HIOS electric screw drivers

[PureLeaf]

Searched the forums and shockingly found nothing on these.

Has anyone ever heard of HIOS screwdrivers? They appear to be japanese, corded screw drivers.

I was browsing some Proxxon and heard these mentioned, started looking into them.

Why would someone want a corded hex bit driver that uses not just a cord but also requires a power supply instead of just a cordless bit driver? Just trying to understand the pros and cons of this type of system compared with cordless.


Thanks

I'd assume for factory assembly work.

There for manufacturing. Likely made to be used 24 hours a day for a very long time. Usually have pretty precise torque control. I use IR and atlas copco

Not something I would find much use for at home though
