NEW SHAPE:
Standardization of knee and foot design across AR30, AR40 and AR60 variants

Improved component quality through a revised design and reduced part variation by standardizing the knee and foot assemblies across the AR product range.

Two industrial stand mixers shown side by side, left labeled 'Old' and right labeled 'New' to compare designs.

Affected parts:

Knees, feet and spacer blocks used on AR30, AR40 and AR60 stands. The design is standardized across all stand variants. Related spare part kits and service kits have been established with new item numbers to support both legacy and new designs

Affected sales products:

The previous products AR31-213ZB and AR61-213ZB are replaced by AR31-212.1ZB as part of the standardization of the knee and and foot design, but all three numbers can be bought as spare parts.
