DESCRIPTION
Palmgren 6” Belt and 9” Disc Sander is constructed of rugged die
cast aluminum and cast iron providing stability and vibration-free
operation. The 6 x 48” belt and 9” diameter disc are used to sand,
deburr, bevel and grind large workpieces of wood, plastic and
metal.
The 6 x 48” belt housing can be pivoted from vertical to horizontal
for sanding large, straight workpieces. The belt assembly includes a
tilting, cast iron table with miter gauge and dust collection chute.
The 9” diameter disc can be used to sand or bevel surfaces with
the use of 0 to 45º scaled aluminum table. The 9” diameter disc
assembly includes a tilting table with miter gauge slot and dust
collection chute.
The 3” diameter idler drum permits the sanding of contoured
shapes and finishes by positioning the adjustable platen from a
horizontal to a vertical position.
The two dust collection chutes with adaptable exhaust ports allow
for quick removal of dust. The adjustable miter gauge can be used
on both the belt and disc tables for guiding the workpiece at a
desired angle while sanding.
