{"product_id":"powermatic-dual-drum-sander-dds-237-37-7-5-hp-230v","title":"Powermatic Dual Drum Sander DDS-237 — 37\", 7.5 HP, 230V","description":"\u003ch2\u003eOverview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DDS-237 is a production-class dual drum sander with 37 inches of capacity, running 7.5 horsepower on single-phase 230V. Wide-capacity sanding usually means three-phase service; this one does not, which is the reason it lands in shops that would otherwise be capped at 25 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo drums in series is the whole point.\u003c\/strong\u003e Load the front drum with a coarse grit and the rear with a fine one, and stock comes out finish-sanded in a single pass instead of two runs and a paper change. The rear drum adjusts independently, so you dial the finishing drum relative to the roughing drum rather than accepting whatever height they share.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth drums are steel with a hard durometer rubber coating. Harder rubber deflects less under feed pressure, so the machine corrects a surface rather than following the contour already there — the difference between flat and merely smooth. The coating also applies even pressure across the workpiece, which is what prevents drum marking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe full-size cast iron table rides on four solid jackscrews with chain-drive timing, so all four corners move together and the table stays level across its full travel. That is what holds thickness consistent across a 37-inch panel. A heavy-duty poly conveyor belt grips stock positively at 8 or 12 surface feet per minute, forward or reverse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDual 4-inch dust ports with directional baffles pull from both drums rather than asking one port to serve the whole head — which keeps abrasive cleaner and extends its life measurably. A heavy steel cabinet minimizes vibration and gives you storage below the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5 HP, 230V single phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 37\" width, 5.25\" maximum board thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrums:\u003c\/strong\u003e two, 6\" diameter x 37\" long, hard durometer rubber over steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear drum:\u003c\/strong\u003e independently adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConveyor:\u003c\/strong\u003e two speed forward\/reverse, 8 and 12 SFPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDust ports:\u003c\/strong\u003e dual 4\" with directional baffles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDDS-237\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eStock number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePM9-1791320\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eMotor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5 HP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eInput power\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V, single phase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eNumber of sanding drums\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eDrum diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eDrum length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eDrum surface\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHard durometer rubber over steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eMaximum board width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eMaximum board thickness\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.25\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eConveyor speeds\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 and 12 SFPM, forward and reverse\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eConveyor belt\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeavy-duty poly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eTable\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull-size cast iron on four jackscrews with chain drive timing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eDust port outside diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4\" · dual, with directional baffles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eCabinet\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeavy steel with storage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eStyle type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual drum sander\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eNet weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e962 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eGross weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,142 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eUPC\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e662755945809\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\"\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eManuals and documentation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/assets.jpwindustries.com\/m\/662b1cdc47367159\/original\/DDS-225-237-Manual.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eDDS-225 \/ DDS-237 Owner's Manual (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOrdering and freight\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eShips by LTL freight at 1,142 lb gross.
