Six or eight rollers, and the H axis
All of them roll at 20 to 80 rpm on 280 mm rollers. The RM-6 is the entry: brush motor, knob and no timer. The Pro and H units step up to a brushless motor, an LCD and a 23 h 59 min timer; the H versions mount the horizontal axis.
The 4Max is for bottles
It spreads its four rollers 68 mm apart to take vessels of Ø45 to 100 mm —two 1 L bottles or 2 kg—, where the rest of the family rolls tubes of Ø6 to 36 mm.
