(SUHNER: Rome, GA) -- With a redesigned pneumatic drive, the LRC 20 from SUHNER now offers a set of hand tools that can grind, mill, and polish places that previously could be accessed only with great difficulty (e.g., leading edges and corners of impellers, insides of narrow pipes). This new drive unit offers users a variety of benefits in production, maintenance, and general shop operations.

Pneumatic drive for the highest demands

The LRC 20 provides 20,000 rpm for user handwork. At the same time, it’s extremely slender and maneuverable and fulfils all safety, ergonomic, and energy efficiency requirements in industry. It’s also very quiet; even under full load, the sound pressure level is only 69.5 dB.

A centrifugal governor regulates the speed to such precision that it saves an average of 20 percent of the compressed air needed for conventional air tool technologies. The exhaust air is directed backward, protecting the work surface from lubricating oil, and reducing noise levels even further.
