Battery integration makes automatic cable tying tool portable

The Autotool CPK hybrid is a fully automatic and process-reliable cable tying system. “Hybrid” because the tool can be used cordless with an 18V Metabo CAS rechargeable battery or electrically via a mains power pack.

“We have introduced the battery option in response to customer needs for a portable automatic cable tying tool, for example on large installations and for greater flexibility in industrial production”, says Jan Göllner, Category Manager EMEA Tool Systems & Identification at HellermannTyton. "As the successor to the Autotool 2000 CPK, the new CPK hybrid is more flexible to use thanks to battery operation and even ties 20 percent faster," adds Jan Göllner.

“We are thrilled to welcome the HellermannTyton Autotool CPK Hybrid to the growing ecosystem of industrial tools in the CAS battery alliance”, comments Metabo CEO Henning Jansen. “HellermannTyton’s move to make its cable tie application tool portable is great news for electrical installers across all industries. The high performance 18V Li HD batteries provide flexibility, reliability and 100 percent compatibility with the Metabo professional product range plus specialised tools from brands such as Scangrip, Steinel and now HellermannTyton.”
