【New Lock Function Added】Reaching the Pinnacle of Ball-Grip Electric Screwdrivers. The MAKERZ Flagship Model 'Digital Electric Driver SD-FA Series,' Favored by Many Users, Evolves Further

MAKERZ Corporation (Headquarters: Kita-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture; Representative: Yohei Hashimoto), part of the KEYENCE Group, has launched sales of its digital electric driver "SD-FA Series" with a newly added lock function that prevents accidental operation, now available on the company's online store and Amazon.

The SD-FA Series is MAKERZ's flagship electric driver, combining a compact ball-grip design with practical high-end features: 3-stage variable electric torque, manual retightening up to 12N·m, a digital display showing set torque and remaining battery level, a 6-light round LED that brightly illuminates the tip, and a high-capacity 2000mAh battery.

This product was designed for more than just fastening screws. It embodies MAKERZ's craftsmanship by integrating into a single tool broad practicality for tasks ranging from precision work to high-torque fastening, peace of mind through visible status indicators, refined operability down to the smallest detail, and ownership satisfaction that makes you want it within reach. This flagship model represents MAKERZ's commitment to excellence.

Since its launch, the SD-FA Series has been widely chosen by customers. With the addition of the new lock function, it now offers even greater peace of mind during transport and manual tightening operations.

Because it's a tool you use frequently, it should not only be easy to use but also satisfying to own. MAKERZ continues to pursue both functionality and aesthetic sensibility even in tools meant for daily use on the job site.

| Newly Added "Lock Function" Prevents Accidental Operation

The SD-FA Series features a push-button activation designed for smooth, responsive operation during work. However, this light touch sensitivity previously carried a risk of unintentional activation when carried in bags or tool pouches.

To address this, the new "lock function" has been added. It maintains the responsive button feel while preventing accidental startup during transport or manual tightening. The tool has evolved into a reliable companion that can be safely carried and confidently used only when needed.

・安心 during transport: Prevents accidental startup when stored in bags, tool belts, or pouches.

・Secure retightening: Eliminates the risk of unintentional electric activation during manual retightening, allowing full control over the final tightening process.

[Operation Method]

Press and hold the torque adjustment button for over 3 seconds to engage the lock; the LED light will blink twice to confirm. To unlock, press and hold the same button for over 3 seconds to return to operational mode.

Product Features

| Wide-Range 3-Stage Variable Electric Torque + Manual Retightening

Suitable for various applications: low torque (0.7N·m) for small, delicate screws such as terminal blocks; medium torque (2.0N·m) for general tasks like aluminum frame assembly; high torque (3.2N·m) for demanding jobs like drilling into sheet metal. Additionally, manual retightening of up to 12N·m is possible, enabling versatile use across a broad range of tasks with a single tool.

| Digital Display for Clear Torque and Battery Status

The digital display clearly shows the current torque setting and remaining battery level. This allows users to confirm correct torque settings before fastening, helping prevent screw damage from over-tightening. With a high-capacity 2000mAh battery enabling long usage times and clear battery level indication, users can easily identify when recharging is needed, eliminating the risk of sudden power loss on the job site.

| 6-Light Round LED Ensures Shadow-Free Illumination at the Tip

Conventional single-LED electric drivers often cast shadows on critical areas due to limited illumination coverage. The SD-FA Series features a 6-light round LED that provides omnidirectional lighting, eliminating shadows and significantly improving visibility of the fastening area and its surroundings, enabling confident operation even in dark environments.

| Thorough Pursuit of Convenience and Reliability On-Site

USB Type-C rapid charging support Strap hole for preventing drops during elevated work Includes six key bits, including a hex ball-point bit Storage case with stable hold and stain-resistant material (sold separately)
