Default Edge Sander Terminolgy

I am getting ready to put an edge sander on Ebay. But I am not familiar
with the term "oscillating" as used with the various Ebay listings.
Does the belt oscillate? From the pictures it appears that the belt is
conventional in that it is simply driven by the motor spindle in a
continuous manner. Just like a conventional belt sander with which I am
familar.


Thanks
Bob AZ

Spindle/drums actually go up/down as well as rotate.
