Palmgren Arbor Presses

Palmgren arbor presses deliver the heavy force needed for riveting, squeezing, punching, bending, and other pressing applications. A removable machined steel anvil provides accurate work support in four slot positions. The depth stop securely clamps to the ram and withstands full pressure. A lockable fine-adjustment adjusting screw accurately limits the depth of the ram stroke. Punches or tools may be added to the end of the ram with the aid of a magnetic insert. The ram is reversible with one end solid and the other end with a hole and magnet to hold bits and tools. Ratcheting models allow the operator to maintain the arm in the optimal leverage position with consistent application of force. In addition, they have more clearance over the table for broaching or pressing large items. Ratcheting presses are counterweighted for rapid handle return and have a quick ram advance via the press's side-mounted hand wheel.
