Jigsaws with pendulum strokes: Is every saw blade the same?
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
The layman may find the endless number of saw blades for jigsaws that meets the eye whilst walking around the hardware store astonishing – but on the other hand, craftsmen and passionate DIY enthusiasts rejoice at the enormous selection: There is the appropriate saw blade for nearly every work piece; therefore, choosing the correct saw blade is almost its own separate science. So no: Not all saw blades are the same – read what the principle distinguishing features are characterised as…
Pendulum action jigsaws – everything about the new PJSS models from Trotec!
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
Trotec’s new PJSS pendulum action jigsaws are real all-rounders compared to other saws. They really set themselves apart when it comes to cutting contours and curves, for example. However, these jigsaws can be used quickly and reliably for simple cut-outs too. Things to be especially aware of during operation, when maintenance is required – these and many more questions will be answered in our three-part jigsaw series.
“Where is the damp coming from?” – heating and ventilating correctly
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
Heating and ventilating incorrectly impairs the indoor climate and leads to heating bills mounting up. And that is by no means everything: When air and surface moisture is too high and room temperatures are too low, the risk of mould formation increases. Therefore, tips for correctly heating and ventilating your home have been compiled in the last part of our series – including our recommendations for professional comfort dehumidifiers in the TTK series from Trotec.
“Where does moisture come from?” – determining air temperature and air humidity
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
How does moisture actually emerge in the components of a house – and in doing so pave the way for mould infestations? The so-called ‘dew point’ provides an answer to this question. This is the temperature at which the air releases its contained water as condensate. Therefore, the precise measurement of air temperature and humidity as well as the exact determination of the dew point temperature are at the heart of building diagnostics – as well as for the accompanying measuring devices: the professional thermohygrometers from Trotec.
“Where does moisture come from?” – material moisture and surface temperature are what determine it
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
There are no outbreaks of mould without moisture. However, whoever wants to track it down like a professional renovator requires such a professional measuring device – something that can determine the material and surface moisture. Or can make notorious thermal bridges identifiable through the measurement of the surface temperature. In the second part of our series “Where does moisture come from?”, we introduce the professional measuring device that precisely determines moisture as well as its causes…
“Where is the damp coming from?” is the start of our four-part advisory series.

It’s a hard nut to crack – sometimes even for recognised experts and restoration companies – when it comes to investigating the source of mould. Although it is a basic requirement that there has to be a proportional level of damp for every mould outbreak, it is nevertheless anything but a simple task to localise the sources of spreading damp. Learn what you need to be aware of in our four-part advisory series…
Thermal bridge analysis using Trotec thermal cameras
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
With energy-related renovation, thermal bridge analyses identifies large weak points in thermal insulation. Best example: Almost all thermographic pictures taken of an existing building with roller shutters make it clear that there are thermal weak spots. Evidently, these casings were not, or barely, insulated at all up until the 1970s – and since then have been tearing big holes in the energy efficiency rating of every house. Renovation companies should be able to prove whether action needs to be taken here…
Additional battery Flexpower 20V 1.500 mAh – back in stock
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
Flexpower – the innovative multi-battery system from Trotec – impressed tradesmen and DIY enthusiasts so much that the additional battery sold out very quickly. This is because with Flexpower you are always equipped for a flexible and long-term use and save superfluous batteries and charging devices. Even searching for the right battery is coming to an end – in future you will simply change the device and not the battery. All the better that the additional battery Flexpower 20V 1.500 mAh is now back in stock!
