About Us

Welcome to Infinity

We are a design & build bowling company that manufactures custom themed DuckPin Social Bowling or Full-Sized TenPin bowling alleys

We stand ready to build YOUR system!

Bowling is Infinity’s ONLY Business

Infinity manufactures the most realistic bowling alleys on the market today. Pinsetters, lanes, pins, custom ball returns & custom balls, we provide it all.

We prefer to custom design a bowling system for your style, your footprint and your theme, as opposed to the “one-size-fits-all” canned repetitive themes.

MiniLane the "Original" Short-Lane Bowling Attraction

Infinity started the short-lane social bowling craze 25 years ago with the original small-ball bowler MiniLane™ a 50% to scale tenpin bowling system.

MiniLane’s™ Midway Bowling was custom developed for the Six Flags Midway. A carnival barker attendant awards prizes for Strikes.

Infinity has appeared twice to install its home bowling alley for the HGTV/DiY Network.

Ninja-Bowl was featured on Rob Van Winkle’s hit DiY network series, “The Vanilla Ice Project.”

Full-Size TenPin premiered on “Rev Run’s Renovation.” Hip-Hop legend Joseph Simmons family basement is transformed into a national show-piece.

DiamonDuck Bowling is Bowling on Steroids

Social DuckPin Bowling is by far our most popular attraction. All of our knowledge & expertise has led to an un-matched authentic DuckPin Bowling experience.

Infinity’s Diamond DuckPin Bowling™ is bowling on steroids. Non-stop fun & action for all ages and demographics. This is America’s NEW bowling alley.

Lane Look & Finish

Our most popular surface is the traditional maple look Laminate. The surface is 100% phenolic, the same lane composition used by regulation bowling.
The playing surface is designed to take repeated abuse it will not ball dent or scar, it will take a pounding day after day.
Easy to clean with cleaner formulated for maintaining a bowling lane. When cleaned regularly you will have a like new surface year after year.

Real Wood Upgrade

Glow Lanes

An Ultra-Violet image is layered as part of the lane laminating process, when exposed to black light the lane is transformed to a moonlit playing surface that Glows-in-the-Dark
In regular white light your lane has it’s traditional maple wood look.
With a flip of a light switch you can change the ambiance & take advantage of a completely different market niche.

Automatic String Pinsetting

Built Like a Tank – 50 year plus life cycle
Rugged Machine Tool – Simplistic Design
This is the “Original” String Pinsetter

The SES pinsetter evolved from the original Schmid string machine.

Over 60 years in the making, this is German engineering at its BEST. There are sites in the US that have SES/Schmid pinsetters running over 50 years! ZERO planned obsolescence here.

Simplicity of design is the key to our RUGGED machine tool that is engineered to last. There are 90% FEWER moving parts on a Infinity/SES string pinsetter.

Built like a Tank with 90% Fewer Moving Parts

Traditional pinsetters have mechanisms to grip and grab each pin to set them one by one. These antiquated systems REQUIRE an additional set of 10 pins for an upper moving staging deck, plus there are many more moving parts, the EXPENSE goes ON & ON. Infinity/SES string pinsetters ELIMINATES all of these moving parts!

Like a fishing reel there is NO drag to cast the line

When a ball knocks down pins on the Infinity/SES pinsetter, the pins FLY with ZERO restraint. The machine pulls all 10 pins back up into the centering deck and then sets them back down. Pins are back on spot & ready for the next ball. The process is quick & amazingly simple.

No Need for a High Skilled Pinsetter Mechanic

There is NO NEED for a specialized mechanic. Budget a few minutes each week for required adjustments & cleaning.

Scoring & Lane Management

System Graphics can be customized
Your images, Logos & Color Schemes
Tablet & Cell Phone Interface Apps

Computerized Score Keeping

You can Still Score Automatically
No Need for Pencil & Paper

You can SCORE automatically with our computerized score keeping. Every ball thrown is tabulated real time on High Definition score grids. Animated action graphics highlight special events like strikes, spares, splits, even your gutter-balls.

LED monitor displays can be mounted over the lanes from your ceiling or fixtured on or on top the front façade.

Our stand-alone scoring system does not require a central desk for your guest to play. The system can be configured to start via GAME tokens, BILL acceptors, CREDIT cards or third party swipe systems.

System parameters allow for play by the GAME or by TIME. Even arcade tickets can be dispensed for strikes, spares or high scores.

Add a Tablet to enter players names, correct scores, reset pins or add / delete players.
