Patent attributes
A setting tool for driving fastening elements into a substrate is provided, the tool comprising a holder for holding a fastening element, a drive-in element, for transferring a fastening element held in the holder into the substrate along a setting axis, and a drive, for driving the drive-in element toward the fastening element along the setting axis, wherein the drive comprises an electrical capacitor, a squirrel-cage rotor arranged on the drive-in element and an excitation coil, which during rapid discharge of the capacitor is flowed through by current and generates a magnetic field that accelerates the drive-in element toward the fastening element, and wherein the setting tool has a means for detecting a temperature of the excitation coil and a control unit which is suitable for controlling an operating sequence of the setting tool in dependence on the detected temperature of the excitation coil.
