Mid Volume Loading

Advanced Cartridge Loading System Dual Powder Drop Loading

The OTM-30A features a standard dual powder drop system controlled via touchscreen, allowing users to select single or dual drops with volumetric chamber adjustments on the powder slide for accurate loads typically ranging +/-0.1 grains from the set point. Its 2″ press plate stroke and guided bullet seat mechanism deliver consistent seating at rates up to 75 PPM, offering unparalleled flexibility with quick tooling swaps for versatile, lower-volume runs while maximizing output and minimizing variability.

• Process: Dual powder drop and bullet seating for efficient cartridge loading
• Outcome: Tight load control, reduced defects, and optimized cycle times in ammo loading
• Control: Allen Bradley PLC, I/O Link architecture, 7″ color touchscreen with physical buttons for reliable operation

Precision Feeding + Quality Inspections

Experience enhanced efficiency with the OTM-30A’s integrated feeders and inspections, including standard dual powder and bullet OAL laser inspections to validate presence (though micro weight variances are not inspected), auto-eject for bad parts, and optional pre-primed case inspection or cracked case detection to minimize defects and accelerate workflows in ammunition manufacturing. The OTM-160A left-hand case feeder and OTM-160B right-hand bullet feeder ensure stable, accurate feeding across a wide caliber range, protecting component integrity and enhancing overall productivity.

• Mechanism: OTM-160A case feeder, OTM-160B bullet feeder with sensors for precision ammo processing
• Benefit: Reduced handling, faster changeovers, and cleaner workflows with minimal operator intervention in production
• Applications: Loading for pistol, rifle, and large-caliber casings from 380 ACP to 338 Lapua

Robust, Production-Ready Design

Engineered for the rigors of ammunition production, the OTM-30A features Nickel coatings for superior corrosion resistance and surface hardness, full guarding with 1/4″ polycarbonate windows, and magnetic door interlocks for operator safety. With anti-static systems, IP65 minimum and Class 1 Division 2 electrical ratings, this USA-made machine supports reliable, low-maintenance operation in challenging environments—making it the ultimate choice for flexible loading equipment.

• Components: Dual powder drop, guided bullet seat, OTM-160A/B feeders, anti-static systems for durable loading
• Benefit: High uptime, reduced maintenance, and robust performance in ammo manufacturing settings
• Environment: Protected surfaces, sealed electronics, and safe operator access for long-term reliability

Product Feeding

Every OTM-30A comes standard with the OTM-160A left-hand case feeder and OTM-160B right-hand bullet feeder, featuring bowl level sensors, a polycarbonate lid with dome lights for status, and quick-swap tooling for seamless caliber changeovers. This intuitive design minimizes downtime, requires minimal training, and enhances efficiency in ammunition loading—ensuring smooth transitions without compromising precision or quality. An optional powder hopper can be added to reduce refilling time, allowing staff to focus on outgoing product quality rather than filling products.
