The best way to improve your ping-pong skills is to play as much as possible, but sometimes a partner isn't always available. That's when you turn to the Butterfly Amicus 3000 Plus, an electronic table-tennis robot that helps you work on your game any hour of the day or night. The Amicus 3000 Plus is fully programmable, with custom options for speed, spin, and placement. Once you've programmed the robot, you'll be able to run dozens of standard and advanced ping-pong drills, including drills for developing basic strokes and switching skills, footwork drills, and drills that require random ball placement and/or ball types. You'll be showing off your ping-pong skills in no time.
Specific training features include a timer than runs the robot for one to 10 minutes, then pauses for up to two minutes before continuing; a frequency setting of up to 100 balls per minute to hone your quickness; an automatic frequency control (AFC) function that simulates a real game experience when drilling between top spin and under spin; a memory function that can store up to 99 separate training routines; an adjustable height option that shoots balls from different trajectories; and a remote on/off switch. The Amicus 3000 Plus, which comes with 144 Butterfly 3-Star balls and a ball scoop, carries a two-year warranty.

Hikosuke Tamasu founded Tamasu Co., Ltd. in the small town of Yanai City, Japan in 1950. This was the beginning of a company career which is almost unique in table tennis. A renowned international for Japan, Tamasu fulfilled his dream of a lifetime when he made his hobby his profession. At that time, he could hardly imagine that he would make Butterfly the leading brand worldwide. Creativity, durability, and a profound technical knowledge meant success. 0ver and over again he looked for new possibilities in order to optimize techniques by innovative playing material. Tamasu realized that each player is different and has strengths and weaknesses. By offering individual playing material Tamasu wanted to help players right from the beginning to emphasize their individuality. Since 1983 Butterfly has its own training and research center in Tokyo. Highly qualified scientists co-operate with world class players and coaches for the development of rubber and blade technology. Butterfly's rubbers and blades are used by more than half of the participants at World and European Championships.
