Functional Description
The PROXXON belt sander BSL 115/E is a light,
compact and user-friendly unit. It can be used in
modeling, tool and mould manufacture, finishing
jobs, but also in repair work on motor vehicles. The
unit enables metal, plastic and wood to be
processed. It can be used for regrinding moulds,
grinding small apertures and for polishing. It can
additionally be used for deburring and breaking
edges, removing paint and finishing surfaces. Turning
is carried out via a maintenance-free miter gear. The
sanding belt is driven by a robust aluminum drum
which is equipped with a double-bearing. The
tensioning roller is also equipped with ball bearings.
The grinding head may be swiveled, by simply
pressing the retaining knob, so that work in awkward
places is also possible.
