Differentiating different types of sanders might seem an odd task but ithappens to be a very important concern for all professional sanders andbeginners who love perfectly sanded floors and nothing short of perfection.Drum sander and Orbital sander are two of the most popular and most usedsander equipments and differentiating them is not at all a difficult task. Forinstance, we can relate a drum Floor sander rental to chain saw while orbitalsander to a hedge trimmer. Both have the same purpose and applications butone does the work at a better and faster rate with quite a lot of power ascompared to other.

Just like the example cited, some of the projects will require a ‘chainsaw’ (drumsander) while others can only be finely finished with a ‘hedge trimmer’ (orbitalsander). Comparing the cutting action of a decent drum sander with that of anorbital sander, the drum sander is pretty rigorous in its sanding process. As itmoves at a speed of 1800 rpm and only a small portion is left in contact withthe floor, the resultant cutting action is quite aggressive. So it can be said thatwhile a drum sander cuts through the wood layer, the orbital sander onlygrinds.

Thus if you’re planning to level your wooden floor orrequire to repair a damage by giving the layer a finefinish, you would definitely require the drum sanderas an orbital sander might not prove to be effective atall. However for beginners and very fine sanding offloor where only a thin layer of the flooring has to besubjected to the sander, an orbital sander is the rightchoice.

Just like its name, this sander is orbital in its functionalityand nature, providing with a less risky sanding experienceto the users. The plate moves in random fashion and thereis no need for the sander to follow the wood’s grains.Whenever you require sanding to be done on new floorsor on floors with no noticeable damage on the outer layer,it is better to plug in an orbital sander that applies lesspressure on the floor layer, keeping it intact.
