Mini Claw Machine - Claw Strength Setup

I am not a expert but here is how I set the claw strength on the mini claw machines. Maybe there is some information in here to help you out.

Super helpful. Thank you!

[@wonderdogger]

Really helpful, thank you

[@VegasPoolGuy1]

Really good explanation of the settings. 👍

[@bishopvending1848]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tinvo9376]

so if I want to win each game the PR should be 1? and automatically the claw with 48% strength will be strong?

[@tinvo9376]

Can you make a video where the PR is 1?

[@carloscortez7251]

Hi do you have the manual for this machine you can maybe help me out with.

[@tinvo9376]

Does F stand for Fair>? becuase the guaranteed mode starts with a G

[@tinvo9376]

WAIT A SECOND 8:50 During gameplay I thought you had to press the button once for the claw to drop and grab the prize? or you have to hold the button during setting?

Hey guys, I got a couple questions for ya. -Where did you order these machines from? I've seen them around but at very different price points and was wary of the quality of some of the cheaper ones I've found. -What type of prizes/plush work well in these tiny machines? Those pokeballs seem to work well, is that what you're going to use as the prizes in these machines? Where do you find good "mini" prizes (like those pokeballs) for these size machines? I'm familiar with most of the big vending supply companies but I haven't really seen any prizes or plush that are specifically made for this size claw machine.

[@bishopvending1848]

Alot of people buy stuff from china directly. As far as the machines They seem to upgrade from time to time so that's where there is a variety.

@@bishopvending1848 Gotcha... As for my questions...?

[@soundoverdose3134]

@@MoreEffinCowbell Any plush greater than 15cm in size is gonna be very difficult for the mini claw to grab on to. Though there's some nuance to that and it's good to pay close attention to the shape of your prizes. Width is also important. Inspect the plushies and look for good grabbing points on the plush and take their potential weight into account as well. Those grabbing points could be the head , ears torso legs a hat etc. Just use your best judgement.

Hello, so I just got my mini claw machine and played it for like an hour so far but then now the claw doesn't close anymore when going down to grab stuff, any tips on what's wrong and how to fix this???

[@bishopvending1848]

First I would check the settings on the display and make sure you have it set up correctly then I would check the wires at the gantry for the claw to see if it came loose (There are 2 wires that will provide voltage to the claw). Then I would check the voltages at those 2 wires for that same amount that the display has.If you get the voltages at the gantry then there is a problem with the claw. You could then call where you got the mini and see if they can replace the bad parts.

[@InfinitePlush]

I've tried setting these machines similar but my voltage setting only go up to 24. I knew there was a difference. How do you get the claw to close while in the settings? You said when it's on "c1" but I don't understand how you get it to close like that.

[@bishopvending1848]

When you are on C1 then you press the button and the claw will close.

@@bishopvending1848 doesn't work with my machines....

[@lifangamusement6770]

​@@InfinitePlush your machines are old version, Bishop vending's machines are the latest version

[@InfinitePlush]

These settings are more than double what was needed on my last machines to secure a pokeball.. These settings are difficult to do with mixed plush. With the machine set this way, almost every play will secure a plush or something lighter than the balls eating your profits away.

[@bishopvending1848]

If you set the weak claw to the lightest plush/toy then it will not pick up the lightest one. Set Strong to heaviest plush/toy. Set weak to lightest plush/toy.

[@InfinitePlush]

@@bishopvending1848 I'll give this a shot.
