Fein UK shares stories from some of its newest FEIN customers following demonstrations of its grinders and impact drivers. The team also discusses its next generation of cordless grinders, and a new epic end-user deal.<\/p>\n

FEIN, the power tool manufacturer, started innovating in the late 19th<\/sup> century combining the power of an electric motor with a manual drill to develop the world’s very first power tool. In the years since, Fein has developed and innovated a number of tools for end-users, becoming a specialist in metal power tools and applications.<\/p>\n

Last year, Rob Roan was one such end-user who helped celebrate Fein\u2019s 150 years of manufacturing by testing one of Fein\u2019s metal drills and an angle grinder to deliver some of his metal fabrication work for his business.\u00a0 \u201cWe were all very impressed with the feel of the unit. When you press the start you can tell this is a quality gearbox and motor in your hand. We have managed to burn out every blue professional drill I have ever bought but the FEIN survived us!\u201c<\/p>\n

JP Schoonbrood specifically took on a Fein die grinder following a bet from a work colleague that the orange machine would surpass any other die grinder he had, JP having struggled for some time to find a die grinder that could deliver 8-10 hours work a day. He regularly uses the machine for modifying car engines, in particular the cylinder heads: opening up, re-profiling and polishing the ports for better overall performance.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving not owned a die grinder that has lasted me more than a week before needing repair, I expected the grinder to join the tool grave yard under my workbench before the first week was out.\u00a0 However, I was shocked to find that the FEIN machine lasted me through both weeks without issue, and overall I was left very impressed by the tool.\u201c \u00a0JP still uses that same grinder over 4 months on.<\/p>\n

Looking to the future, Fein UK is proud to announce that its grinding technology is now about to take another leap forward, releasing a new cordless generation of grinders. These are all supported by the existing battery system and a new \u2018High Power\u2019 battery system. Both the cordless angle grinders and the cordless die grinders have a new, dust-resistant, and brushless FEIN PowerDrive motor with an innovative technology concept.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe grinders are intended for steel construction firms, who use them to cut steel girders, for fitters, mounting stairway and balcony railings, or for people working in industry, needing to grind welded seams flexibly and in tight spaces. At the same time, the cordless angle grinders are an important tool for firms specialising in interior work because they often need a cordless system to cut a wide range of materials during on-site assembly work\u201d says Christian Weber, Grinding Product Manager at FEIN.<\/p>\n

The FEIN cordless angle grinders are available from specialist retailers from April 2018 as a Select or Set variant with the 18\u00a0V HighPower lithium-ion battery, as are the new die grinders.
