What are they?
Today manufacturers offer many different modifications of orbital sanders. Eccentric machines are very popular among all materials handling equipment. Orbital grinders efficiently process metal surfaces, wood and plastic, and polish surfaces. As already mentioned, devices are used in car repair shops for polishing passenger cars and for preparing a car body for painting.
Basically, the pneumo-orbital sander is used in production. Compared to an electric grinder, pneumo-orbital has its advantages:
- its weight is significantly less, and thanks to this, this tool is easily used to level ceilings and walls;
- the pneumatic sander can be used in areas with a high explosion hazard, where the use of an electric tool is strictly prohibited.
However, for owners, this device is not as convenient as an electric one. There are several reasons for this:
- extra costs will be required for repairs, purchase and maintenance of an air compressor;
- space must be allocated for the compressor;
- to use the pneumatic machine in another place, you need to move it and the compressor;
- continuous sound from the compressor.
This tool works on the network, it is very convenient, it is easier and easier to carry. Electric grinders are plugged into a simple socket, so the market is dominated by electric models.
Peculiarities
The eccentric sander is designed for finishing various surfaces such as metal, stone, plastic and wood. These devices are distinguished by the fact that they carry out the highest quality grinding. The surface becomes absolutely smooth without any imperfections.
An orbital vehicle is a convenient, reliable and uncomplicated tool. The device has a small weight within 1-3 kg, it does not require a lot of pressure to work. ESM power varies from 300 to 600 W. At low power, the device makes high revolutions, and at high - low. The main characteristic of an orbital vehicle is the range of motion. The average is 3-5 mm.
The maximum disc size is 210 mm. The optimal interval is considered to be 120-150 mm. Orbital cleaning machines are used to clean plastic, wood and metal surfaces. Orbital devices are also used in auto repair shops and furniture factories. Ordinary users also choose similar devices.
