The SFM the belt runs at is my understanding. Regular "wood" belt sanders (which is what I've got) run <2000 SFPM and don't have much in the way of HP. Actual belt "grinders" have about 1 HP per inch width of belt and they operate at 5-7000 SFPM. I have a Delta/Rockwell with a 6" X 48" belt and a 12" disk.
I have had a surface grinder for a few years and never really use it because for me surface grinding is so slow and tedious that I cant stand doing it. So I decided to do a belt conversion to speed up the process. First I needed to make a base to mount the arm for the conversion assembly. I used ...
Personally I don't like worrying about dressing the wheels, my surface grinder belt conversion is easy to maintain. I also have a higher durometer wheel to address the flex issue, it's 90 duro. I like the quick change ability of the belts, and they are …

Well-Known Member. Apr 5, 2011. #1. So I am in the process of converting my surface grinder to run belts. I have been in contact with a few contact wheel companies looking for quotes. I talked to Stephen Bader this morning and mentioned that it would be unsafe to run a 1in wide belt on a 2in wide contact wheel.
Finally got me a surface grinder. It's a Harig Super 612. Here's my take on a belt conversion. Plates are 1/2" steel. I re-used the dust shield mount to attach the up-rite to. The tension and tracking arm pivots on it and has a gas strut for tension. I …
It doesn't have coolant so I'm hoping a belt conversion will run cooler. It could be my technique but I'm not sure stones are the way to go on thin stock without coolant. I like those SGA's like your making. The guy selling the surface grinder also had a completely rebuilt mill for $5000.00 Thing was beautiful.
I worked with two ABS MS both who have belt conversion surface grinders. From what I can tell, the primary reason to do the conversion is the flexibility of surfacing various materials and setups that a belt can give you. You can surface stag, handles, liners, folder work, pretty much anything....
Alan Longmire. If you don't need the precision to do folders, a disk grinder is great for flattening stuff. If you need to maintain +/- 0.0015" flatness, a real surface grinder is needed. Then there are the various surface grinding attachments for belt grinders. Travis Wuertz, OBM, and KMG all make those now.

The precision that surface grinding brings to the table is usually overkill for knife making (with the exception of some folders). the knowledge needed to dial in wheel selection is steep and the cost of wheels in general makes "discovery" too painful.... That all being said...a simple belt conversion on that machine would be worth the trouble.
In the case of this grinder, it's 1/2" thick cast iron. All I have to do to swap from stones to belts, is open the guard door, pull the stone off, put the contact wheel on, tighten the hub flange, slap a belt on. Takes 30 seconds or so, and I've got a guard in each circumstance.

1,750. Mar 4, 2020. #6. A surface grinder is a precision machine that allows the operator to grind a part down to the tenths. The wheel is dressed to be parrallel with the chuck and with proper selection of wheel it will not wear from one end of part to the other. A wheel is made of the same materials as a belt.

My setup on how I converted a 1934 BS surface grinder to run on 1x72" belts
Brown & Sharpe surface grinder No. 2 is power feed 6 x 18 and No. 2B is manual feed only. After installing a Dunbar roller table bearing on my 1929 B&S No. 2 after rebuilding it in 1979, I find I almost always use manual feed, it is so easy to crank. Larry. 05-11-2008, 01:16 AM #3.
