How to reduce noise on a construction site? Silent site machines

Grinders and hammer drills often exceed 90 dB(A). Sept Tools brushless machines sit around 60 dB(A) at the operator position, a benchmark measured on reference machines. Enough to work on occupied sites, hospitals or schools, without complaints or restricted hours.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Eland Bras de Poncage?

The Eland Bras de Poncage is an articulated-arm carrier that positions the Fouine XB165 sanding head at ceiling height around ducts, beams, and other obstacles that a straight trolley cannot pass. It is a carrier, not a sander.

What working height does the Eland arm cover?

The Eland arm covers working heights from 2.20 to 3.80 m, adjusted to the ceiling and the obstacles on site. The arm pivots to reach around fixed elements that block a wheeled trolley.

How much weight does the Eland arm carry?

The Eland arm itself weighs 40 kg and carries a maximum load of 120 kg. Deployed with the Fouine XB165 sanding head mounted, the working assembly weighs around 45 kg, all supported by the arm rather than the operator's shoulders.

What is this anti-fatigue equipment for?

It carries the machine and its weight instead of the operator (trolley, arm or gantry) to reduce fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). It is a passive, non-motorised accessory.

Which machines does it fit?

It is designed to hold our grinding, drilling or planing machines depending on the model. The drive stays that of the machine it carries; the accessory adds no motor of its own.

Does it really reduce strain?

By shifting the weight and effort onto the equipment rather than the operator, it aims to cut MSDs. An independent study (Distrimo, with Bouygues Construction) measured around a 56% drop in forearm vibration on Sept Tools setups.

What is the delivery lead time for the machine?

We confirm the dispatch lead time with your quote within 24 business hours: it depends on the model and workshop availability. Common spare parts and consumables are kept in stock in Roanne so your jobsite is not held up.

What warranty and after-sales come with the machine?

The whole range carries a 24-month warranty, parts and labour. After-sales is handled in our Roanne workshop, with spare parts in stock and a reply within 24 business hours, no call centre.
