A NEW ERA IN POLISHING

A world first in automotive detailing:
The PXCE 18-EC is a pioneering cordless polisher, as it's the first to offer rotation, eccentric free-running and forced rotation in a single machine. This provides maximum flexibility for a wide range of tasks, from sanding and paint correction to achieving a hologram-free finish. It is also possible to operate in rotary mode with pad sizes up to 75 mm.

The tool-free quick-change system allows you to easily switch between the three drive modes. With various stroke lengths and pad sizes ranging from 30 to 75 mm, the PXCE can be flexibly adapted to specific applications, from spot repairs to larger paint surfaces.

18 V Cordless Polisher PXCE 18-EC

Whether you need to address isolated paint defects, sanding marks or prepare larger surfaces: The PXCE 18-EC allows you to carry out various professional vehicle detailing steps with just one machine. Depending on the application, you can sand paint precisely, remove scratches and defects, and prepare surfaces for a hologram-free finish.

The PXCE's flexibility is particularly evident when dealing with changing requirements. With pad sizes ranging from 30 to 75 mm, you can work with precision on small areas and hard-to-reach spots, as well as process larger areas. This means that you can carry out spot repairs, correct individual paint defects and perform various polishing tasks on body panels, all with the same machine.

Rather than using multiple polishing machines for different steps, you can simply adapt the PXCE to the specific task and desired result.

The right setup for every application

From spot repairs to larger painted surfaces. Thanks to its various drive types, strokes and pad sizes, the PXCE 18-EC can be precisely tailored to each work step. This gives you the perfect tool for sanding, paint correction and finishing, all in one machine.

Targeted correction of scratches and paint defects

Depending on the nature of the damage, scratches, sanding marks and other paint defects require targeted treatment. Different pad sizes and stroke settings enable you to adapt the PXCE to specific surfaces and correction steps.

This enables you to work on individual defects as well as larger areas of the vehicle, before performing the remaining paint preparation steps with the same machine.

Precise Work for Spot Repairs and Sanding

When performing spot repairs in particular, it’s crucial to treat small areas precisely without unnecessarily affecting larger surfaces. With pad sizes of 30 mm and 50 mm, the PXCE is ideal for spot repairs and targeted sanding of small paint areas.

Thanks to its various stroke settings, the machine can be adapted to specific work steps, making it ideal for preparing and repairing localised paint defects.

Working on Larger Painted Surfaces

Not just small areas: The PXCE can also be used to work on larger surfaces with the 75-mm pad. Its ability to operate in a rotary motion is particularly practical.

This means that you can work on larger correction areas without having to switch to a different polisher. The PXCE therefore combines the precision of a compact polisher with greater flexibility for different surface sizes.

From the correction step to a hologram-free finish

After correction, achieving a uniform and clean surface finish is essential. With the PXCE, you can perform subsequent polishing steps to achieve a hologram-free finish, adjusting the setup according to the specific task.

Rather than having to switch between multiple machines during paint preparation, the PXCE will guide you seamlessly through the various work steps from sanding to the final finish.

Intuitive operation. Full control.

With the PXCE 18-EC's user-friendly touch panel, you can easily adjust the speed directly on the machine to suit the task at hand. The control panel also works with gloves on, which is convenient for professional use in vehicle detailing.

An integrated lock function prevents accidental inputs. This ensures that you are always in control of the machine, allowing you to focus on the paintwork.

Always keep an eye on the results!

The integrated, three-stage LED light on the PXCE 18-EC helps you to work on and inspect the paint surface. With colour temperatures ranging from 2,500 K to 6,500 K, you can adjust the lighting to suit your needs.

This enables you to monitor the treated area while you’re polishing, allowing you to assess your results more effectively.

Even more possibilities with the Flexible Shaft

Door handle recesses, radiator grilles, side mirrors, emblems, lettering and tight spaces inside the vehicle are often difficult to reach with a traditional polisher. However, with the Flexible Shaft, you can expand the range of applications for the PXCE 18-EC and precisely polish small, hard-to-reach painted surfaces in awkward places.

Thanks to its 140 cm length, the flexible shaft offers plenty of freedom of movement for detailed work all around the vehicle. The quick-change mechanism enables it to be used with the PXCE 18-EC, making the machine even more versatile for professional vehicle detailing.
