The best electric cookers in 2018

For cutting ceramic tiles during the finishing works, there are special tools - mechanical or electric tile cutters. With the help of such tools they also cut glass and porcelain, they make holes of different shapes in the materials. The characteristics of the equipment in use determine its functionality. Before a conventional grinder and mechanical counterparts, a highly specialized power tool has several advantages. Products with electric motors are divided into manual and stationary models. The second type is more popular, but the best manual devices are also represented in the 2018 ranking.

Recommendations for choosing a hob saw

Top electric tile cutters manual type, considered in the rating, due to their small mass and portability are suitable not only for work in everyday life, but also for professional use. With their help, you can cut tiles of the most different lengths.But it should be borne in mind that with a significant amount of work, the operator has faster signs of fatigue compared with work on stationary equipment. Also, the use of manual models requires good practical skills to achieve high-quality results.

Stationary equipment is necessary in the implementation of professional activities. For infrequent home use, this is an expensive option.

In general, when choosing a electric saw, the following technical parameters should be considered:

• electrical power;
• the size of the desktop (for stationary models), which determines the maximum length of the cut (the largest size of the tile being cut);
• ergonomics;
• availability of dust suppression system;
• maximum depth of cut.

The more powerful the equipment being operated, the less likely it is to overload. For home use, models up to 1 kW with a disc of 80-150 mm in diameter are enough, which allow cutting tiles up to 4 cm thick. Professionals will need reliable, durable machines that have good functionality.

Dust suppression - this is a very important event.Air saturation with particles of the material being sawn requires the additional use of glasses and respirators, and working conditions deteriorate. Electric water tile cutters not only reduce the amount of dust, but also improve the quality of the result by cooling the tile.

Good ergonomics The selected tile cutter reduces fatigue. This has a positive effect on performance.
