The speed range, measured in Oscillations Per Minute (OPM), determines how fast the blade or accessory moves, impacting both the efficiency and the finish quality of your work. A wider OPM range lets you adapt to different materials—lower speeds for delicate tasks and higher speeds for aggressive cutting or sanding. The Makita XMT04ZB offers a range of 10,000–20,000 OPM, while the Kreg KPTMT100A covers 7,000–17,000 OPM, giving users flexibility for a variety of applications. With different OPM ranges available, you can select a tool that best matches your material and application needs.
