Heavy duty steel construction with externally gusseted stress points eliminates frame flexing. This ensures that all clamping pressure is applied to the mold.

For molds 500 to 1000lbs, an electric actuator provides smooth, positive, controlled clamping movement. For molds 500 - 1000lbs requiring power roll, clamping is accomplished with an electric double reduction gear head (AC motor).

For molds greater than 1000lbs, hydraulic pressure is used to control clamping. In the event of power failure or interruption, clamping pressure is maintained. Molds can also be rolled and locked into position manually.

For molds 2000lbs and above, clamping is 100% hydraulically controlled using high quality components. Maximum efficiency is maintained by only operating with the hydraulic unit when pressure is required. The rolling method is accomplished by a unique hydraulic double-ended cylinder/chain and sprocket combination for maximum simplicity and durability.

Operational controls are mounted in a NEMA enclosure using NEMA buttons and switches that are logically laid out for optimum efficiency and safety. 

Gripping pads with hardened teeth ensure positive mold adhesion, long pad life, and reduced maintenance costs.
 

Durable anti-roll lock mechanism provides a sure lock against accidental mold roll over in manual roll models. Manual roll models have mold position locks at 80° and 100°.

Built in stand legs provide upright stability when the unit is not in service. NO EXTERNAL STAND REQUIRED FOR STORAGE IMPROVING SHOP SAFETY.

The PMH Series requires only 120V AC input. A standard 120V three prong cord is supplied for ease of installation. Electric or hydraulic models can be held in any position.

Palmer also offers higher capacity Gantry Style Mold Handlers.
