Manual grinders and belt grinders are machine tools used for manual machining of surfaces. These machines are often used in metalworking, woodworking and mechanical engineering. The grinding machine consists of a rotating grinding wheel coated with abrasive. The workpiece to be machined is manually pressed and rotated on the rotating wheel to remove the material and smooth the surface. The speed and pressure can be controlled manually to achieve a uniform finish. The belt sander consists of an endless sanding belt stretched around two rollers. The workpiece is manually pressed onto the sanding belt and the friction removes the material and smoothes the surface. The speed and pressure can also be controlled manually here. Manual grinders and belt sanders are versatile and can be used to work on a variety of materials including metal, wood and plastic. They are often less expensive than automatic grinders and are well suited for machining smaller workpieces and prototypes. However, they require a lot of skill and experience to achieve a uniform and high-quality surface finish.
