DR99 Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 I never seen this cordless Makita drill before
KnarlyCarl Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Wow.....With that size of battery it would be better to have it separate from the tool, and clip on your belt or similar manner with a short cord running to it, my arms feel tired just thinking about drilling overhead with that thing.

jeffmcmillan Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 That looks like one of their older models for factory use. They typically market things like lithium ion, brushless, and bluetooth to aerospace and similar contractors long before we see those developments.
ChrisK Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 I'm with Jeff on that one. They have an entire line like that still. Look a little different but the older lithium a looked really cool.
ChrisK Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 I think they came with brushless motors too. Something to do with exactly what Jeff is referring too.
JimboS1ice Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 That's pretty cool might have seen one similar to that before but not often.JimboSent from my iPad using Tapatalk
comp56 Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 I had a older Makita drill that looked very close to that but with a totally different battery, probably the same time frame.....
ChrisK Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 This is their assembly tool line....http://www.makitaassemblytools.com/why.htm
JerryNY Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Kinda surprising most of those tools are 12v or less. Then again in an assembly situation prob lots of fasteners into plastic that don't require lots of power etc.
kornomaniac Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Those assembly tools have Veeeeery precise Torque settings. Most Bolts/nuts/fasteners only need a few newtons really. These assembly tools can be controlled by a computer using bluetooth and will torque untill the setting is reached and then auto stop. A visual and audio signal will alert the user if the fastening has been done correctly. Very cool but expensive tools 2
Andrius Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 nice tools, seeing it for the first time

John Glassey Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Love seeing these cool and unique tools and the history behind them. The forum is like a show for tool history. You guys are the best. Much respect.
