These include fully integrated guarding, efficient and safe floor operation from the rear, and the tools to work with the machines safely. Moreover, when EDGE String is installed with BES X, the scoring components mount behind the machines—no more climbing up on curtain walls.
REASON 6: Operational Ease with Tech Wizard
Operating QubicaAMF EDGE String is easy. Tech Wizard app's unmatched notification and guidance features make it even easier.

Hosting USBC leagues and tournaments? Choose USBC-Approved mode, for authentic pin action and scoring in-line with free-fall, plus tracking through Conqueror X. Casual play? EDGE String effortlessly shortens the strings, unleashing maximum performance.
REASON 4: A Better Workplace Environment
Finding qualified bowling technicians to maintain free-fall machines is getting harder each year, and when machines aren’t running reliably it leads to upset guests – which is not only bad for business, but also for staff morale and retention. Many centers with EDGE String machines report employees are happier, less stressed, and more likely to stay because EDGE String’s reliability has meant fewer upset guests, fewer refunds and an improved workplace environment. And operation is low stress thanks to an intuitive graphical machine controller, plug and play design, error-proof adjustment gauges, best-in-class safety features, Tech Wizard app guidance, and cloud-based software upgradability.
REASON 3: Supercharge Your Profitability
Operating older free-fall machines is one of the biggest costs of offering bowling. Switching to QubicaAMF EDGE String slashes those operating costs. Typical centers with EDGE String pinspotters are seeing 80-90% lower maintenance labor costs, 65%-85% lower parts costs, and 70%-90% lower electrical costs—thanks to EDGE String’s exclusive, ultra-efficient, run-on-demand 24V DC in-line gear motors. Additionally, EDGE String uses less parts, freeing cash that's been tied up in parts inventory. Plus, hiring and training expenses will get lower because it’s easier to find, and quicker to train, new employees on EDGE String than free-fall machines.
Overall, EDGE String centers are saving between $2,750 and $4,000 per lane per year in labor, parts and energy costs and seeing ROI within 3.5 years. Often the switch to EDGE String can essentially be done for free because the operational savings are close to, or exceed, the monthly loan payment.
REASON 2: Enhanced Guest Experience
EDGE String delivers an unparalleled bowling experience frame after frame. Only EDGE String combines a full coverage pin shield that completely hides pins during cycling, a dark pit area which masks the strings and highlights pins, and CenterPunch deck lighting that interacts with on-lane events. And EDGE String’s industry-best frames-per-stop reliability means an end to lanes down for extended periods–leading to happier bowlers.
A USBC-Approved version of EDGE String is available - offering precise free-fall like play. Bowler score averages earned on USBC-Approved EDGE String are recognized by USBC, and are interchangeable with scores earned on traditional free-fall machines, for both USBC league and tournament play.
