When surfaces need to be machined, then there’s really no way around a sanding tool. Find out which sanding tool is best suited for which area of application and which one you can use to give your projects just the right finishing touch …
- Belt Sander
Belt sanders such as the PBSS 10‑600 from Trotec are ideal tools for rapid, large-scale sanding of coarse structures. This way, stubborn leftover wallpaper can be just as easily removed as floor paint or old varnish from your doors or garden furniture. On top of that, belt grinders can also be used in stationary operation for chamfering laths, straightening bars or deburring threaded rods – even for derusting ironwork and much more. - Orbital Sander
As an alternative to the belt sander, an orbital sander such as the multifunctional sander PMSS 10-220 from Trotec, can also be used to remove material from somewhat smaller surfaces. Instead of a rotating sanding belt, the orbital sander has a sanding plate that vibrates at a very high frequency – in the case of the classic orbital sander, this is rectangular so that work can be carried out cleanly right up to the edge of the surface. - Delta Sander
The delta sander is a specially shaped orbital sander. Due to the triangular shape of its oscillating plate, corners and angles can also be reached very easily and fine sanding work can be carried out there. The multifunctional sander PMSS 10-220 can also be converted into a fully-fledged delta sander in just a few steps. - Eccentric Sander
In contract to all other sanders, the eccentric sander has an oscillating and simultaneously rotating sanding plate. The eccentric movement of the plate makes eccentric sanders much more suitable for fine sanding and polishing all surfaces. By changing the three sanding plates supplied, the multifunctional sander PMSS 10-220 or PMSS 11-220 can also take on the function of an eccentric sander. - Multi-function sander
Multi-function sanders combine the range of applications of different sanding tools in one device – for example, the PMSS 10-220 or the PMSS 11-20 is an orbital sander, delta sander and eccentric sander in one. The advantage for the use is, among other things, that instead of three individual tools, he/she only needs to purchase one, which results in significant savings. - Angle grinder
These sanders are mainly used in metalwork. Angle grinders can be used to cut through sheet metal, pipes or profiles and to derust or polish large metal surfaces. Many different grinding discs can be attached to an angle grinder in order to cover a broad spectrum of applications. - Straight grinder
Such straight grinders are ideal for spot metal grinding. Depending on the application, different grinding discs can be clamped in place and rotated at a preselectable speed. In this way, straight grinders can be used to grind and derust metals, plaster welt seams or deburr workpieces. Due to the narrow grinding head, straight grinders can reach practically any spot, for example the inside walls of pipes. - Floor grinder
In contract to the above-mentioned sanders, this sanding tools is used exclusively in a stationary position. Different floor grinders are available depending on the application. The double grinder with grinding discs of different grain sizes on both sides is ideal for sharpening drill points or cutting tools such as scissors and knives. With an integrated belt sander, the field of application is extended to include coarse and fine sanding of wood or soft metal.
Our recommendation – the Belt Sander PBSS 10‑600
The Belt Sander PBSS 10‑600 has an ideally balanced power transmission system that transfers the power of the 600 W motor to the belt shaft with maximum efficiency in each of the seamlessly preselectable speed levels. Moreover, the belt grinder accommodates an automatic belt centring, which centres the grinding belt automatically upon activation of the device. The belt can also be fine-tuned specifically for rimless, flush grinding applications. Thanks to the integrated tension lever system, the grinding belt can be replaced in just seconds without any tools. On top of that, the grinder has a robust dust collector box with an integrated filter system, which can be firmly attached to the device with snap locks and simply removed for emptying.
The Belt Sander PBSS 10‑600 is delivered ready for use with a wood sanding belt (80 grain) – including a dust collection box, reducer, connection adapter for external chip extraction and two table clamps for fixing the tool in stationary operation, reduced from £54.58 to only £33.46.
Our recommendation – the 3-in-1-Multi-function Sander PMSS 10‑220
With this 3-in-1 multi-function sander you have the right standing tool for every situation. Thanks to its three variably usable interchangeable sanding plates, you can transform the PMSS 10-220 into an orbital, delta or eccentric sander as required in just a few steps. The 220 W motor performs reliably in any application and shows no weakness even under load – in fact, it allows infinitely variable preselection from 14,000 to 24,000 vibrations per minute. This ensures material-compatible work for every surface. Compared to other sanding devices available on the market, the sanding plates of the PMSS 10-220 are characterised by their large sanding surfaces. Larger sanding surface, greater work progress – your extra advantage with this Trotec tool.
The PMSS 10-220 is available in a complete case, including a dust collection box, adapter for external dust extraction, orbital sanding plate, eccentric sanding plate, triangular sanding plate and two sanding sheets per attachment with 80 and 240 grit, reduced from £49.44 to only £28.91.
