Pitside Strike

[kbusuego]

what skind of style of pinsetter is that?,its not a2,gs,gsx or amf,when he got a strike,why would a pinsetter goes down and goes up quickly?

[MrJasonh89]

@kbusuego It's an AMF 82-70. It uses what is called pindication for scoring. It feels for pins when it goes down to respot them. In the case of a strike, no pins are standing so it goes straight into a spot cycle. Most 82-70's in operation now use a camera for scoring.

what pinsetters are those? i have no idea.

The pindeck should not be come down when there is a strike cycle in amf 82-70 pinsetter?

@ALV524 Double detect cycle, witch seems all pinsetters do, nothing new here. Strike and pindeck feels for pins, no pins, then sets new rack.

@ALV524 The AMF 82-70 pinsetters were originally set up to bring the spotting table down after a strike was made since they did not have the electronic equipment when they were first produced. Many have since been upgraded.

The bowling center I go to has the exact same sweep and is an AMf pinsetter :|

@ 3amrepmike3 Me thinks there are Mendes Magnetic pins in the mix. 1 of 2 things here

1) The center had Mendes MM2001 or Qubica Mag3IT and had them replaced by 82-70s or

2) They must have gotten them from a center with said machines the when under due to said crappy pinsetters

Wow 82/70's that still have the original sweep bar and table wiring, I didn't think there were any that still exsist out there....

[EdmDude]

I seen 8290xli operate the same way, im not familier with amf, but they did the double dip thing going on.

The bar said : QuibicaAMF
