Governed turbine drive eliminates white finger
Powered to 1.4HP by a new governed turbine drive, the new light E Series unit with a 2.5" extension from Air Turbine Tools enables users to work tight areas, finishing faster and cleaner.
Diamond end mills offer longer life in graphite
Diamond coated, high wear resistant micro grain carbide end mills have a 30 degree helix specifically designed for machining graphite with longer tool life than equivalent carbide tools.
Micro-grained ball nose cutter mills hard steels
Manufactured from ultra wear resistant micro grain carbide, a two flute ball nosed, straight shank cutter is designed to machine steels hardened to 65 Rockwell C.
The E series consists of four lightweight models, the 204XDME, 203XDME, 230XDME and 525XDME.
The E Extended Reach Series are powerful, light, low vibration units with rugged construction, operating under 67dBa.
Torque and speed stay high under load producing governed constant high speeds from 25,000 to 50,000 rev/min up to 80% of light Air Turbine Tools rated horsepower.
The result is faster finishing with less operator stress and RSI injury risk.
Better cutting action and longer tool life result from work with high speeds that do not drop under load.
No lubrication, oiling or maintenance is required with Air Turbine Tools.
Elimination of lubrication costs, part cleaning, corrosion and workplace air pollution from oil mist are other additional advantages.
No vanes or gears to vibrate or repair.
That means greater reliability and lower operating costs.
The motor governor is efficient using only the required power which reduces compressed air consumption up to 30% when compared to typical vane tools.
Special features of the E Series include: * Double front bearings provide added durability when applying lateral loads on the unit.
* 2.5in front extension.
* Double Turbine Power (patent pending).
From weld grinding in the ship building industry and auto parts fabrication, E Series tools like the 230XDME tool, are well suited for parts cleaning, polishing and grinding applications where a longer reach into cavities is necessary.
