#Makita multi tool saw series

Trades of all kinds utilize oscillating multi-tools for a range of applications. For users, AVT® means significantly less vibration with no compromise in power and performance. Makita also has an AVT® counterbalance system in select recipro saws. As vibration is eliminated, power is efficiently increased which allows more of the generated energy in the motor to be delivered to the tool bit. AVT® uses a mechanical damper, effectively a counterbalance weight inside the tool, that provides an equal and opposite force that puts a mass directly opposite the point where the striker bolt delivers the impact. The AVT® counterbalance design is based on seismic engineering, which developed this damping science to absorb shocks and protect buildings from earthquakes. Wherever the job takes you, Makita tools equipped with XPT™ are engineered for increased durability and longer tool life.Īnti-Vibration Technology (AVT®) is a counterbalance system inside the tool that significantly reduces vibration.

XPT™ is a series of integrated seals engineered to channel away dust and water for increased durability. When the job takes your Makita tool into harsh conditions, Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) provides added protection. When you slide a Makita 18V LXT® battery with the STAR symbol onto a Makita tool that has either the STAR symbol or a yellow terminal, you are benefitting from STAR Protection Computer Controls™. At that time the user can either restart the tool, change or charge the battery, and put the tool back to work. If STAR detects conditions that threaten to overload, overdischarge or overheat the tool or battery, the tool will automatically stop. STAR is communications technology that monitors conditions during use, allowing the tool and battery to exchange data to protect against overloading, overdischarging and overheating. Makita cordless tools are engineered for industrial applications, and for added protection during the most demanding jobs Makita created STAR Protection Computer Controls™. With high amp-hour batteries, efficient brushed and brushless motors, and 36V (18V X2) LXT® technology, Makita 18V LXT® tools not only meet corded demands, they can exceed the performance of corded, all while remaining in a single cordless platform powered by the industry's fastest-charging 18V lithium-ion batteries.

Makita’s leading technology gives tool users unmatched performance and breadth of line, with innovation in motor and battery technology that is obliterating industry standards – and leaving old thinking behind. Makita created the 18V Lithium-Ion cordless tool category in 2005, and today it is the world’s largest 18V cordless tool line-up. Tool users who unplug the cord with Makita 18V LXT® experience new levels of convenience, efficiency and productivity.
