The StrikeZone features 3 Iron Mike Machines set to throw Slow (40 mph), Medium (65 mph), and Fast (85 mph).

These machines are fully automatic and hold 600 balls-no other person is needed to feed balls.

Unlike wheel machines, they feature an arm mechanism which reproduces the actual motion of a live pitcher, allowing batters to work on their timing as well as mechanics.
