Thermacut

Thermacut is a plasma torch designed for cutting metal. The torch is part of a plasma cutting system that uses gas and electricity to create a flame of 20000 degrees Celsius, cutting steel up to 40 millimetres thick. The ergonomic handle allows several holding positions. The torch can be held with a closed palm around the handle or with the thumb resting on the top of the handle. A safety trigger prevents unintended operation. The main case is made of plastic by injection moulding, and further parts are made of copper, brass, steel, ceramic and rubber.

Milwaukee Redstick

Milwaukee Redstick is a digital level for professional construction work. Milwaukee Redstick is one of the first mainstream box levels to use only digital feedback, without spirit vials. Measurements appear on a high-resolution circular display that can be read from the side and from the top, using numeric, color graphic and audio output. The stated accuracy reaches three one-hundredths of a degree. Angle, percent, inch per foot and millimeter per meter modes can be selected, and the sensitivity of each mode can be adjusted. Rechargeable batteries supply the power.

Evo G

Evo G is a modular cab designed for forklift trucks. The structure is made of polyurethane composite formed by reaction injection molding, a process that allows curved surfaces and a weight reduction of 15 to 20 percent compared with conventional steel cabins. The cab measures 1300 by 1060 by 1810 millimetres. Seat, control and safety modules are interchangeable through standardized mechanical interfaces, so the cab can be adapted, maintained and upgraded quickly. An inclined control console, an adjustable seat and reduced noise and vibration limit operator fatigue.
