FAB Series of DC Electric Screwdrivers

FAP Series DC Screwdriver FAB SERIES (TORQUE UP TO 16 in/lbs)

The FAB series electric screwdrivers are our best sellers for the electronic industry. Their advanced ergonomic design, ease of use, high accuracy and durability have made these drivers the standard by which all others are measured. They are lightweight, compact, powerful and come standard with ESD-safe housing certified to SP method 2472 (Ericsson approved).

The FAB screwdrivers are available in an inline body style with either a lever start or push to start or in a pistol grip with a trigger start (also available with the cord coming out from the top U option) and different speeds, for different assembly requirements.

The torque is set externally: an adjusting nut controls output torque by changing the clutch spring compression. A reference scale will indicate the torque setting. The low voltage 30 V DC rare earth motors combine high performances and long life. Replacing their carbon brushes once a year is all you need for maintenance. The motor works in combination with a control unit. The electronic control circuit cuts the power supply to the motor in response to the clutch action, as soon as the pre-set torque has been reached.

All FAB drivers come standard with an ESD-safe body, 8 ft connection cable and suspension bail. The new heavy duty cables and connectors, developed for robotic applications, are made of antistatic dissipative material for a safe use in ESD environment.
