FLEX Announcement for SEMA - Can You Guess What it is?

[sydster]

How about Flex 25 because of its 25mm throw, depending or what throw it has or if it ever has one, we still dont know what it is.

If my guess is true that will be game changer to the body shop / detailing world as well. I can see it will compute against rotary applications. Again that is my perspective.

Whatever it is, I'm holding off buying a new buffer until I see what this is!

The PE14 is a super, state of the art rotary machine already, and you can use a 3 inch backing plate on it. Designing a dedicated 3 inch rotary is a bad decision and waste of R&D resources, IMHO.

A small, 3 inch, forced rotation DA makes more sense to me. And i would call it FLEX KTB-03 (Kill the Bigfoot 3-inch) or FLEX KTS-12 (Kill the Sasquatch 12 mm throw).

Just kidding

[brazuca]

Now, serious. I tried to recognize any pattern or meaning on the FLEX numbering, but found none, or few. They PE 14-1-180, PE 14-2-150 and PE 14-3-125 on their line already. All of them are rotary polishers. 180, 150 and 125 seems to be the backing plate size diameter in millimeters.

So, a 3 inch tool will be 76 mm.

Maybe PE means:

polisher -> Poliermaschine
electric -> elektrisch

hahahahhaha

So, my entries are:

FLEX PE 14-4-76 (76mm backing plate and 4th in line)

or, following the 3401 naming:

FLEX XC 3076 VRG

or

FLEX XC 76 Predator VRG

or

FLEX klasse 76

or

FLEX Fantastisch 76

or

FLEX PE 14-4-76 Wunder


Man, i'm inspired today.

Probably a 3" DA with a lighter weight body to compete with Rupes. They have everything else covered.
I say they will call it the "Flexlight"XXX####

I am guessing it will be a dual polisher like the cyclo but can be used with 5-6" pads, large throw (more then Big foot 15) and a powerful engine.

3401.V2 Going to be a Forced Rotational long throw DA
