what are electric breakers?
Electric hammers are used in construction and demolition to break hard surfaces such as concrete, stone or asphalt. Unlike a traditional hammer, which requires manual force to strike and break, an electric hammer uses electrical power to generate force and do the work.
An electric hammer is based on a percussion mechanism driven by an electric motor . The hammer has a piston that moves back and forth at high speed inside a cylinder, when striking it releases the stored energy and strikes the surface with the bit or chisel.
Within the category of electric hammers, there are different subcategories that adapt to different needs:
- Hammer drills: Hammer drills are versatile tools designed for drilling hard materials. They combine a rotary drilling function with the ability to apply a hammer impact, allowing them to drill efficiently even on very hard surfaces. These hammers usually have a rotating and hammering mode, which means that the bit rotates and at the same time performs a hammering motion back and forth to break up the material.
- Chipping hammers: Chipping hammers are designed specifically for demolition work. They are powerful tools that generate high impact energy concentrated in a chisel or pointer. Chipping hammers are ideal for breaking hard surfaces such as concrete, asphalt or stone, and thanks to their robust and powerful design they allow you to demolish solid structures efficiently.
- Demolition hammers: Demolition hammers are similar to picks in terms of their main function, which is demolition. However, demolition hammers are usually larger and more powerful, capable of generating greater impact energy. These tools are especially useful for large-scale demolition work, such as the demolition of walls, concrete floors or building structures.
Thanks to the variety of products we offer at Intermaquinas you can choose the one that best suits your needs. Whether it is a rotary hammer drill that combines rotary drilling and hammering, a rotary hammer, which are powerful tools for demolition, or a demolition hammer, which are larger and more powerful for large-scale demolition work.
