Abstract: A power trowel that includes a handle, a housing, a blade assembly including a trowel blade, a motor coupled to the blade assembly, a plurality of sensors configured to generate output signals related to an operational state of the power trowel, and a controller connected to the motor and the plurality of sensors. The controller is configured to receive the output signals from the plurality of sensors, determine, based on the output signals, a speed setting for the blade assembly and a pitch angle for the trowel blade, and control the motor to drive the blade assembly at the speed setting with the trowel blade at the pitch angle.

Abstract: A power tool is disclosed and includes a housing and a motor disposed within the housing. The power tool further includes a first blade and a second blade movable relative to the first blade by the motor. During operation, a cutting stroke length of the first blade relative to the second blade is selectively adjustable based on a direction of rotation of the motor.

Abstract: Systems and methods for power tools having touch sensors. One power tool includes a housing, a motor, a first handle, a second handle, and a controller. The first handle includes a user input configured to be actuated by a first hand of a user. The second handle includes a touch sensor configured to detect a second hand of the user on the second handle. The controller is configured to determine whether the user input is actuated, determine whether the second hand of the user is on the second handle, control, in response to both the user input being actuated and the second hand of the user being on the second handle, the motor to drive the motor, and prohibit, in response to the user input being actuated and the second hand of the user not being on the second handle, operation of the motor.

Abstract: A power tool including a housing, a battery pack interface, a user input, a speed control interface, and a controller. The battery pack interface is configured to receive a removable and rechargeable battery pack. The user input is configured to control driving of a motor when actuated by a user. The speed control interface includes a first interface portion and a second interface portion. The first interface portion includes a capacitive touch surface configured to generate a speed setting signal in response to detecting a touch of the user. The second interface portion includes a display that includes a plurality of indicators configured to indicate a speed setting of the power tool. The controller includes a memory and an electronic processor. The controller is configured to receive the speed setting signal, and control, in response to the actuation of the user input, the motor to the speed setting.
