How are power tools classified?

Electic Power tools mainly can be divided into hand-held power tools and bench-type tools. The following is mainly a classification of hand-held power tools.

Divided from the way of power supply

1. AC tools (corded)

AC tools still occupy the mainstream position in the field of power tools for sale because they can cope with the various needs of different working environments, but the disadvantage is that they need a power supply to achieve work. In some scenarios, the download may be restricted.

2. The convenience of lithium battery tools (cordless)

Cordless tools is unmatched by communication tools, and it is also the trend of future development.

Divided from the type of tool

1. Electric drill, impact drill

Electric drill is a drilling machine that uses electricity as power. It is a conventional product in power tool kits and the most in demand power tool product. It is suitable for drilling holes in wood, metal, brick, ceramic tiles and other materials, and can be used for wood bolts and screw fastening, which is an essential woodworking tool.

The impact electric drill adds an impact function to the electric drill. In addition to wood, metal and other materials, it can also be used for stone drilling.

2. Saws (electric circular saw, reciprocating saw, jig saw)

Electric circular saws are suitable for sawing wood, fiberboard, plastic and flexible cables and similar materials. The reciprocating saw is an electric tool for sawing with a reciprocating saw blade. It can be used to cut wood, hard metals, etc. Jig saw is a kind of electric saw that can cut according to the curve.

3. Wrench

An electric wrench is a wrench powered by a power source or battery. It is an ideal power tool for tightening high-strength bolts. It is also called a high-strength bolt gun.

4. Electric hammer

The electric hammer is an electric rotary hammer drill with a safety clutch attached with a pneumatic hammer mechanism. The electric hammer uses the principle of piston movement. Compressed gas impacts the electric rotary hammer drill bit. It does not require much effort from the hand to make holes in hard materials such as concrete, bricks, and stones.

5. Angle grinder, straight grinder

Miniature angle grinder is a portable carpentry power tools that uses glass fiber reinforced plastic for cutting and grinding. It is mainly used for cutting, grinding and brushing metals and stones. 

Hand held metal straight grinder is used in mining and metallurgy, building materials, chemical industry and metallurgy. The purpose is to process cavity molds and fixtures. The types are pneumatic straight grinder and pneumatic straight grinder.

6. Sanding machine

Hand sander is the mechanical equipment used to complete the sanding work. It processes some materials and objects that are uneven, uneven in thickness, and do not meet the process requirements to make them smoother.

7. Trimming machine, electric wood milling

Trimming machines are mostly used for wood chamfering, metal trimming, strip edging and other strong motor-type trimming equipment. Electric wood milling can be used for router milling, trimming, and slot milling of wood.

8. Electric grinder

The full name of the electric grinder is the reciprocating electric polishing grinder (also known as the file grinder), which is widely used in the finishing and surface polishing of the mold industry. It is a substitute for similar pneumatic products. According to the size, it can be divided into conventional type, small and micro.
