icemakers

Frozen water machines

Icemakers are machines that produce ice, typically built into refrigerators or as standalone appliances in commercial settings.

Home icemakers automatically freeze water and dump cubes into a bin.

Commercial icemakers in restaurants and bars produce ice continuously in large quantities: The icemaker broke down during the dinner rush.
