A Revolutionary Gearbox Design for Cordless Power Tools
DeWALT recently unveiled their new Dynaglide transmission system for cordless power tools. This innovative gearbox design aims to provide enhanced runtime, power and performance compared to traditional gearboxes.
How Does the Dynaglide Transmission Work?
The Dynaglide uses a unique dual-ring gear design. There are two independent rings that can engage with the pinion gear sequentially. This allows the motor to operate more efficiently across the full range of speeds.
Some key benefits of this transmission system:
- Smoother power delivery under load
- Increased torque
- Longer runtime between charges
- Enhanced overload protection
Dynaglide in Action
DeWALT is initially launching two new 20V MAX* brushless tools featuring the Dynaglide transmission:
Tool | Key Features |
---|---|
DCS570B FLEXVOLT Advantage Circular Saw | Rafter hook, high-performance bevel capacity (57°), 7-1/4″ blade |
DCS573B FLEXVOLT Advantage Reciprocating Saw | 1-1/8″ stroke length, variable speed trigger, keyless lever-action 4-position blade clamp |
The Dynaglide transmission allows these tools to have best-in-class cutting depths and faster cutting speeds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How is the Dynaglide different from a traditional gearbox?
A: It uses a dual-ring gear instead of a single gear, enabling smoother torque delivery and longer runtime.
Q: Will the Dynaglide be available on other DeWALT tools?
A: DeWALT plans to expand the Dynaglide technology across other tools over time. It’s seen as a big leap forward for cordless power tool performance.
Q: Does the Dynaglide have more parts that could wear out?
A: No, it’s designed to be durable and reliable. The dual-ring gear minimizes wear compared to a single-gear design.
Q: Will DeWALT update existing tools with this new transmission?
A: There are no plans to update previous tools. It will be offered on newly designed models optimized for the Dynaglide.
Q: When will the Dynaglide tools be available?
A: The FLEXVOLT Advantage circular saw and reciprocating saw are expected to launch in 2023. Additional tools will follow later.
The Dynaglide transmission represents an exciting innovation by DeWALT to enhance the power and run time of cordless power tools. This new gearbox design delivers smoother torque, longer runtime and increased performance for top-of-the-line tools. As the system expands, users can expect a new level of capability from DeWALT’s 20V MAX* platform.
