It assists in manipulation of objects, micro-construction, maintenance, research and defence. It is connected to the central nervous system of the [[Techpriest]], and so is controlled through thought just like a biological limb. They are powerful mechanical tools with the strength to lift entire [[Battle Tank|Battle Tanks]] off the ground, or with the dexterity to deftly fix the smallest components or solder shut the most minute wounds in a vehicle’s flank.{{Fn|3}}
