2018 ALM MHL2P Welding Positioner

This 2018 ALM MHL2P is a fixed headstock/tailstock welding positioner rated at a 4,000 lb capacity, purpose-built for handling and rotating heavy weldments with precision and safety. Standout features include solenoid-controlled safety pawls, 24" of vertical travel, a 36" starting centerline height, a 9" powered rotator delivering 42,000 in-lbs of rotational torque, and full 360° CW/CCW rotation at 1.0 RPM. A selectable fixed or pivot mounting face, a 3000mm x 200mm backbone with 28mm hole pattern, an 803 lb capacity fixture table with included clamps, 470V/3-phase/400 AMP rotary ground, and a Flex EX2 remote control pendant round out a complete, production-ready positioning package that slots cleanly into any heavy fabrication or welding cell.

Compared to ALM's smaller single-post welding positioners, the MHL2P adds a fixed tailstock for true headstock/tailstock operation — a major capability leap over single-support units that can only clamp one end of a workpiece. Where earlier single-post models leave operators wrestling with long or unbalanced assemblies, the MHL2P secures the weldment between centers, eliminates wobble through the full rotation envelope, and gives welders a stable, repeatable position for consistent arc quality on longer parts.
