The BMP-700 is a new Brushless Polisher with a lot of new concepts and technologies and is replacing the Alpha® VDP-700, which has been the workhorse for many years. To reduce the fatigue of the polishing professional, we ergonomically re-designed this super lightweight rotary polisher so it is more comfortable to hold and easy to control during the entire operation. This is done using the built-in brushless motor along with one of two handle designs that come with the unit (C-Handle & Side Handle). As a result, the weight of the machine dropped to 4.4 lbs. / 2.0 kgs. that is substantially lighter than VDP-700.
