Key advantages and technologies

BLDC motor – brushless power and durability

The high-speed BLDC motor reaches 12,000 min⁻¹, providing fast, clean, and even planing. Brushless technology ensures lower wear, less heating, and a longer tool lifespan – ideal for professionals working intensively every day.

AWS Ready – clean work without cables

The DKP181RTJ model is fully AWS Ready, allowing for wireless connection with a compatible vacuum cleaner. Once paired, the vacuum starts automatically with the tool, reducing dust, noise, and mess at the worksite. This solution significantly enhances comfort and safety.

Precise depth adjustment

The adjustment knob allows setting the chip thickness in the range of 0–3 mm. A clear scale enables quick and accurate parameter matching to the type of material being processed, resulting in a perfect surface finish.

Chip ejection to the right or left side

The ability to choose the direction of chip ejection increases ergonomics and allows the tool to be adapted to the conditions on the construction site or in the workshop.
