摘要:Disclosed is a surface finishing pad ( 59 ) having a dust extraction aperture ( 60 ). The pad may have multiple finishing areas ( 63 ) or a number of pads may be mounted to a mounting plate ( 48, 62 ) that is driven by orbital drive means. The dust extraction apertures align ( 60 ) with vacuum ports through which dust may be carried away from a surface undergoing finishing. The mounting plate ( 48 ) may have a plurality of channels ( 46 ) to direct dust to vacuum ports for extraction. The pad and the machine disclosed, which uses the pads, allows large areas to be finished without dust clogging the pads.
