RESQTEC EDD — battery-powered rescue tools (cutters, spreaders, rams)
The EDD (Electronic Direct Drive) line comprises rescue tools driven purely electrically — a compact, high-efficiency motor drives the working screw, eliminating hydraulics (no pump, oil, valves or seals). Available as G-series cutters, X-series spreaders, FX/G4WX combi tools and V-series rams. The same heads and performance as the 350 bar hydraulic versions, with full mobility on a Li-ion battery swapped in seconds.
