Brokk, a leading manufacturer of remote-controlled demolition machines, offers steel cutting tools for both small and midsized Brokk demolition machines. The MC200 Multi Cutter expands smaller Brokk models’ versatility for contractors while the MC300 Multi Cutter pairs with midsized machines. The attachment, manufactured by Brokk’s sister company, Darda, offers a high power-to-weight ratio and sleek, compact design, addressing the need for a lightweight, economical cutting tool in recycling, demolition, nuclear, process, food and construction.
The Multi Cutter attachments were highlighted at World of Concrete 2024 in Las Vegas.
The 10-by-13-inch (25-by-33 centimeter) MC200 Multi Cutter is 40 inches (102 centimeters) long and can be used on machines weighing 2,650 to 6,170 pounds (1.2 to 2.8 metric tons), including the Brokk 110, 120D and 170 models. It brings flexibility to the jobsite with its slim profile, making it easy to maneuver in tight spaces, such as building interiors where Brokk machines are useful because of their electric operation and compact size. The attachment also features a hydraulic 360-degree rotary drive for exact positioning and an 8-inch-wide (200 millimeter) jaw opening, able to handle a variety of metals. It weighs only 265 pounds (130 kilograms) yet uses a hydraulic booster to exert 50 tons of cutting force at 3,900 psi (270 bars) to cut through steel.
The MC300 can be used on Brokk 200 and 300 models. It is 50 inches (127 centimeters) long, 12 inches wide (30.5 centimeters) and 21 inches (53 centimeters) high. Weighing in at 639 pounds (290 kilograms), it still has a cutting force of 60 tons (590 kilonewtons). The MC300 also features a hydraulic 360-degree rotary drive for exact positioning and a 14-inch-wide (36 centimeter) jaw opening to handle a variety of metals. To reduce costs to the end user, Darda designed the Multi Cutter attachments so operators can sharpen the jaws rather than replace them.
“We developed the Multi Cutter in conjunction with Darda because there was no reasonably priced cutter or shear on the market for our machines,” said Lars Lindgren, Brokk Inc.’s president. “This tool opens the door to operators who need the compact size and light weight of our Brokk machines, but the force to cut through steel. Plus, the attachment expands the variety of services contractors can offer by increasing the number of attachments available for our smaller models.”
The Multi Cutters allow contractors to easily cut beams, cable, supply lines and steel pipes in hard-to-reach areas. This improves efficiency and minimizes labor costs. The attachment, paired with a Brokk machine, reduces the risk of injury to laborers by eliminating the need to climb scaffolds and ladders with handheld tools. The Multi Cutter also alleviates the risk of injury from open-flame torches, which are a common but dangerous method for cutting steel. This traditional approach can also create fire hazards and increase the risk of exposure to harmful emissions.
The Multi Cutter attachment is one of nearly 20 Brokk attachments that operators can quickly interchange for greater versatility on a jobsite. Brokk supplies a wide range of remote-controlled machinery and attachments around the world to maximize productivity, improve efficiency and promote safety.
