Separate bowl dimensions from the part envelope
The4M column lists1,360×1,610×2,450mm L×W×H including the control panel. The6M column lists1,680×2,010×2,620mm. Keep this axis order when comparing access and floor planning. Maintenance clearances, transport envelope and floor loading are not supplied by this table. The wet-bowl inner diameters are840mm and1080mm, with common440mm depth and approximately840mm top-of-bowl height. The240/430litre entries are volume, not batch throughput. Review the actual fixture motion, part spacing, immersion and protected features together.
Keep mixing, carousel and station drives separate
The mixing motor row gives1.35KW for each model; the carousel power row gives4KW for4M and7.5KW for6M; the workstation row gives3KW in each column. These rows do not establish a total connected load or measured consumption. Four and six independent stations describe the respective columns, but the brochure does not resolve a universal parts-per-station load. Both carousel and station ranges are5–80rpm for4M and5–55rpm for6M in this version. Do not infer suitable rpm, cycle time, productivity or energy cost from these equipment entries.
Review fixtures and paid options before the trial
Workpiece-specific fixtures are supplied by the customer or at extra price in both columns. Pitch points are350mm and670mm. The mono-spindle and triple-spindle options specify0–25degree inclination in5degree steps; the triple option also lists a1:1.7 transmission ratio. Both options and the dry bowl carry0, meaning additional price. This does not establish which option is installed. Review the complete clamping interface, clearance, spacing and protected features with the responsible supplier. The printed protective-cabin guideline and interlock markers are catalog descriptions, not an independently verified certificate or site acceptance.
Keep the official web table conflict visible
The current official English product page, captured2026-10-04, prints240litres in both volume columns and5–80rpm in both drive-range columns. Its overall dimension table identifies4M/6M, but several later subtables repeat4M/4M headers. The07/18 PDF distinctly identifies4M/6M and gives6M430litre and5–55rpm. Do not silently assign every second current-web column to6M or overwrite the versioned PDF. Confirm the actual quotation, drawing revision and installed configuration with the responsible supplier.

Questions about this pair
What is the wet bowl difference in version07/18?
The 4M column lists840mm inner diameter and240litre; the6M column lists1080mm and430litre. Both list440mm depth and approximately840mm top-of-bowl height. These are bowl dimensions and volume, not an approved part load.
Are the speed ranges current process recommendations?
No. The brochure lists5–80rpm for4M and5–55rpm for6M, in both carousel and station rows. These equipment ranges are not processing recipes. The current web table differs and has repeated model headers; confirm the offered specification separately.
Can the separate power rows be summed?
No total connected load is established here. The mixing motor is1.35KW in both columns, carousel drive4KW or7.5KW, and station power3KW in both. The row does not resolve how station power applies to installed drives, so no aggregate power, current, energy use or efficiency is derived.
Does the option marker0 mean unavailable?
No. The brochure legend defines0 as additional price, andx as standard. Both columns mark the mono spindle, triple spindle and dry bowl as0. Installed options, customer-specific fixtures and current prices require a quotation review.
Does the current official page agree with the brochure?
Not in all fields. The current English page displays240litres in both volume columns and5–80rpm in both speed columns, with repeated4M/4M subtable headers. The version07/18 PDF distinctly labels4M/6M and gives6M430litre and5–55rpm. Keep the records separate; no current offer is established.
