What is a puncher for?
As already mentioned, the puncher, whose purpose is described below, can be used in several directions at once. First, it is much more effective than a drill, drills all kinds of holes in concrete, stone and other similar materials( where impact is necessary).This is provided by a special pneumomechanism, it works like a jackhammer. Because of its help, you can also groove the grooves in the soft plaster.
Secondly, if you use a special adapter( adapter), then this tool is used and as a drill. It is only important that the adapter has an SDS tail. It is he who makes it possible to connect the cams to the cartridges of the instrument. Thirdly, the puncher is also used as a screwdriver.
The device and principle of the perforator
The design of the puncher includes a reverse( it can be brush or electronic), friction clutch, speed regulator, electronic immobilizer, anti-vibration protection, service indicators, a simple and quick cartridge replacement system. Of course, depending on the manufacturer, the tools may differ in some details, but, in general, the mechanism of operation is the same.
The principle of the perforator is based on the shock mechanism - electromagnetic and pneumatic. The first works, thanks to two electromagnetic coils. They create a movement of the core in a reciprocating direction. And the core transmits these impacts to the end part of the drill. The second way - pneumatic - is provided by the movement of the piston in the cylinder in a reciprocating direction( this principle of the perforator has received the greatest distribution).
In addition to the perforator, a drill angle nozzle can be used for hard-to-reach areas, crowns, drills, a dust removal system, a chiselling attachment, and a drilling angle controller.
In the event that a jaw chuck is used, all types of attachments for it can be used. These are crowns and drills for a perforator for glass, wood, metal, concrete.
Types of perforators
As already mentioned, there are perforators with an electromagnetic and pneumatic operation mechanism. The latter are divided into three, two and one-mode ones. The first mode means only drilling. The second( considered the main one) is drilling and impact. Well, the third one is just a stroke( that is, just chiselling).
To avoid the question of what the punch-gun looks like, you can say that it looks like a pistol with a drill.
This tool is also divided by the type of drive. So, there are accumulator electric, network electric, gasoline, pneumatic punchers. The first are very convenient for facade works, as there is no need to look for a source of electricity. The latter are the most common and are suitable for many processes. Some are ideal for road works. Well, the fourth is often used in hazardous conditions( water flow, electric shock, the possibility of an explosion).
