How the dispenser works
Follett’s Ice Pro bagging and dispensing system can operate in manual or semi-automatic ice dispensing and
bagging configurations. The Ice Pro dispenser features a blower to open bags for high volume, hands-free
dispensing, bag holder pins for use with wicketed bags, and a programmable dispense timer.
Ice is stored in the bin above the dispense auger. The upper and lower agitators break fused ice and direct it
into the auger for dispensing. When the timed or manual button is pressed, the dispense motor is activated.
This causes the auger assembly in the storage area to move ice to the dispense chute where it drops by
gravity into a bag or other container.
