BDSM 230 C Belt and Disc Sander – Economical, versatile and stable for all workshop tasks
The BDSM 230 C is a combined belt and disc sander with a competitive price and complete features, suitable for deburring, flat finishing, edge and contour sanding on wood, plastics, and non-ferrous metals. The graphite coating on the belt platen improves abrasive glide and finish quality; adjustment screws facilitate the parallel centering of the belt. The spring tensioner maintains constant belt tension, while the quick vertical/horizontal conversion allows for immediate adjustments to the workpiece.
The rigid, torsion-free structure reduces vibrations and ensures smooth operation. The inclinable disc table (Ø 230 mm) can also be used as a support during belt sanding, increasing flexibility. With a belt speed of 5.5 m/s and 1420 rpm no-load speed, the BDSM 230 C offers high performance in a simple and economical way.

Frequently Asked Questions
What grit size to use for different materials?
Metal roughing (fast removal): P40–P60. Intermediate metal sanding: P80–P120. Metal finishing: P150–P240. Wood roughing: P60–P80. Wood finishing: P100–P180. For aluminum, use specific aluminum belts with open coat to prevent clogging. Do not mix belts used on metal with those used on wood.
Is the workbench inclinable for bevels?
Yes, on all models in the MS/BS/HV/BDSM range, the support table is adjustable (typically 0°–45°) for sanding bevels and angled surfaces. Check the maximum angle in the technical table for the specific model.
Are replacement abrasive belts available?
Yes. Original Bernardo abrasive belts in various grit sizes for all models in the range are available with 3–5 working day shipping. Specify length, width, and model when ordering.
Does the sander have integrated dust extraction?
Yes — all MS/BS/HV series S models have integrated dust extraction (indicated in the name). Connect an extractor with adequate airflow to the port to maintain cleanliness in the environment and visibility during processing.
Is assistance available?
