• 134.744-465 With New Carbon Quick Change 465 HP: The ultimate quick change handpiece with 3/32″ collet.* The New Badeco 465 is lightweight yet solid, fitting perfectly in the hand allowing for continuous stress free work. To open the quick change collet all that is required is a simple 1/4 turn of the handpiece making for rapid tool change without the need of a lever or a wrench. This new version allows for tool changing without having to stop the motor. The 1/4 turn to close the collet produces a very secure grip that firmly closes on the bur or drill being used.  As sold with all Badeco Quick Change kits as of January 2023.

The Badeco MX-4 Evolution brings all the power tools a jeweler needs at hand. Power up to 4 handpieces from one control box. Simply turn the selector switch on the control box to the handpiece you need. Do away with multiple flex shafts and foot controls.
The Badeco MX-4 Evolution Dual Voltage 115/230V micromotor has been designed for use in the jewelry and watchmaking industries of Switzerland, the number one producer of super-premium jewelry and watches for the world. What separates this micromotor apart from all others is the quality, precision and reliability of the power box, motor and of course, the handpiece, and the single most important part of a micromotor. The Badeco Carbon Series Micromotor is a remarkable piece of Swiss engineering, giving you unstoppable torque at the lowest speed, the kind of low end power that jewelers need for drilling and stone setting.
The Badeco MX-4 Evolution 1 handpiece kit includes:

• Badeco 465 Carbon handpiece
• Badeco RS2000 Micromotor – The Badeco features a hi-torque carbon fiber micromotor handpiece motor, the RS2000, which attaches to the control box. Designed for reliability and efficiency, this powerful motor produces speeds from 2,000 rpm to 20,000 rpm, with 50% more torque than other types of micromotors. The hi-torque comes through at all speeds.
• Badeco Foot Control PC800 – The Badeco PC800 foot control  
• Mounting Hardware – Use this hardware to mount the control box on your workbench.

The control box allows for a variety of operating modes:

• Use the selector dial to choose which handpiece to power
• You can set the speed manually using the speed control dial.
• The far left toggle switch allows you to run manually by hand (handpiece speed controlled only by the center speed dial) or by foot control (handpiece speed controlled by foot control).
• The center toggle switch allows you to operate in forward (right rotation) or reverse (left rotation).
• The far right toggle switch controls how the foot pedal is operated. When the far left toggle switch is positioned down for foot control and the center speed control is in any position but off, the far right toggle switch allows for either set speed control or variable speed control (Variable speed foot control PC800 is sold separately).

**The collet on the Badeco 465 is extremely precise and is made to use with equally precise shank size burs from Busch, Brasseler (branded as Fox Germany, Panther or Komet) and Dentsply Maillefer (Otto Frei Swiss brand). American made HSS burs will not give good results in the Badeco 465 handpiece as their shanks are not as uniformly precise in size.
