The machine has a hopper and feeds the mold with another hydraulic actuator; manual feed would probably not allow this speed (3/min.). The ram is made locally on first class equipment, so I think there are some good reasons buying it.

Uwe,
    Thanks for the info. I'm completely unfamiliar with the device, so it's of particular interest to me.
