Description of the machine
The PROXXON BS/A belt sander is a light,
compact and handy device ideal for model,
tool and mould construction but which can
also be used for the repair of motor vehicles.
Application examples are
• grinding in of grooves
• correcting of especially inaccessible areas
• re-sanding of especially complexly formed
shapes
• grinding out of small openings and break-
throughs, regardless of the materials, and
also high-strength steels
• straightening, smooth sanding and high-shine
polishing of surfaces: the pulled grinding
does not leave annoying grinding marks
• grinding of saw blades, chisels and even
cutting tools
• precision polishing of surfaces
• removal of paints and varnishes
• rounding off of edges
• deburring and chamfering of precision parts, etc.
The high-grade corundum sanding belts enable
machining of metal, plastic and wood.
An extremely robust gearbox transfers the moti-
ve force to the driving roller for the sanding belt
at the gear head.
This runs on the grinding head where it is diver-
ted by a tightening roller at the front end.
The grinding head can be swivelled to enable
work even at inaccessible areas.
