Hilti shows the Nuron battery-pwered cordless platform expansion including a diamond core rig, three rotating lasers and two cut-off saws at World of Concrete.
Hilti North America, a global leader providing innovative tools, technology, software, and services to the commercial construction industry, further delivers on its promise to expand the all-on-one Nuron battery platform with innovation
that meets the needs of contractors including the launch of its DD 150-U-22 Cordless diamond core rig, two DSH 600/700 cut-off saws and PR 4/40/40G-22 Rotating Lasers.
The new DD 150-U-22 is a universal solution for both hand-held and rig-mounted coring. Powered by Nuron, it is the first core rig on the same battery platform as handheld cordless tools—meaning that it offers contractors the flexibility to use the same set of interchangeable batteries for all Hilti tools, whether for light or heavy-duty applications, without compromising on performance.

Along with the DD 150-U-22, Hilti is adding to its Diamond innovations by unveiling the second generation of two new cut-off saws, the DSH 600-22 ATC and DSH 700-22 ATC, which showcase power, safety and comfort-enhancing features stemming from direct customer feedback.
Hilti is also launching three new Rotating lasers all on the Nuron cordless platform. The PR 4 for horizontal levelling. The PR 40, a red laser universal tool, for horizontal, vertical and slope applications and the PR 40G, a universal tool, that offers increased visibility with a green beam. All lasers offer intuitive one-button control, automatic functions within 300 m, and easier alignment for formwork, slope grading, and squaring — ideal for one-person operation. These rotators are backed by Hilti’s rugged design, calibration, and repair service. Plus, smart asset tracking and battery monitoring on the Nuron platform help boost efficiency and simplify tool management.

The company’s development of equipment like the DD 150-U-22 showcases its continued intent to dominate other spaces in construction, beyond concrete and fastening for which it is most well-known.
“Hilti’s goal is to be the best productivity partner for our customers,” said Mike McGowan, Region Head and CEO of Hilti North America. “We have the tools, technology and services to help reduce complexities, stay on time and on budget, while minimizing safety risks—ultimately making construction better.
And with these most recent innovations, we’re better equipped than ever to support customers from start to finish.”
