Hilti Hilti has announced the launch of its next


generation electric demolition hammer – the TE 3000-AVR (03) – with an upgraded performance that puts it on-par with a 45kg pneumatic breaker. The new tool delivers 8.5tonnes/h concrete


demolition performance, thanks to its new brushless AC drive and optimised hammering mechanism. Not only can the TE 3000-AVR compete with the most powerful pneumatic jackhammers, but it does so with all the financial advantages of an electric tool. That means no fuel, no compressor and no frequent maintenance. Weighing 27kg, the TE 3000-AVR (03) boasts


improved Active Vibration Reduction (AVR) with a measurement of 6.9 m/s². New additions include a ‘power-on’ indicator as well as a third handle that makes it even easier to carry. The tool still features a detachable cord, allowing workers to quickly replace it if it gets damaged. The TE 3000-AVR (03) is suitable for


demolishing reinforced concrete slabs and foundations, breaking and cutting asphalt, so is ideal for road work and sewage maintenance. The tool can be used with the TE DRS-3000 dust removal system and a Hilti vac, meaning it can be used safely indoors.

Makita Makita’s XGT 80VMax disc cutter offers a powerful cordless solution that delivers


output equivalent to traditional two-stroke alternatives. The CE001G uses two XGT 40VMax batteries and delivers a maximum output of 3600W


and no-load speed of 5300rpm. In addition, the machine has a large wheel diameter of 355mm and offers a maximum cutting capacity of 127mm, so it is suitable for use on larger workpieces. Safety features include Active Feedback Sensing Technology that automatically shuts


down the power to protect the operator and the machine if the rotation speed suddenly slows down in the event of the blade jamming in the cut or if kickback occurs. Furthermore, an anti- restart function prevents accidental start-up and operators can also choose to connect a water supply to the machine to aid dust suppression. The new machine is available as a body only (CE001GZ), for contractors who have


already invested in the XGT battery platform, or as a complete option (CE001GT201) supplied with two 5Ah batteries and twin-port charger.

It features field-replaceable dies and is supplied with either a 41x41 or 21x41 shearing die, covering the most important two strut sizes.
