How about Vickers electric angle grinder brand introduction

Wax is an international power tool brand founded by Baoshi Machinery Co., Ltd., which was originally mainly engaged in the export trade of power tools, and later became the first OEM supplier of American Black & Decker in China. In 2004, Baoshide launched its own brand WORXX, and the DIY series was the first to be launched in overseas markets.

Wicks currently has a certain reputation in China, and its products were originally only put on overseas markets, and returned to China in 2007. Vickers' initial positioning takes the high-end route, which is mainly reflected in the product design, and the product design of Vickers is mainly entrusted to the design center in Italy, which is more high-end than many domestic brands.

Vickers' products are mainly divided into three categories, namely WORX DIY series, WORX Professional series and garden tool series. The DIY power tool series is specially launched for home improvement enthusiasts, and the design is more compact; The Professional series of power tools is aimed at users in the professional field. The DIY series angle grinder model starts with WX, and the body is orange and black; The professional series models start with WU and WE, and the fuselage is black and yellow-green, and the professional series has more products and higher technical content.

Both DIY series and professional series have cordless angle grinders and corded angle grinders, among which the WX801 of the DIY series is more prominent among many angle grinder products. The main shaft of the brushless motor is directly connected with the bearing of the grinding wheel disc, and the transmission system is omitted in the middle, and the power is directly output to the grinding wheel disc, which greatly reduces power consumption and noise, and eliminates the maintenance of grease. Usually this kind of direct drive motor is more used in electric hammers, electric drills and other tools, and it is the first case in angle grinders, so this angle grinder is very similar in appearance to electric drills.

In addition to the DIY series of WX801 and 802, other angle grinders have added NASA aviation heat dissipation technology, and the air duct with a fixed air guide structure is designed inside, which dissipates heat faster and has a better effect.

First of all, the transmission system adopts a labyrinth design, secondly, the tail vent adds a detachable dust-proof filter, and finally most models use a tail switch, which is closed to block dust from entering the machine.

As for the safety protection performance, like most brands, only the high-priced WU808 electronic safety clutch and restart protection in the professional series are not equipped with the relevant equipment. The price of Wicks' angle grinder is generally not high, the average price of wired angle grinder is more than 200 yuan, and the rechargeable angle grinder DIY series is more affordable, the professional charging angle grinder WU808 bare machine only costs more than 700 yuan, and then with the battery nearly 1,000 yuan, the product quality and technology are not lost to the big brands, and the cost performance is very high.
