Shimpo RK-3D Pottery Wheel

SKU: P6328

The RK-3D represents the next generation of potter’s wheels. Responsive, high torque at all speeds, powerful and quiet. Not just quiet, but QUIET! This wheel is by far the quietest on the market; you can actually throw and hear yourself think at the same time…

The exterior of the RK-3D resembles the RK-10, but that’s where the similarities end! This new wheel features a brushless DC motor and direct drive (no belt) system. The motor is electronically controlled and operated by a fixed foot pedal and hand lever. It’s reversible, and the steel body is durable under all conditions. A 304 mm wheel-head and two-piece splash pan are included as standard features.

  • Drive System; direct drive DC brushless motor
  • 45 kg centring.
  • 304 mm light alloy casting wheel-head, drilled for bat pins.
  • Attached foot pedal with speed lever.
  • Virtually quiet; no belts, no vibration.
  • Wheel-head acts as a banding wheel when the pedal is at stop.
  • Pedal stops the wheel head immediately; no belt means no extra rotation when stopped.
  • Higher torque; no belts.
  • Maintains a specific set speed when stepping away to centre, even with slow speeds with 45 kg of clay.

Specifications:

  • Accommodate left- and right-handed users.
  • The Shimpo RK3D Potter's Wheel features a powerful 1/2HP (400W) motor (AC230V 50Hz single phase).
