The freedom of cordless: the Festool 18V Bluetooth cordless system

▲The 'ETSC 125 Cordless Random Orbital Sander' unveiled by Festool, along with the 'DTSC 400 Cordless Delta Sander' and the 'RTSC 400 Cordless Orbital Sander', are cordless sanding products that add Bluetooth functionality to further enhance operator convenience. The cordless sanding system, which combines an 18V Ergo battery with a brushless ET-TEC motor, boasts performance capable of delivering the same output as corded models, and its ergonomic design offers a lowered grip height and a lightweight 1.4 kg body for outstanding mobility. In addition, connecting a Festool plug-it cable allows it to be used as a corded sander as well. By supplying continuous power during ongoing work, it maximizes efficiency so operators can work easily anytime, anywhere.

▲The 'TSC 55 Cordless Plunge-Cut Saw', regarded as one of Festool's steady-selling products, also boasts the same power as corded models and is expected to be a product that can capture a leading position in the interior market. The TSC 55 Cordless Plunge-Cut Saw uses a dual-battery configuration, guaranteeing a maximum output of 36V when two 18V batteries are installed. ▲The 'HKC 55 Cordless Cross-Cut Saw', by applying a high-output 18V lithium-ion battery, maximizes the cutting power of the brushless EC-TEC motor, and with its guide rail it enables independent work regardless of location. ▲The 'BHC 18 Cordless Hammer Drill' is equipped with a brushless EC-TEC motor for long service life and high output, and its C-shaped structural design delivers powerful performance relative to its weight. Moreover, its low vibration reduces work fatigue, providing an optimal working environment.

▲The 'TID 18 Cordless Impact Driver' features a next-generation brushless motor for outstanding durability and a powerful 180 Nm output, delivering smart power, while its T-mode function provides excellent, material-optimized work. With a light weight of 960 g and a compact design (excluding battery), it produces no back torque, making it excellent for comfortable work that puts no strain on the wrist. In addition, the Li-HighPower 4.0 compact battery lets you experience the same performance at 20% lighter weight (compared to our 5.2 Ah battery), making it a favorite among interior professionals. ▲The batteries of the Festool 18V Bluetooth cordless system tools communicate via Bluetooth with the Bluetooth module of the dust extractor; when the switch on the cordless sander is turned on, the dust extractor is activated automatically. The Bluetooth module can be fitted as an accessory to existing dust extractors, allowing for efficient use.

The seven 18V cordless tool systems presented by Festool Korea form a mutually compatible system centered on a mobile dust extractor, and by concentrating the advanced technology of German engineering, they efficiently guarantee operators the best performance and results. Festool Korea stated, "As the COVID era has continued, many people have begun to focus on their homes, and the interior industry is developing considerably; because it is the process of repairing one's own precious home, when interior professionals work precisely and cleanly, the client's trust and work satisfaction rise," adding, "Since Festool's pride lies in its precise, high-quality power tools and its perfect dust extraction system, we plan to use these points as marketing angles and begin aggressive marketing to lead the interior market, and together with Festool's cordless tool lineup we plan to carry out a variety of events and promotions."
