New Fall 2024: now with an LCD display. The Badeco MX-4 Touch Evolution LCD is a dual-voltage bench micromotor system that powers up to four handpieces—automatically. Remove a handpiece from its holder and the control unit directs power to that tool. This basic kit includes the New Badeco 465 quick-change handpiece, one RS2000 micromotor, and a PC800 variable-speed foot control. Add additional handpieces and micromotors to build out your ideal four-station setup.

Precision Collet Note (465 HP)
The 465 collet is manufactured to tight tolerances for true 3/32" shanks. For best results, use precision burs from makers such as Busch, Brasseler/Germany (Fox, Panther, Komet) and Dentsply Maillefer.
