Hand tool with a pneumatic spring percussion mechanism, linear motor and the control method

A hand tool (1) with a linear motor (2) with a rotor (3) which is along a stroke axis for limited movement (A) axially between two points of inflection (W) and on conveys a percussion piston (5) via an air spring (4) can be driven, wherein the Istzustandsbestimmung of the rotor (3) formed sensors are connected to a calculation means (9), which is via power electronics (33) connected to at least one excitation coil (10) of the linear motor (2), wherein the rotor (3) in at least one turning point (W) against a contact element (11a, 11b) against the displaceable and electromagnetically pressed. In addition, a control method is described.
