This application comes to us courtesy of another of our International distributors. An Amusement Park has as one of its attractions a ride/game where the riders get into a “car” and shoot small, yellow balls at a large wall made to look like swiss cheese. The holes are of 3 different sizes and the point value increases as the holes get smaller in diameter. Each car is equipped with a firing cannon to launch the balls at the wall. Once the balls make their trip to the bottom of the wall of cheese, they are collected from a central location and must be transported back to a hopper for replenishing the cannons on each individual car. Model 6084 2″ Aluminum Line Vac was selected to transport the balls back up into the main feed hopper. A wand and length of hose are used to suck the balls up to the hopper by ride personnel.
