The Brodbeck Basic Package

The Brodbeck Basic Package includes our tilting Chassis, Mareko Flat platen, and Basic Work Rest. This package uses the same chassis as our other packages except for the adjustable work rest. It is intended as a lower cost option without having to buy a lower quality or lower functionality machine. The Basic Package still allows our customers to use all our attachments. 

The chassis includes all parts & hardware items to assemble the grinder. This kit includes aluminum wheels: 2” Platen, 4” Tracking, and 5” Drive with 5/8” bore (other sizes can be requested at an additional cost).

We have many motor options. The 1 HP Variable Speed setup offers the best value and versatility.

Please keep the number of coats between 1 and 3 for easy assembly. VFD and/or Motor will arrive separately will need to be wired with instructions found here.

Powder Coated & Assembled: These grinders are powder coated, zinc plated, assembled, and tuned in our shop. Minimal final assembly is required due to transportation limitations. The required assembly consist of securing the motor, installing the drive wheel and tracking wheel. The installation should take no more than 10-20 min.

VFD and/or Motor will arrive separately and will be pre-wired and only need to be mounted. (1HP and 2HP VFD motor options will be wired to 110V unless otherwise requested.

Changing the input voltage from 110V to 220V is simple. Move the J1 jumper inside the variable speed control from the 115V position to the 230V position (this is how the ports are labeled) and provide your own 220 plug that matches your outlet.
