is Naixer‘s high-capacity commercial full cube ice machine, purpose-built for restaurants, busy hotel kitchens, convenience store chains, cafes, and any foodservice operation where running out of ice during peak service isn’t an option — it delivers 1,200 lbs (545 kg) of crystal-clear 22×22×22mm full cube ice per day.
Full cube ice is the traditional choice for a reason. Because the cubes are solid and dense, they melt slowly — drinks stay cold longer without getting watered down. This is critical in commercial settings where beverages might sit for a few minutes before being served. You also use less ice per drink: full cubes hold up well in bulk storage and high-volume bagging operations.
With a 300 kg built-in insulated bin, you can store a full day‘s production on-site. No external bin purchases. No complex assembly. Just reliable, clear hard ice when you need it.
A Commercial 1200 lb Ice Machine That Arrives Complete — No Hidden Bin Cost
The Naixer TH‑1200B is a self‑contained commercial 1200 lb ice machine engineered for high‑volume foodservice operations, large hotel kitchens, and banquet facilities that cannot afford to run short on ice during peak service. It delivers up to 1,200 lbs (545 kg) of crystal‑clear, hard 22×22×22mm full cube ice every 24 hours and stores it all inside a built‑in 300 kg (660+ lb) insulated storage bin. Because the bin is integrated into the machine, you avoid the $800–$2,000 hidden cost that modular systems from brands like Hoshizaki, Manitowoc, and Scotsman often add as a separate bin purchase.
Full cube ice is the most versatile commercial ice shape. Its low surface‑to‑volume ratio means it melts more slowly than any other common ice type, keeping beverages cold without dilution during long banquet services or extended hotel breakfast hours. The TH‑1200B’s 440‑tray evaporator system — one of the highest tray counts in its class — ensures every cube is consistently clear, hard, and uniform in size.
What sets the TH‑1200B apart from other 1200 pound ice machines:
Self‑contained design. The ice maker and storage bin are built as one unit. One delivery, one set of utility connections, one warranty. No separate bin invoice.
Dual cooling flexibility. Choose air‑cooled for well‑ventilated kitchens or water‑cooled for environments where ambient temperatures regularly exceed 32°C (90°F). Both configurations deliver the same rated output.
A 3‑year full machine warranty that covers core systems and key components. In this capacity class, a major repair can cost thousands — and those failures most frequently occur in years two through five, well after a standard 12‑month warranty has expired.
How the TH‑1200B Produces Crystal‑Clear Full Cube Ice at 1,200 Pounds Per Day
The TH‑1200B uses a horizontal evaporator plate with 440 individual ice‑forming cells. Water flows over the chilled plate and freezes in layers from the outside of each cell inward. This directional freezing pushes dissolved air and minerals out of the cube rather than trapping them inside, producing ice that is crystal‑clear from edge to edge — not cloudy in the center. When each batch reaches the correct thickness, the ice releases and drops directly into the built‑in storage bin. A level sensor monitors the bin and cycles production on and off automatically, maintaining a steady supply without over‑producing.
The refrigeration system pairs a high‑efficiency imported compressor with R404A refrigerant and is sized to hold rated output through extended operating hours. The air‑cooled configuration uses zero water for condenser cooling; the water‑cooled option is available for installations where heat and confined space would compromise air‑cooled performance. Our application engineers can help determine the right configuration for your site.
For routine maintenance, the TH‑1200B’s modular internal layout provides straightforward access to the evaporator, water circuit, and bin surfaces. Descaling with nickel‑safe cleaner, sanitizing, and quarterly condenser brushing are the primary care tasks — all covered step by step in our Naixer ice machine cleaning guide.
Where a 1200 lb Ice Machine Fits in a Commercial Kitchen
A 1200 lb commercial ice machine like the TH‑1200B is sized for operations that move ice by the pallet. A 300‑room hotel with a lobby bar, room service, and weekend banquet operations can easily consume 800–1,200 lbs of ice daily. A large convention center, a casino, or a multi‑venue event space needs a machine that runs continuously without pausing. The TH‑1200B’s 1,200‑pound daily output — backed by 660 pounds of built‑in storage — keeps those operations supplied through the busiest shifts.
Because the bin is built in, the machine occupies a single footprint and requires only one set of utility connections. This simplifies kitchen layout and equipment planning for large facilities where space and infrastructure are already fully allocated. For hotels, sizing generally follows the industry standard of about five pounds of ice per room per day, plus additional capacity for banquet and bar service. Our hotel ice machine sizing guide covers those calculations in detail.

Precision Manufacturing: Where 300+ Patents Meet 200,000+ Units of Annual Capacity
Every TH-1200B leaves Naixer’s 30,000 m² ISO9001-certified smart factory — a vertically integrated facility where automated laser cutting ensures millimeter-precise component fit and IoT-driven quality control monitors each unit through multi-stage validation.
Before shipping, every TH-1200B undergoes:
Automated cooling performance verification
Pressure and electrical safety testing
Precision refrigeration circuit leak detection
Extended “burn-in” testing under simulated extreme conditions — sample units from every batch are validated to ensure the durability our 300+ patents promise
This isn‘t commodity manufacturing. Naixer serves 5,000+ commercial clients across 100+ countries, including international chains (KFC, Luckin Coffee) and specialty operations. Annual production capacity exceeds 200,000 units — giving us the scalability to support single-location installations and national chain deployments with equal reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much ice does the TH‑1200B produce per day?
A: Under standard test conditions, the TH‑1200B produces up to 1,200 lbs (545 kg) of crystal‑clear full cube ice every 24 hours. Actual output depends on ambient temperature, water inlet temperature, and the cooling configuration you select. Our application engineers can provide a site‑specific estimate.
Q: Does the TH‑1200B come with a storage bin?
A: Yes. The TH‑1200B is a self‑contained 1200 lb ice machine with a built‑in 300 kg (660+ lb) insulated storage bin. No separate bin purchase is required, unlike modular systems from many premium brands.
Q: Should I choose air‑cooled or water‑cooled for the TH‑1200B?
A: If your kitchen has adequate ventilation and ambient temperatures stay below 32°C (90°F), air‑cooled is the more economical choice — it uses zero water for condenser cooling. If your kitchen regularly exceeds that temperature or is tightly enclosed, water‑cooled will maintain rated output more reliably.
Q: How does the TH‑1200B compare to a Hoshizaki or Scotsman 1200 lb ice machine?
A: All three produce commercial‑grade full cube ice with strong warranties. The TH‑1200B is self‑contained with a built‑in bin, whereas comparable Hoshizaki and Scotsman models are often modular and require a separate bin purchase. Naixer’s factory‑direct pricing and 3‑year full machine warranty offer a compelling value proposition.
