How an air hockey table machine typically works:

1. Playing Surface: The playing surface is usually made of a durable material such as plastic or acrylic. It is perforated with a series of tiny holes that allow air to flow through, creating a cushion of air.

2. Air Blower: Beneath the playing surface, there is an air blower or fan system that pumps air through the tiny holes. This constant airflow reduces friction and allows the puck to float smoothly on the surface.

3. Puck and Mallets: The game involves two players who each have a mallet (also called a striker or paddle) and a puck. The puck is a small, round disc usually made of plastic or nylon. The mallets have a flat bottom surface, enabling players to strike the puck.

4. Scoreboard: Most air hockey tables have an electronic scoreboard built into the table, displaying the score and time remaining in the game. The scoreboard keeps track of the score as players score goals.

5. Goal Slots: At both ends of the table, there are goal slots or pockets. The objective of the game is to use the mallet to strike the puck into the opponent's goal while defending your own goal.

6. Game Mechanics: The game starts with the puck placed at the center of the table. Players stand at opposite ends of the table and attempt to strike the puck into their opponent's goal. The puck moves quickly due to the air cushion, and players must use their mallets to hit the puck with enough force and accuracy to score goals.

7. Scoring: When a player successfully strikes the puck into the opponent's goal, they score a point. The scoreboard updates the score accordingly. The game usually has a time limit, and the player with the highest score at the end of the time limit wins.

Here are some common features :

1. Electronic Scoreboard: Many air hockey tables have built-in electronic scoreboards that display the score and time remaining in the game. This feature eliminates the need for manual scorekeeping and adds a professional touch to the game.

2. LED Lighting Effects: Some air hockey tables incorporate LED lighting effects to make the game more visually appealing. These lights can be integrated into the playing surface, around the edges of the table, or even on the mallets and pucks, creating an exciting and immersive atmosphere.

3. Sound Effects and Music: To further enhance the gaming experience, air hockey tables may include sound effects and music. These can range from simple beeps and puck collision sounds to more elaborate audio effects that add excitement and immersion to the gameplay.
