Bosch PEX 400 AE Expert Random Orbit Sander: Sanding of the
Highest Order
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Do your complex renovation projects demand the highest standards
with regard to precision, power and comfort? Then the expert
random orbit sander from Bosch is the right tool for you: compact
design, low weight, outstanding handling and optimal user comfort
for controlled sanding and polishing. The secret of the Bosch
random orbit sander is its unique combination of rotary and
orbital actions, which ensures perfect and scratch-free quality
sanding with high-quality polishing performance.
These surprisingly versatile sanders differ in two basic ways
from the usual orbital sander. First, the base is round and not
rectangular (hence the confusion with a polisher) and second, the
sanding action is very different. The sanding grit on the
Velcro-type sanding discs follows a wild spiral route around the
surface you are sanding. The random orbital sander is up to five
times faster in removing material than an orbital sander. This is
especially noticeable towards the edge of the pad, where the
pattern is more energetic. It is also a much more versatile
sander, working well on both flat and curved surfaces due to its
flexible round backing pad. The finish that can be achieved is
very impressive; with its random orbit action it tends to
eliminate any tell-tale signs that a power sander was ever used
on the project.
The Bosch PEX 400 AE comes up with better guidance and
manageability than its predecessor, with lower vibration,
ergonomic design and switch positioning. Bosch has also improved
the usability of the PEX 400 AE by moving the handle nearer to
the centre of gravity. Even more user comfort is achieved with a
more compact size of the tool, being 25% smaller in volume than
its predecessor (newer version PEX 400 AE 2000 mm square vs.
older PEX 400 AE 2650 mm square).
The expert random orbit sander from Bosch stands out because it
delivers reliable performance with its 350 watt motor while also
having a particularly compact design and a machine weight of only
1.9 kg, and it provides a universal range of applications. The
tool is made for a perfect ergonomic grip and is usable with just
one hand if desired. Users are able to work in every position
they need. The PEX 400 AE comes with an additional auxiliary
handle, which allows better control especially when rough
sanding. The sander is also extremely robust thanks to the
reinforced aluminium housing.
Microfilter System
------------------
The integrated Microfilter System conveys the dust at high speed
directly through the sanding sheet and sanding pad, trapping it
in the microfilter box. The box can be emptied quickly and easily
by removing the lid, so it can be used repeatedly. The user is
able to use an external dust extraction, but the vacuum cleaner
must be suitable for the material to be worked. When vacuuming
dry dust that is especially detrimental to or
carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
Softgrip
--------
The gripping surfaces on the top of the machine reduce the risk
of the user losing his or her grip and therefore control of the
machine.

Bosch Electronic--Speed Selection
---------------------------------
The Bosch electronic speed control enables the user to set the
sanding rate by using the setting wheel to choose speeds from
4,000 to 21,200 sanding movements per minute. The sanding rate
pre-selection is set prior to sanding to match the sanding speed
to the material being worked. The user can also adjust the speed
while the machine is running if necessary. The required sanding
speed is dependent on the material and can be optimised through
experimentation.
Sanding Sheet with Velcro-type Backing
--------------------------------------
The Bosch Paper Assistant and the Velcro-type fastening system
make it easier than ever to change the sanding paper. The Bosch
Paper Assistant makes it very easy to accurately attach the
sanding paper to the sanding pad. The Velcro-type fastening
system ensures a secure hold. The sanding pad diameter is 125 mm
and the orbit diameter of is 2.5 mm. The sanding sheets are
fitted directly to the sanding plate. The hole pattern in the
sanding plate and sanding sheet must match. Before fitting the
sanding sheet, dust off Velcro-type backing of the sanding plate
by lightly tapping it.
