WHY DO YOU USE ELECTRIC MOTORS?
Electric motors provide high power in a compact form, making them ideal for confined spaces where fumes are restricted. They also require minimal maintenance compared to traditional engines.
CAN THE MACHINE STILL BE OPERATED IF THE DISPLAY ON THE CONTROL BOX IS DAMAGED OR AFFECTED BY SUNLIGHT?
Yes, the machine can still be operated even if the display is damaged or affected by sunlight. Brokk machines are designed to maintain functionality and uptime despite display issues.
CAN THE BROKK MACHINE BE OPERATED IF THE BATTERY IN THE REMOTE CONTROL IS FLAT?
Yes, you can plug in the control cable to operate the machine while the battery charges, ensuring continuous operation.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO CHANGE TOOLS?
Tool changes on a Brokk machine are quick and straightforward, typically taking only a few minutes by one operator.
WHAT IS THE REACH OF THE REMOTE CONTROL?
Brokk machines use a radio link system with a reach of up to 300 meters. This proven technology is reliable and widely used in heavy industries for its range and dependability.
DO I NEED TRAINING TO OPERATE?
While local regulations vary, Brokk strongly recommends attending Brokk Academy training. This training enhances operator efficiency, reduces spare parts consumption, and increases machine uptime.
IS DAILY MAINTENANCE TIME-CONSUMING?
No, daily maintenance is designed to be quick and easy without the need to lift covers. This design simplifies upkeep and extends the machine’s lifespan.
HOW CAN THE BROKK MACHINE BE LIFTED?
Brokk machines feature dedicated lifting points on the outriggers. Optional lifting eyes are also available to assist with lifting.
HOW LONG CAN THE POWER CABLE BE?
Typically, power cables up to 100 meters are acceptable. For specific requirements, please consult with your Brokk representative.
ARE BROKK MACHINES AVAILABLE WITH ONLY ELECTRIC MOTOR ALTERNATIVE?
No, some Brokk models are also available with diesel motor option which allows for a completely wireless operation.
DOES THE BROKK MACHINES HAVE OPTION TO REDUCE DUST?
Yes, all Brokk breakers (except BHB 55) have an option to spray water to bind silica dust.
WHY NOT JUST USE CONVENTIONAL EXCAVATORS FOR DEMOLITION?
Brokk machines are designed for demolition with heavy hydraulic attachments. The productivity is much higher and according to customers up to 5 times more powerful than same size excavators. The remote control puts the operator in a position to do controlled demolition and cut rebars for instance. Brokk machines are electric driven and which open up possibilities to work inside buildings with no fumes. If equipped with concrete crushers you can do silent demolition 24/7 without disturbance to the surrounding and speed up the project. The low weight makes it possible to work on upper floors with less, or no need for propping.
WHY NOT JUST USE CONCRETE CUTTING EQUIPMENT TO REMOVE CONCRETE INSIDE THE BUILDINGS?
Brokk machines are a complement to cutting and coring which can be costly and time consuming because of the consumables and set up time. Often these jobs can be replaced by Brokk machines and the there will be no heavy slabs to discharge from the jobsite and no water required inside the building.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO CLIMB STAIRS WITH BROKK MACHINES?
Yes, all Brokk machines can climb stairs.
CAN BROKK MACHINES BREAK ROCK?
Yes, Brokk machines are available with many tools to break rock. Scabblers for soft rock, drilling and splitting for very hard rock. Please look at the attachment pages.
WHAT SIZE OF GENERATOR IS REQUIRED?
We would recommend you to check with the supplier of generators but normally a ballpark indication would be 2,5 to 3 times the power (kW) of the Brokk machine.
DOES ALL BROKK MACHINES REQUIRE 63 A FUSE?
No, the smallest Brokk 60 and Brokk 110 can be operated on only 16 A (with reduced power for Brokk 110) and even the powerful Brokk 170 can be operated on only 32 A
