There are two types of engravers — rotary and percussion, but the latter are used exclusively for engraving and embossing, therefore they are less in demand in everyday life.

We have collected for youTOP 5 Rotary Engravers, any of which will become a reliable assistant in your favorite business. Lightweight and compact tools are equipped with the function of smooth speed adjustment, shaft locking, and differ in engine power and the number of attachments included. The presence of a flexible shaft makes it possible to work in conditions of limited space.

To expand the selection criteria, we added one battery model to the four network models, which has its own separate advantages.

A complete list of rotary engravers can be found in our catalog.

The east european manufacturer Intertool is gradually gaining a place under the sun of the Ukrainian market of industrial power tools, offering competitive products at a reasonable price. Buying an engraver of the STORM WT-0516 series will cost only $ 35, but it allows you to solve most problems of fine processing of materials.

The 170-watt motor develops a spindle rotation speed in the range of 8000 – 35,000 rpm. Smooth adjustment of the speed in this range makes it possible to process both soft wood and ceramic, granite surfaces. For hard-to-reach places, a flexible shaft is included.

The set of nozzles includes 40 units, including balls, drills, grindstones, cutting wheels, grinding and felt nozzles, neatly folded into the cells of a separate plastic case. All of them are designed for a collet diameter of 3.2 mm and are changed using a complete key.

The tool is not recommended for long-term operation. After 15 minutes of operation, the machine should be allowed to rest. For more confident performance of operations, the device is equipped with an additional removable handle and a three-position telescopic tripod with a hook for hanging. Given the rich equipment, the set comes in a convenient plastic case.

As a result, we note that externally Intertool STORM WT-0516 is actually a copy of a more famous engraver Dremel 4000-1/45 . At the same time, the east european tool is significantly cheaper.

The international trademark Bort manufactures its products in China, but according to the developments of German engineers. Having existed on the world market for more than 20 years, the company has sold over 35K of its power tools. The engraver BCT-170N has a democratic cost of $ 35, at the same time, it is not much inferior in functionality to the more famous brands of multitools.

It is noteworthy that the engraver is offered in two colour options: blue and green, which sometimes misleads the buyer who thinks that there are other differences between the machines, except for the colour, as is done, for example, at Bosch, which divides the professional and household series by colours. In the case of Bort, structurally we have the same model.

Despite the powerful 170-watt motor, the tool is very light and weighs only 0.65 kg. The shaft develops a speed from 8000 to 32000 rpm, and the value is set in increments of 1K using the "+" and "—" buttons. The current speed is displayed on the electronic display.

The tool kit includes 60 nozzles, a flexible shaft, a wrench, a replaceable set of brushes and a case. There is no tripod, but there is a ring on the handle for hanging, so there will be something to hang for, it remains only to decide where. A shaft lock button is provided for safe replacement of attachments.

Overall, the Bort BCT-170N leaves a pleasant impression, especially for its price. With infrequent work in the garage or home workshop, he will cope with a bang. And what else is needed?

The German manufacturer Einhell is not as popular as its more famous brothers Metabo or Bosch, but is preferred by many connoisseurs of good and, at the same time, inexpensive equipment. TH-MG 135 E is an example of a highly functional and thought—out engraver at an affordable price of $55.

The tool is very compact, ergonomic and, perhaps, the lightest of all engravers — 0.6 kg. The power does not shine, here it is only 135 watts, for that it has 189 nozzles in the kit, neatly laid out in a special compartment at the top of the drawer in which the tool is supplied. The nozzles, as they say, are laid out on the shelves, with German pedantry. In view of such abundance, the tool is equipped with collets of 4 different sizes. In addition to the standard 3.2 mm, there are also 0.5, 1.6 and 2.4 mm. The shaft speed from 10000 to 32000 rpm is regulated by a 6-position wheel.

The kit includes a flexible shaft and a tripod so that you can work in hard-to-reach places and not think where to identify the machine, so that the power cable does not interfere and does not bend.

Of course, there is not enough power in certain operations, you will have to interrupt the process and wait for the tool to cool down, but in general, the Einhell TH-MG 135 E is definitely very good for its price. It is pleasant and effective to work with it, and there are so many attachments that there is not the slightest need to think about buying additional equipment.

Do you want to buy a deliberately high-quality and reliable tool? Then you to Bosch. GRO 10.8 V-LI Professional is a powerful engraver, not burdened with attachment to an outlet, which will be the solution to many household problems, and will also help to unleash the creative potential of a young master.

The model, as you already understood, is rechargeable, at the same time, compact, but powerful, since it allows you to use not only a 10.8 V battery, but also a 12. The model specifically described is sold without a battery, charger and case, but the model Bosch GRO 10.8 V-LI Professional 06019C5001 it is already fully equipped with two batteries, which is very convenient and allows you to work without interrupting for recharging. The time when the power supply should be replaced will help determine the indication of the remaining charge.

The speed of rotation of the shaft is regulated using a 6-position wheel from 5000 to 35000 rpm and these parameters are enough for all possible operations that can be carried out by an engraver — cutting, grinding, milling, polishing and drilling, even in hard-to-reach places.

As for the nozzles, the manufacturer did not bother and included only a cutting circle in the kit, but put a case for accessories so that everyone could already fill it himself at his discretion.

Given the mobility of the device, there is no need for a tripod with a flexible shaft, for that there is a diode backlight, which certainly will not hurt.

For the minimum configuration, Bosch puts up a price tag of $ 120. Given the interchangeability of batteries, the ability to purchase only the tool itself will please many who already have the appropriate equipment from other battery equipment manufacturer. I am not happy with the price itself. Moreover, for less money you can take, for example, such a Dremel 8100-1/15 fully equipped, also with nozzles.

Every owner of an electric multitool knows that the best tools in this niche are made by the American company Dremel. The model of the engraver 4000-6/128 is a real proof of that. It's time to figure out what the secret of the manufacturer's success is.

The first impression when unpacking is made by an aluminium case. It is lightweight, but durable and quite elegant in appearance. Inside is the engraver himself, 6 consoles and as many as 128 attachments, some of which, most often used in work, can be folded into two small plastic cases for quick access.

But it is the consoles that deserve special attention, thanks to which the model received a loud addition to the name — Platinum Edition.

In addition to the removable handle that fits on the front of the case, a linear milling compass, an angle attachment for complex work, a cutting guide, a grinding platform and a flexible shaft are attached to the engraver.

Given such a rich equipment, the EZ-Twist quick-change attachment system used in the engraver looks like a very wise solution, allowing you to change the tooling without the help of a key.

The power of the device 175 watts is enough to perform any tasks that the engraver is able to cope with at all. The wheel on the body, located in convenient proximity to the handle, allows you to choose 7 speed modes — from 5000 to 35000 rpm.

The above advantages are undoubtedly enough to consider the Dremel 4000-6/128 really the best functional engraver available on the market today, but also the most expensive ($210). Although there is not so much for the Platinum Edition from a subsidiary of Bosch…
