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.
