KIWI400 light and hybrid

The machine the platform started in.

All machines shown are concepts for OEMs.

DesignPrototype on video

The KIWI400 is our own single-disc floor machine, designed around the Kiwi Battery Pack. The light version carries a sanding head. The hybrid version carries a planetary head and our hybrid module, so it can also run on mains power. Two working prototypes, still with an earlier motor and pack, are on video.

  • Weight where it works. The pack sits around the motor, so its weight becomes pressure on the tool.
  • Battery or socket. The hybrid can also run on mains power.
  • One system. Pack, controller and machine on one CAN bus.

Sanding and grinding

Weight is the tool

A sander or grinder works through its own weight. On these machines the battery is part of that weight, centred above the tool, instead of a box carried on the frame.
