g0679 stroke/Edge sander
platen press
Movement
a stroke sander is unique in that it uses a movable
platen to apply sanding pressure to the workpiece.
this allows a user to vary the amount of material
removed over different areas of the workpiece.
the platen press moves in two different planes.
Movement in the vertical plane allows for varia-
tions in the amount of pressure applied while
movement in the horizontal plane allows the user
to sand different areas of the workpiece. this hori-
zontal movement, combined with the horizontal
movement of the table allows the entire surface of
large workpieces to be sanded (
figures 48 ).
basic Operations
Stroke Sander
1. place the workpiece on the table and against
the table workstop.
—if the workpiece is larger than the table,

stops.
2.
Make sure the workstops are secure and that
they will not move during operation.
