Orbital motion
Orbital motion refers to the addition of circular motion to the sabre saw blade. Orbital motion allows for faster cuts than a straight reciprocating motion. Orbital motion also helps remove debris from the blade's path. Four-position sabre saw models adjust to small and medium orbits for light metals, hardwoods and plastics; larger orbits make fast cuts through wood and plasterboard.
Orbital sander
The tight circular motion of orbital sanders is best applied to finish sanding and limited paint removal.
Orbital weld

Orbits per minute (opm)
Orbital motion sanders are rated in orbits per minute (opm), or the number of times the pad completes a full circle in a minute.
