The Digi-Smart, featuring digital control touch pad, ergonomic design and a weight of just 3.8kg including battery, has been designed to minimise the occurrence of hand and arm-type injuries resulting from prolonged or repetitive use – and will also simplify the strapping process.

Maximum tension is 2000N.

Well-balanced and selfsupporting to allow comfortable single-handed operation, the Digi-Smart tool is suitable for use on all flat-pack type applications.
