  • Hand held battery powered drills - inconsistent equipment
  • High Speed steel (HSS) drill bits
  • High tool failure in up armor material
  • Operator fatigue due to dull drill bits
  • Low battery life

    System Solution:
  • Carbide drills designed for hard materials
  • Magnetic base drill - stability for carbide drills
  • Drill sharpener for on-site sharpening of drill bits
  • High voltage / high torque hand held drills
  • Consistency in equipment for all technicians

    Project Savings = >30% Reduction in Installation Time
