RAM Press

Ceramics and Pottery Tools

A RAM press is a machine, invented in the United States in the mid-1940s, used to press clay into molded shapes such as plates and bowls. In operation, a slice of de-aired clay body is placed between two shaped, porous molds, and vertical movement of the molds presses the clay body into the required shape.
