Makita Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT)
Makita has adapted the science of earthquake engineering into power tools with Makita's Anti-Vibration Technology(AVT). AVT is an exclusive innovative counterbalance design that provides the professional a power tool solution with up to three-times less vibration, less noise and more efficient power than the competition. Seismic research has developed this damping science to absorb shocks and protect buildings from the devastation of earthquake vibrations. AVT dynamic damping involves reciprocating engineering where a mechanical damper, effectively a counter-balance weight, provides an equal and opposite anti-vibration force that puts an equal mass directly opposite the point at which the striker bolt delivers the impact joules to the breaker steel, carbide bit or recipro saw blade. As vibration is eliminated, power is efficiently increased. Without the dissipation of power through vibration, more of the generated energy in the motor can be delivered to the tool bit itself.

This review is from: Makita HM1810 Breaker Hammer with AVT (Tools & Home Improvement)

Makita has done it again! I bought this tool based on my history of good results with Makita tools. I was not dissappointed. This HM1810 chews through concrete like butter, and with very little vibration felt in the handle. It seems quiet for what it is doing. This is positively a heavy hitting "secret weapon," if you work in concrete.
