Description
The KraftTech Power Sander is a light duty orbital sander. It is used to sand small to medium sized wooden items and accepts various grits of sandpaper. The sanding pad oscillates in a small circle, constantly moving even when the user isn't, allowing for much faster sanding than with just paper.
Specifications
This sander was most likely designed to meet these customer specifications:
- Fast sanding
- Able to remove material quickly
- Comfortable to hold
- Doesn't hurt to use even with constant vibration against hand
- Removes dust from surface
- Reduces possible particulate in air
- AC Power Connection
- Can be plugged into wall outlet instead of battery
In addition to customer requests, engineering specifications might have also been provided:
- Accepts 60Hz 120VAC
- Runs on standard wall current
- Uses standard 1/4 sheets of sandpaper
- Won't require hard to find consumables
- Minimal internal losses
- More efficient power usage - correlates to Fast Sanding
- Minimal vibration felt by user
- Similar to Comfortable to hold, this also is a part of mechanical efficiency by requiring that more power go to the movement of the sanding plate than the user
