What Is a Bench Sander?
Sanders are tools that rub abrasives against a material to remove burrs, paint, finishing products, or simply portions of the material itself. These come in a variety of shapes and sizes, ranging from a simple hand-held sanding block to a large, industrial-sized power machine. A bench sander is a stationary sander mounted on a table or stand. To use a bench sander, a person holds the material against the moving sandpaper.
