Wheel Overview:
The Nidec Shimpo RK-3E is built for potters who value power, control, and a classic wheel feel. Its ½ HP brushless DC motor delivers smooth, quiet performance with speeds ranging from 0–250 rpm, easily centering up to 45 kg of clay. The 14" cast aluminum wheel head with bat pins adds flexibility, while the two-piece splash pan makes cleanup simple. The wheel head also spins freely at zero rpm—perfect for banding or decorating. A responsive foot pedal offers precise speed control, and the reversible motor supports both left- and right-handed users. SHIMPO RK-3E pottery wheel uses an exceptional Direct Drive motor. The Direct Drive motor is a brushless, beltless motor that operates on a magnet system and is electronically controlled. As a result, the motor is EXTREMELY quiet! A solid steel frame and adjustable legs ensure comfort during long sessions. Shipping weight: 54 kg.
