Pro-Edge Deluxe

This package is built around the PE01A Deluxe machine offers exact sharpening of your tools every time. One of the most common problems in woodturning is maintaining the angles on various woodturning tools.

The machine has an angle setter which locks into position at the required angle. You can even lock the angle at a custom setting if you prefer.

Unlike a traditional grinding wheel, the sharpening belt runs over a flat bed so there’s no other adjustment required.

The machine can be angled at any position to suit the operator and is fitted with a guide table that can be set at a range of angles to suit just about any tool - 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 45°, 60°, 80° and 90°.

Overheating of the tool is reduced by the cutting effects of the belts, rather than grinding away of traditional stone wheels.

The Pro-Edge is without doubt a very simple system to use and with it’s host of jigs will aid the sharpening of almost anything in addition to  your woodturning tools. There are a wide range of abrasive belts to sharpen and reshape the cutting angle or repair damaged tools. Course grit belts are designed to re-profile your tools while the finer grits can give an almost polished sharp cutting edge.

This compact machine is built from solid steel and only requires a small space on the workbench, but Robert Sorby have also produced a lightweight floor standing cabinet that can house the Pro-Edge and provide plenty of storage. The pivot action of the machine is designed for the comfort of the operator.
