The GS NXT is the result of years of experience, advanced engineering expertise and a unique ability to integrate the latest technology, said Mike Resterhouse, product manager.

The NXT, he said, delivers all of the advantages of the GS Series pinsetters, along with improvements that lower the cost of ownership, reduce labour requirements, enhance the guest experience and grow the proprietor’s business.

Noise is reduced by enhanced sound dampening and the machine height is recued by 25 per cent. Engineers have improved the access to all motors, drive train and a controller provides ease of maintenance and improved safety.

There is a touchscreen controller interface to improve error reporting, diagnostics, trouble-shooting and remote firmware installations that empower mechanic effectiveness.

In a statement, the company said the Brunswick Sync scoring and management system meant that bowlers can enjoy games and league training features that require complex pin arrangements and mechanics.
