Description

** FOR MARKET RESEARCH PURPOSE ONLY **

The Bowling Center requires the purchase of one (1) commercial-grade, self-propelled bowling lane maintenance machine to support daily bowling operations and ensure proper upkeep of bowling lanes. The machine shall be capable of automatically applying lane conditioner (oil) and cleaning bowling lanes using programmable lane patterns to maintain lane performance, consistency, and longevity.



The machine shall be battery operated and equipped with lane-to-lane walking capability, allowing it to move independently between lanes without manual transport. The system shall support multiple oil pattern configurations for recreational bowling, league play, and tournament operations. The machine shall include integrated Wi-Fi connectivity and mobile application functionality for pattern management, updates, diagnostics, and operational monitoring.



At a minimum, the machine shall include the following features:




  • Tank light

  • Mobile app integration

  • Glide lane conditioner

  • Sprayless cleaning system

  • Battery-operated functionality

  • Integrated Wi-Fi connectivity

  • Lane-to-lane walking capability

  • Oil pattern access and pattern integration

  • Removable vacuum motor

  • Large waste recovery tank

  • Easy-change squeegee cartridge

  • Multi-adjustment squeegee

  • Six (6) variable drive speed settings

  • Two (2) auto-aligning lane whiskers

  • Front safety object detection system



The machine shall be designed for commercial bowling center use and capable of supporting continuous daily operations. Failure to maintain bowling lanes with an appropriate lane conditioning machine may result in premature lane deterioration, inconsistent lane conditions, reduced customer satisfaction, and potential interruption of Bowling Center operations.



Salient characteristics attached.
