Understanding how air tools work
GRS Air Systems are an essential part of daily work for many engravers, stone setters, and other artisans all over the world. Oil-free compressed air travels through the Air System, where it is harnessed and regulated to create the finest control. By setting the speed on the unit, the user is able to work at a consistent speed while applying the power they require via the foot control or hand control. Air pulses then travel into the handpiece where a spring, piston, and anvil deliver smooth strikes, transferring impact to the graver.
