The heart of the Snip is its tool-free switching between two operating modes—a market innovation. Users can seamlessly switch between classic lateral edging directly at the boards and frontal milling of ice mounds. This makes the Snip a versatile tool that efficiently processes not only the edge areas but also uneven surfaces on the ice.
Technology
Practical details such as LED work lights, a mechanical depth indicator, a support wheel for easy maneuvering, and an intuitive operating concept complete the package. The Snip is type-approved and thus meets the highest safety standards.
Introduction
From mobile ice rinks to large arenas – Snip combines compact design with modern, emission-free technology.
The most innovative feature: quick, tool-free switching between two operating modes. Mill laterally along the boards, or frontally, to remove ice buildup and unevenness. With its integrated drive, adjustable speed, and certified safety, Snip is a versatile and precise board mill for maintaining any ice surface.

Ice Edger
WM technics is known in the world of ice maintenance for their innovations in driverless ice resurfacing technology. However, at their innovation hub in Bolzano, they understand that certain tasks still require manual workforce. For example, on mobile ice rinks, where large ice resurfacing machines with their automatic ice edgers cannot operate. Does this mean sacrificing new technologies and sophisticated designs? Not at all—as demonstrated by WM technics’ new Snip manual ice edger.
The heart of the Snip is its tool-free switching between two operating modes—a market innovation. Users can seamlessly switch between classic lateral edging directly at the boards and frontal milling of ice mounds. This makes the Snip a versatile tool that efficiently processes not only the edge areas but also uneven surfaces on the ice.
A robust, sound-insulated stainless-steel hood ensures safety and durability, protecting the machine while allowing for quiet operation. An innovative blade holder prevents the milling blades from breaking during collisions with metal or concrete—a crucial advantage for safe and uninterrupted operation.
Features
Snip sets new standards in manual ice edging. Combining a compact design with modern technology, it delivers flawless maintenance in every setting. Discover all the details.
Safety and protective features
At WM technics, safety and health protection always come first. A thorough and independent inspection carried out by Suva, the accredited and recognized Swiss certification body, confirms compliance with the European Directive 2006/42/EC, which regulates the level of protection against machinery-related accidents to ensure user safety.
Product Details
Powered by a high-performance DC motor with a 24V/130Ah battery, the Snip operates electrically and is therefore emission-free. A special feature is the drive wheel equipped with spikes, which automatically presses the machine gently against the boards, allowing for precise guidance along the rink perimeter. With 12 blades on a 352-mm disc, the Snip delivers a fine cutting pattern with a continuously adjustable planing depth from +10 mm to -8 mm.
Practical details such as LED work lights, a mechanical depth indicator, a support wheel for easy maneuvering, and an intuitive operating concept complete the package. The Snip is type-approved and thus meets the highest safety standards.
Ease of Maintenance
The entire machine technology is easily accessible just by lifting the cab. This means that mechanics can carry out their work quickly and cleanly, which in turn saves on time and service costs. Our team may also utilize remote monitoring through the optional WM Connect App to keep an eye on your vehicle and address any issues that may arise.
