Abstract

The invention concerns a sanding head for an abrasion arrangement, where the sanding head comprises an abrading drum with a centre axis and contact wheels at both ends of the abrading drum, where the contact wheels have the same or substantially the same centre axis as the abrading drum, and where the sanding head comprises a suspension swivel arrangement, and where the sanding head comprises at least one load sensor connected to at least one contact wheel. The invention also concerns an abrasion arrangement and a use of a sanding head. The object of the invention is to ensure an equal contact on the abrading drum as well as an equal contact over the entire length of the abrading drum, and where the invention can be used on plane, convex and/or concave surfaces.
