Electric Tool Changer: This is a notification regarding the discontinuation of the EQC75. Since its production began in 2017, there have been users in Japan who have adopted it, but with the launch of the new model "EQC20," we will cease production to integrate into the new model. We will continue to provide service parts and spare parts for existing tool changers, but we kindly ask you to consider the new model EQC20 for future adoption. - Product Name: Electric Tool Changer: EQC75 and dedicated accessories - Transition Period: As of the end of June, production will end with the remaining stock at the Italian factory. - Replacement Model: EQC20 (20kg payload electric tool changer) 1. By changing the motor structure, the size of the outer circumference has been compacted. 2. There are many adoption cases with collaborative robots, making it "collaborative-compatible." 3. We plan to expand the size options that users have requested. - Previously, there was only one model with a 20kg payload. - The new model will include the 20kg payload "EQC20," as well as two additional models: the 5kg payload "EQC05" and the 100kg payload "EQC100."
