German METABO tools METABO models METABO prices

METABO tools powered by electric motors or electromagnets, driving the working head through a transmission mechanism, are referred to as power tools. They are hand-held operating tools that use low-power electric motors or electromagnets as power sources to drive the working head via a transmission mechanism. Power tools are divided into handheld and portable types; handheld power tools are more flexible, convenient, and widely used. Many varieties have become essential tools for production and daily life. There are numerous power tool brands. According to their functions and applications, they are mainly classified into metal cutting power tools, grinding power tools, assembly power tools, and railway power tools. Common power tools include electric drills, electric grinders, electric wrenches and electric screwdrivers, electric hammers and impact drills, concrete vibrators, and electric planers.

METABO tool classification

1) Electric planer: It is one of the main tools used in woodworking and decoration. It is mainly used for planing and smoothing flat surfaces of various woods. Products are available as short planers and rough planers. Rough planers are mainly used for planing and smoothing flat wood surfaces and can process relatively large board surfaces; short planers, in addition to board surface planing, can also be used with various guide fences for planing tongues and grooves, edges, and slotting. The main features of using a handheld electric planer are small size, light weight, portability, and ease of use. Compared with manual tools, it can significantly reduce labor intensity and improve processing efficiency and quality. When using a handheld electric planer, hold the handle at the rear of the planer body with your right hand and slightly raise the center of gravity of the rear part. After starting the power with your left hand, grip the guide handle at the front of the planer, keeping the front center of gravity lower. Follow the operation sequence where the front of the planer contacts the wood first. When the rear center of gravity gradually and steadily contacts the planing surface of the wood, push the planer body forward smoothly in the direction of planing with both hands. After the planer body completes the planing stroke, lift the front of the planer with your left hand, then pick it up with both hands and return to the starting point for the next pass. Repeat this process until all planing is completed. 2) Jigsaw: Also known as electric coping saws or electric fine saws. It is a multifunctional cutting tool that can cut materials from wooden boards, as well as perform straight or curved cuts on plastic and metal sheets. It is particularly suitable for cutting complex shapes and geometric figures with small radii of curvature. It is an indispensable multifunctional sawing tool for home renovation and various public interior decoration projects. It features light weight, small size, portability, simple operation, and wide application range. Its cutting principle involves a narrow saw blade with upward-facing teeth. During operation, the blade moves in a linear reciprocating motion up and down to perform cutting, completing various sawing tasks according to size requirements. If used with a guide fence, it can also perform angled bevel processing. When using an electric jigsaw, for smaller and thinner wooden boards, fix them to the workbench first and support the workpiece with your left hand. Then, hold the saw handle with your right hand and slowly push forward for sawing. Apply steady and uniform force during operation; do not apply excessive force to avoid injury or damage to the blade. For larger boards, ensure the board is securely fixed, then hold the saw handle with both hands and push forward for sawing. Follow the marked line during sawing and always keep the blade perpendicular to the board surface to prevent jamming or binding. 3) Circular saw: Also known as a small handheld circular saw. It is a new type of small handheld electric saw equipped with a spring-loaded automatic safety guard and an electronically controlled constant-speed motor. It features simple operation, flexible use, quick adjustment, and high safety and reliability. It is very suitable for home renovation tasks such as cutting various wooden boards and fiberboards. The thickness of wood or boards being cut should generally be 60mm or less. 4) Sanding tools: Also known as small handheld polishers. They are mainly used for sanding bare wood before painting various wood finishes, and can also be used for sanding putty coatings. However, sanding putty generates significant dust, which seriously pollutes the environment, so enhanced personal protective equipment is required during operation. Handheld polishers include belt sanders and orbital sanders. Belt sanders are mainly used for rapid sanding of wooden components and products, while orbital sanders are commonly used for sanding large areas such as wooden floors in home renovations. 5) Small engraving machine: Also known as a groove planner or trimmer. It can be used for slotting, tenoning, drilling, edging, milling, and trimming on various wooden products and components. It can also be used for simple edging, milling, grooving, and trimming on light metal materials such as aluminum alloys and plastic steel, such as aluminum alloy (or plastic steel) doors and windows, balcony frames, and furniture frames. Therefore, it is also one of the commonly used power tools in modern home renovation projects.

METABO tool structure and composition

The cross-sectional shape and distribution of the magnetic poles vary depending on the workpiece. Common structures of electromagnetic chucks include rectangular and circular types. Rectangular magnetic poles are arranged either longitudinally or transversely. Longitudinal arrangement of rectangular magnetic poles is suitable for clamping larger workpieces; transverse arrangement is suitable for clamping smaller workpieces. Circular chucks are suitable for clamping ring-shaped workpieces or workpieces with complex shapes. The main characteristics of standard electromagnetic chucks are: magnetic flux lines are evenly distributed on the chuck surface, magnetic attraction cannot be concentrated, and the magnetic force per unit area is relatively small; the direction of magnetic force is perpendicular to the chuck surface and difficult to change, producing only one type of magnetic force for workpieces with the same contact area; the point of action of the magnetic force is limited to the contact surface between the workpiece and the chuck and cannot be arbitrarily changed. Therefore, disadvantages during machining include low positioning accuracy, insufficient clamping force, narrow scope of application, and low production efficiency.

METABO tool features

The electro-controlled powerful chuck has extremely strong holding force, up to 16kg/cm², with uniform and adjustable magnetic distribution. It is suitable for various heavy-duty machining, rough machining, and finish machining operations. Standard powerful chucks have weaker and uneven holding force, unable to meet the requirements of heavy-duty machining. The holding force of the electro-controlled powerful chuck does not require continuous power supply to maintain, generating no heat during continuous operation, thus avoiding thermal deformation of the workpiece. Meanwhile, the strong and uniform surface suction ensures the highest machining precision even if the workpiece overhangs the table. In contrast, standard electromagnetic chucks require a continuous current supply, generating heat after a period of operation. This not only causes thermal deformation of the workpiece but also reduces the chuck's magnetic force, failing to guarantee machining precision. The electro-controlled powerful chuck can be used continuously; even if operated continuously for more than 20 hours per day, no faults will occur, and no maintenance is required. Standard permanent magnet chucks typically experience a decline in holding force after about half a year of use, while electromagnetic chucks can only operate for a few hours per day. Furthermore, such equipment is prone to failures, requiring frequent replacement and repair of internal components. Using standard powerful chucks requires significant workpiece adjustment time, accounting for 40%-50% of the entire machining process. Clamping and positioning are prone to obvious errors, resulting in high scrap rates and very low efficiency. The electro-controlled powerful chuck features an automatic auxiliary positioning function. Simply pressing a button completes workpiece clamping or release in 0.3 seconds, significantly improving production efficiency.
