Why Brokk is Built Better

The PROCESSING INDUSTRY is no place for wimpy equipment. The harsh tasks workers face every day demand tools that can take the heat and deliver maximum performance.

Brokk builds its REMOTE-CONTROLLED DEMOLITION MACHINES with that in mind. Similar to how Norse legends say our namesake, the dwarf Brokk, forged Thor’s hammer to be mighty, we build our machines to pack a punch.

Here’s how:

ENGINEERED FROM THE TIP

We engineer our demolition machines starting at the tip of the breaker for maximum attachment compatibility and performance. This includes using small electrical fuses, eliminating back pressure and optimizing machine oil flow, oil pressure and down pressure to allow for more hydraulic power while using less energy.

THREE-PART ARM

A Brokk machine’s three-part arm allows operators to use that power with flexibility and precision. The arm holds the hammer against the work at any angle and provides significant downforce, even directly overhead, making it ideal for refractory removal in all directions. In addition, our largest model, the Brokk 800P , features a rotating boom and a heat-shielded process breaker, allowing for efficient maintenance and REFRACTORY REMOVAL from furnaces, hot ladles, converters and runners.

BUILT TOUGH

Our equipment withstands the toughest environments. Everything is heat and impact resistant, including the cylinder, cover and all components.

We also build our machines with an astounding power-to-weight ratio, especially compared to larger equipment. The 6-ton Brokk 500 easily handles a 1,600-pound breaker designed to fit on a 10- to 17-ton excavator, illustrating just how powerful Brokk machines are pound-for-pound.

Just because a machine is built as heavy and robust as possible doesn’t mean it’s the best tool for the job. Every inch of a Brokk machine is intentionally designed for maximum performance and flexibility, so you can finish work quickly, safely and efficiently.
