Paddle Palace S4W Pro overcomes limitations of other robots

If you have used other robots on the market, you likely have been frustrated by their limitations. For example, maybe you could not vary the spins during a sequence, such as alternating topspin and underspin. Perhaps you could not designate the spots that you want the ball to land on the table. Maybe you could not set the robot to shoot a short ball and long ball in the same playing sequence. Maybe you wanted the robot to serve a short underspin then finish out the point with topspin drives to specific landing spots, but disappointingly you could not set up the exact training sequence you need. Maybe you wanted the robot to emulate the variety of real spins of a human player, but the robot just was not capable of no-spin or variations of light spin or strong spin shots. Maybe balls got stuck or hesitated in the robot, and you prefer to have smooth, uninterrupted play. Now, with the Paddle Palace S4W Pro Robot, you can have all these features you were missing before, plus more!

Two heads and four throw wheels for outstanding sequencing options

The innovative S4W Robot has two heads, each with two throw wheels. Both heads, and the four throw wheels, are all independently programmable, allowing you great flexibility in designing playing patterns and practice options.

You can program a seamless combination of topspin and underspin (or side-spin or no-spin) shots in the same play sequence. The robot can shoot combinations of short and long balls, strong and weak balls, or high and low balls in one sequence. Plus, you choose the landing spots, as well as the speed and throw frequency.

Part of the reason the Paddle Palace S4W Robot can do so much is the option to use one or both heads to produce the desired practice patterns. Using both heads of S4W Pro, you can set the number of times you want each head to deliver a ball to a specific spot with a desired spin, frequency and speed. For example, set head #1 to produce a topspin ball 3 times to your selected landing spots and head #2 to produce 4 underspin balls to a different, or the same, landing spot. Each head takes its turn producing the desired ball to the selected landing spot as many times as you dictate.

Another advantage of having two robot heads is that you can set up a realistic serve and volley sequence. You can set one head to reproduce a realistic serve that hits the robot side of the table first, just like a human serve. And then the robot completes the sequence with volleys from the 2nd head.

30 preset sequences
In addition to the player’s ability to set up their own serving sequences, the S4W Pro provides a choice of 30 preset sequences.

Random sequence mode
When the player presses the “Sequences in Random” key the robot will randomly select one of 30 preset sequences and then rearrange the serving order for a new sequence. This random selection has the potential of producing over 60,000 different kinds of serving sequences.

Memory function
A memory function saves your current settings. When you turn the robot on for your next practice session, your previously saved sequence is ready to go.

Remote control box
The functions of the S4W Pro are set from the remote control box which is conveniently located on the player's end of the table. The simple, straight forward design of the control box makes it easy for the player to set and adjust all the options. Serve or shot sequence, ball speed, degree of spin, frequency of delivery, number of balls to be played per practice pattern, and landing spots are all accessible and adjustable from the control box.

Ball counter
The ball counter on the control box allows you to set the number of balls (up to 999) that will shoot for any playing sequence.

Ball catch nets and recycling system
The Paddle Palace Robots come with a ball catch net collection system that catches the balls and directs them for recycling back into the robot for continuous play.

Easy to set up and operate
The robot comes ready to play. No tools are required -- just take it out of the box, roll it to the table, slip on the net, and you are ready to go. The robot rolls easily from the table when you need to put it away.

High-quality, durable, with one year warranty
The S4W Pro is a solidly built, reliable machine completely supported by a 30-day money-back guarantee and one year limited warranty.

FAQ: S4W, is each head able to have its spin/speed adjusted during use?

Once you have set the spins on the each of the two manual heads the spins do not change on the S4W Robot. You have an infinite choices of speed and spin for each head but once set they stay the same until you stop the exercise and go back to the head and change it. You can program the robot to shoot the first shot to a certain landing spot and then have the second head shoot a different spin to a different landing spot and then have the first head shoot its ball to a different spot (than the first shot) and then have the second head shoot a ball to a different spot than its first shot, but this is very complicated to do. Most customers set the specific spins they want on each head then choose one of the preprogrammed landing spot sequences for placement of the ball.

FAQ: How does it compare with Paddle Palace H2W Touch Pro?

The S4W has two different robot heads. The left head can do one spin setting while the right head does a different spin. Once the heads are set up, they stay the same. On the S4W you can program the head to shoot to 11 different landing spots and can program the other head to do the same. Most customers set up the spin on the heads then run one of the preprogrammed sequences to do the work of ball placement.

The S4W is better at serving than the H2W, so if you want to do serve and volley exercises this is the better choice of the two. However, you only have a choice of two spins in any one exercise.

The H2W uses motors attached to the single head to change the spin and speed with an easy to use touch screen that controls everything. Just tell the robot the placement of the 1st ball, then the spin, then program the second ball. You can also do a 3rd ball in your exercise (you can program up to 9 different spins in an exercise). The other thing the H2W has, along with the 30 Pre-programmed sequences, is the ability to memorize 9 custom sequences of the customer's design.

The H2W is considered easier to use.

Throw Wheels- One, Two, or Four?

Robots with one throw wheel can shoot topspin, underspin, and sidespin. With two throw wheels, the two independently controlled motors make it possible for independent spin and speed settings. This results in a great range of spin options - light to heavy topspin, underspin, or sidespin - or no spin shots. Four throw wheels provides the greatest versatility of all, including serve and volley in the same training sequence.

Oscillation - Random (R), Controlled (C), Programmable (P)

Controlled Oscillation means you can set the robot to hit alternately only to the two widest points in the angle rang, plus you can set width of the angle. With Random Oscillations, the robot hits to the inner angles as well as the widest angles. With Random Oscillation, where the ball lands depends on the frequency and speed settings you have chosen. Programmable Oscillation is the most versatile. It achieves everything Controlled and Random Oscillation does, plus you can program sequences of your choice for where the ball lands!

LCD Touch Screen

The LCD Touch Screen is a very easy and intuitive menu-based interface to control all functions of the robot.

Serve & Volley Sequences

The Robot can be set to serve and volley in the same sequence. So, for example, you can set a sequence to begin with a serve, then shoot volleys to specific landing spots with spins of your choice for a realistic training pattern.

Topspin/Underspin Sequence

The robot can shoot topspin shots and underspin shots (and other spins) in consecutive shots in the same sequence.

Spin Indicator

The Spin Indicator is located just under the shooting head. Before the ball shoots, it shows you the spin type on next shoot: topspin, underspin, right-sidespin, left-sidespin, right-side/topspin, left-side/topspin, right-side/underspin, left-side/underspin, or no-spin/deadball.
