At CRS, we continue to invest in professional tools designed to meet real workshop demands. We introduce the new EPR 8196, a high-performance electric polisher developed to deliver constant power, maximum precision, and reliability even under intensive use conditions.
A versatile solution designed for bodyshop professionals, but also suitable for industrial applications in sectors such as marine or railway.
Designed for intensive and continuous work
The EPR 8196 has been developed with a heavy-duty industrial approach, designed to withstand long working hours without performance loss. Its robust construction and optimized design allow continuous operation with total confidence, ensuring stability and consistent results at every polishing stage.
Perfect balance between power and ergonomics
One of the key features of this polisher is its balance between performance and comfort. With a weight of just 1.98 kg, it ensures agile and precise handling, reducing operator fatigue even during prolonged work. The ergonomic design, together with rubberized front and rear areas, improves grip and provides full control during use.
Brushless motor: higher efficiency and longer lifespan
Equipped with a latest-generation brushless motor, the EPR 8196 delivers a nominal power of 1500W (up to 2250W), ensuring consistent and efficient performance. This type of motor provides key advantages:
-
Greater durability compared to conventional motors
-
Less maintenance
-
Better energy efficiency
-
Stable performance in demanding tasks
High torque for maximum correction capacity
Thanks to its output torque of 4.0–5.0 Nm, this polisher provides the power needed to work with pads up to 180 mm and bonnets up to 200 mm.
This results in greater correction capability, even on complex surfaces, while maintaining stability and control throughout the process.
Precise and adaptable speed control
The EPR 8196 features a 6-position variable speed control system, with a range from 700 to 3000 rpm. This allows adaptation to each polishing stage:
-
Cutting processes
-
Intermediate polishing
-
Final finishing
The progressive trigger further enhances precision, allowing real-time speed adjustment according to the job requirements.
Dual reduction system for greater efficiency
The inclusion of a dual reduction gear system increases transmitted torque and optimizes performance during continuous work.
This design reduces motor load and helps extend the equipment’s lifespan while maintaining smooth and efficient operation.
Safety and durability in every detail
The EPR 8196 incorporates solutions designed to enhance both safety and durability:
-
Soft start to prevent splatter and reduce internal wear
-
Metal air intake filter to protect components from dust and particles
-
Optimized spindle lock system for fast and safe backing plate changes
A new benchmark in professional polishing
With the new EPR 8196, CRS takes another step forward in its tool range, offering a polisher that combines power, precision, and durability for the most demanding environments.
A solution designed for professionals seeking consistent performance, full control, and flawless results in every job.
