Aluminum Parallel Motion Assembly (APMA) (OK-i6000):
The Aluminum Parallel Motion Assembly (APMA) is a replacement for the original steel Parallel Motion Assembly (PMA) and is designed to run at higher speeds. It is easily retrofitted into the ragsdale Bodymaker frame with minor modifications needed. The original motor mount guards are retained and it utilizes lubrication from the existing system.
