Section 4: Pinsetter Cycles
GENERAL INFORMATION
The GS-Series Pinsetter is capable of performing many different cycles in reaction to a bowler throwing
a ball.
Every cycle can be divided into three segments. Refer to
Figure 4-1.
The first segment is the detection
stroke. Refer to
Figure 4-2.
In this segment, the table is lowered to detect or find out the results of the
ball hitting the pins. The sweep segment occurs after the detection stoke once the table returns to home
position. During the sweep segment, deadwood is cleared from the pin deck and flat gutters. Refer to
Figure 4-3
. The final segment is the preparation stroke in which the pinsetter readies itself for the next
ball. The table may lower for a short stroke if pins are respotted back onto the pin deck if they were
lifted by the table during the detection segment or a long stroke if new pins are set on the pin deck in
preparation for a new frame. Refer to
Figure 4-4.
