Reduced Energy Costs

Cordless is proven to offer a 90+% reduction in operating costs versus pneumatic tooling. Energy consumption is reduced by eliminating the costs involved with air generation, oiling, and air leakage throughout a manufacturing facility. Additionally, cordless tooling greatly reduces product damage caused by air hoses and cords and eliminates the need for rework caused by air tools. Enjoy extreme energy savings by eliminating the high costs associated with air lines, air tool leakage, warranty rework from damage, and inefficiencies in the current air system.

More Freedom

Enjoy more flexibility and increased efficiency with cordless technology. Cordless tools allow users to gain greater access and maneuverability in confined workspaces and closed compartments. Easily reposition fastening systems with cordless tools when assembly lines need to be redesigned, expanded, or eliminated. Cordless technology enables a quick recovery from power interruptions.

Reduced Hazards

Reduce trip and fall hazards caused by air hoses laying across floors or hanging from the ceiling by using cordless tools. Makita’s cordless tools offer light weight and ergonomic designs for better operator control, lower vibration, and noise reduction for operator comfort. Makita’s state-of-the-art battery platforms offer an environmentally friendly solution.

Brushless Motors

Makita-built brushless motors were first introduced in commercial tooling designed specifically for aerospace and military use. Beginning in 2003, our brushless motors were instrumental in achieving UL approval for usage in a Hazardous (Class 1, Division2) environment. In addition to these highly specialized applications, brushless motors eliminate the need for carbon brushes, greatly reducing the maintenance needs of our assembly tools. Makita’s brushless motors run cooler and more efficiently, producing longer runtimes and life expectancies of our tools. The ability to electronically control brushless motors enables users to program speed and RPMs throughout the rundown, resulting in the delivery of precision torque to challenging fastenings throughout the demanding applications of all of today’s assembly processes.

Torque-Tracer

Makita’s Torque-Tracer tools are the ONLY cordless clutch tools that are capable of calculating torque during the fastening process. Built with Bluetooth technology, our wireless data communication tools add additional value by capturing key fastening characteristics during the rundown and communicating to PC and PLC based systems to ensure a higher level of quality that cannot be achieved from other cordless clutch tool platforms.

Low-Reaction Technology

Dramatically reduce repetitive motion stress when operating clutch-based tools with Makita’s low-reaction technology. Makita’s proprietary, patented technology significantly reduces the “kickback” experienced when final torque is applied, especially in high torque applications. This technology reduces cumulative wrist strain, operator fatigue, and instances of injury caused by repetitive fastening tasks.
