Prosector is speed and economy

Construction of partitions made of gypsum board or other material for frame technology requires the use of metal profiles. But how to speed up the work process, while achieving the maximum quality and reliability of the connections. Moreover, the use of a screwdriver is not always convenient, not to mention the time spent on screwing each self-tapping screw.

Today, actively using buildings or finishing them, or even constructing structures inside of it, such a wonderful tool as a cutter is actively used. It is also called clamps for joining a profile or a staple profile. This tool has the following advantages over the traditional ways of joining structures from the metal profile:

• High speed. With just two clicks, which takes only a few seconds, you get a fastening of two parts of the structure.
• High reliability .The hole cutters have proven themselves well, because in a few seconds a strong connection of the structural elements is obtained, capable of withstanding heavy loads.
• Ease of use of the tool. The profile cutter does not require special skills for use, for its stable operation it takes only some effort at pressing.
• Cost-effective. Pliers for the profile do not require metal parts for fastening metal structures( screws, screws, bolts, etc.).
• High surface quality after using the tool. Due to the reliable and powerful design of the device, no folding and failure occurs at the connection point, which eliminates the possibility of distortion in the whole structure or the exposed sheets of drywall.

Device for gypsum plasterboard cutter

Miter cutters for the profile are a rather complex mechanical device consisting of a large number of components:

1. bracket with two legs, which has a stop with a recess;
2. is a movable handle that is mechanically connected to the lever and punch;
3. fixed handle, which is securely attached to the bracket.

There is also a hinge for easy storage of the tool in a reduced state, movable axles providing movement of the working elements and much more.

In high-quality tools for the manufacture of its design, chrome vanadium alloys are used, which ensure high strength and durability. Therefore, when choosing, it is worth paying attention to this.

This model is more convenient and allows you to fix the profile in the corner joints.

Principle of operation of the

device. Regardless of the design, any cutter for connecting profiles has the same operating principle:

When pressing the movable lever, the punch moves forward, which pushes against the profile, pushes it through and stops at the stop. Its design is made in such a way that the edges of the hole are bent, thus ensuring a reliable and durable connection.

The degree of pressure depends on the force transferred to the punch. Therefore, the design provides for long levers and handles or additional transmission mechanisms that provide the necessary force.

Selection of ticks for profile connection

How the cutter works to connect profiles, found out. Next, you need to consider the commercially available versions of this tool. After all, today there are a lot of companies that are engaged in the production of construction tools. At the same time, the quality of production will be different for everyone, because someone is guided by the quantity, thereby offering less reliable mechanisms, but cheaper ones. But when buying this kind of devices should not be saved, because the purchase of two cheap units will entail a large cost, plus, there is still added and constant anguish with it.

What kind of commercially available tongs are available?

Before you figure out which type of cutter is better for connecting profiles, you need to familiarize yourself with the available models of this tool.

Today there is a wide variety of cutters for the profile, each of which has its advantages and disadvantages. Let's take a look at some of the most common models of this extraordinary tool:

1. KNAUF ticks, which are shown below. They are one of the simplest models of this tool. What is said and its simple design. Structurally, they consist of only three parts:
   

   The Knauf

• protector is a bracket with a fixed handle;
• the mobile handle with the transfer mechanism;
• punch.

The simplicity of the design speaks for its reliability and practicality. Therefore, this model will be an excellent option for frequent use.

1. The cutter for the profile of plasterboard from the company KB Prok, photo of which is presented below. They also have a fairly simple design and a reliable mechanical connection, which allows you to work with it for a long time. The technical parameters of the unit are as follows:
   

   KP-prose prosector

• width of the cut profile from 28 to 100 mm;
• profile thickness is 0.55-0.7 mm.

The material of the device is structural steel.

This model is suitable only for direct connection of profiles and is used only for partitions

1. The next common type is the cutter for the profile for gypsum board from Knipex model kn-9042340.The photo of this tool is presented below. They also represent a fairly strong mechanism, as indicated by the thick-walled metal used in their manufacture. Perfectly suitable for short work with a wall profile.

1. The prosector for profile EDMULTRAPROFIL has a great interest among professionals. The French manufacturer guarantees high quality and practicality of the tool. It is realized in a set with replaceable punches for different thicknesses of metal. The photo of the unit is presented below. The device is equipped with a bracket adjustable in depth of the profile, due to two special screws. The quality of the material uses high-quality structural steel. Convenient universal model.
   

   The EDM ULTRA PROFIL

The cutter will also be a video about the cutter for connecting profiles. It describes how to properly use this unit, and which of the two same-type devices is more reliable and productive. Thanks to the cutter, the connection of the drywall profile occurs without the use of self-tapping screws and the work is faster and more economical. In more detail about the secrets of working with the profile.
