Robot Delivery Machines

Ball Delivery and Return Machines

First I would like to ask you, if you could, to click on some of
the advertisements to the right of my blog because this is the
way I make money for writing this blog. I am not really doing
this for the money, but I would appreciate your help because
I could use the extra cash.

Now I would like to talk about some of the ball delivery and
return machines available. You can improve your game
greatly by using these machines.

The number one manufacturer of these machines is
undoubtably Newgy Industries in Gallatin, TN. They make
machines for all types of players. From beginners to highly
skilled players.

There are many good reasons to buy a robot or delivery and
return machine. One is that you will always have a partner even if you can't find anyone to play. Also you can use the
machine as long as you want. Hit thousands of balls where you would only hit hundreds with a human partner. Play any
time you get the urge. I know I get the urge to play more and
more when I use my Robo-pong machine that I bought from
Newgy. Another reason to get a machine is that you can work
yourself into terrific shape by playing against it. You can set
the machine to hit slow looping shots or fast shots that you
may have to play defensively on. I know I like to play the
looping shots to practice my slams. I do this over and over
and I really get a good workout. Set the machine to work on
your weaknesses. I set the machine to hit to my backhand with slow high shots that I have difficulty slamming. Some
machines have oscillations which I find extremely difficult
because they are probably for advanced players. You can
set the machine for top spin, underspin or side spin. It will
depend on how advanced you are if you can handle these
different spins. The machines are also excellent for beginners. They can deliver the ball very slow for the
beginning player. Table Tennis or Ping Pong is a great
sport for all players from 5 to 95. Unlike other sports there
are very few injuries resulting from ping pong. Ping Pong
is also a tremendous sport for hand to eye coordination. The
speed of a hard slam in ping pong is about 70 mph. The speed will decrease very fast so that defensive players have
a chance against the hard hitters in the sport.

The robots that Newgy Industries offer are the Robo-Pong 540, 1040 and 2040. Also if you have an older Robo-Pong
that uses the old 38mm balls you can get an upgrade to the
new 40mm balls for the price of $225.00. The Robo-Pong 540
is ideal for the beginner or intermediate player. The speed
and frequency of the ball is not as fast as the other models.
Also there is no oscillation. The Robo-Pong 540 comes with
many accessories included, including some of the parts that
the more expensive robots have. The cost of the 540 is $229.
If you are a more experienced player or have outgrown the
540 the Robo-Pong 1040 may be ideal for you. This robot
would be a good choice for the tournament player also. The
Robo-Pong 1040 comes with higher speeds and frequencies
of delivering the ball. It also has oscillation. Being more
difficult to play the Robo-Pong costs $359. This robot can also be used by beginners but is designed for players who
have competed and know how to hit various types of shots.
There are many accessories to the Robo-Pong 1040 such as
a bucket catching extension to keep play going a longer time,
and with all the robots you will also receive 48 orange 40mm
ping pong balls. Now If you think you have progressed enough and are now a serious player the Robo-Pong 2040 may be right for you. The 2040 can do everything that the
1040 can do and more. The 2040 comes with a retreival net
that catches your hits and recycles them back to the ball
thrower so you can have continuous action. There is a neat
optional Pong-Master for a fun target game which will sharpen
your skills at aiming at different targets on the table.
The complete package is the following:
Ball Thrower (w/Oscillation)
Recycling Net System
Side Net Extenders
Rubber Tips Packet
Full Size Control Box
Transformer
Connector Cable
Owner's Manual
Set-up Video Tape
48 Orange 40mm balls (USA only)
Training Book (USA only)

The entire Robo-Pong 2040 costs in the vicinity of $695.00.

Newgy Industries also sells Table Tennis equipment and
accessories for their Robo-Pong machines.
These machines may break down after repeated use but
if they are well taken care of mainly by cleaning and keeping
in good shape they will last a very long time. Newgy will also
give warranties for various times and they will personally fix
your product if it is broken due to a reasonable happening.
They may not fix a machine that was treated badly, like dropping or doing deliberate damage to the machine.
I have had my machine fixed twice and I was only charged
$10.00 each time. More information can be found at

  1. Very interesting content you have with table tennis robot. Lot of people think it's a waste of money to practice on robots. I think it's beneficial. Because it's best prepare for competition through practice.
