5. Burg-Wächter launches fingerprint padlock


4. Makita’s new screwdriver Makita UK has introduced the DFR551 18V LXT Brushless Auto Feed Screwdriver to its LXT platform. Powered by Makita’s 18V LXT battery platform, the DFR551 delivers on both output and ease of use.


The DFR551 is ideal for repetitive fixing tasks and rapid screw driving tasks. Trigger activated for easy use and complete control, it offers a no load speed of up to 6,000rpm and the screw feeding mechanism has been designed to reduce screw fall and ensure durability. With no power lead restricting movement, operators have maximum flexibility to use the DFR551 anywhere on site. It also features Makita’s brushless motor which means that, as there are no brushes in the motor causing friction, no energy is lost through heat production.
