Cordless Pistol Screwdriver – BFT – Makita
USER-FRIENDLY ELECTRONIC CONTROLS
• Soft start to suppress reaction and allow for smooth fastening
• One-second restart delay minimizes the potential for operator double-hits
• Delayed restarter controls the motor so that it doesn’t start until one second passes after a screw has been driven; the motor does not start even if switch trigger is pulled
• Reduces deviation from pre-set fastening torque caused by
unintentional over-tightening environment
“Quick-Change” 1/4″ Hex Chuck
Built-in L.E.D. Lamps
Utilizing ISO5393 Standards
All BFT Series models provide Cm
ratings > 1.67
Torque Accuracy
+/- 10% with Cm ≥ 1.67
WHY MAKITA® CORDLESS?
INNOVATIVE CORDLESS TECHNOLOGY
Makita designs and manufactures innovative cordless tools utilizing the latest advanced
technology that allows professionals the ability to use cordless tools on tasks previously
thought to be impossible. Our goal in designing manufacturing & assembly cordless tools
is to break away from the historical method of costly air hose operation and allow the
operator freedom with a powerful, accurate and ergonomic solution.
Makita’s launch of the Torque-Tracer wireless data communication tools add additional
value within the manufacturing environment by providing features with improved Quality
Assurance methods. Torque-Tracer’s ability to capture fastening characteristics adds a
traceability and communication component to quality management with subsequent gains
in productivity.
REDUCED ENERGY COSTS
Less Energy Consumption needed to power cordless tools than to power pneumatic tooling.
Extreme Energy Savings by eliminating air line and air tool leakage.
Higher Quality Control by reducing damage to manufactured products often caused by hoses and cords.
Reduced Operating Costs and down time by eliminating oilers and oil maintenance.
Reduced Maintenance Costs by minimizing down time to repair damaged products.
MORE FREEDOM
More Flexibility to roam from one workspace to the next
Greater Access and Maneuverability in confined workspaces and inside closed compartments
Increased Efficiency with the ability to interchange tools from one application to the next
Easier to Reposition Fastening System when assembly lines need to be rerouted, expanded or eliminated
Quicker Recoveries from power interruptions
SAFER WORKPLACE
Reduced Hazards caused by air hoses laying across floors or hanging from ceiling
Lighter Weight with Ergonomic Design for operator control
Lower Vibration and Noise for operator comfort
Environmentally Friendly low toxicity battery platforms
BRUSHLESS MOTOR
UP TO 50% LONGER MOTOR LIFE
The Makita-built brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life.
The electronically-controlled brushless motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application.
LOW-REACTION TECHNOLOGY
BENEFITS
Dramatically reduces repetitive motion stress experience when operating clutch-based tools within assembly facilities.
Reduces cumulative wrist strain, operator fatigue, lowers the instance of injury caused by repetitive fastening tasks, and can reduce company healthcare costs related to repetitive motion stress.
TECHNOLOGY
Clutch components utilizing proprietary, patented technology significantly reduces the “kickback” experienced once final torque is applied by clutch tooling
Available as a retrofit to existing BFT, BFL, and DFT* Series Makita clutch tools, or included as OEM component on new tools.
