About Manitowoc

Manitowoc Ice (Manitowoc, WI / part of Welbilt) is one of the two most common commercial ice machine brands in Twin Cities foodservice. Indigo NXT half-dice cubers, Q-model and S-model machines, and CNF flakers run in restaurants, bars, hotels, and hospitals across the metro.

Indigo NXT controllers make diagnostics fast — they log fault history and walk you through the failure on the front panel. We carry the service mode plug and stock the high-failure parts so most calls finish in a single visit.
