Frankford Arsenal Platinum Series Case Prep and Trim Center - Ultimate Reloading Tool for Precision Case Preparation
Frankford Arsenal
The Frankford Arsenal Platinum Series Case Trim & Prep Center is a 240V international model built for European reloaders who demand speed and precision at the bench. If you're preparing large volumes of rifle brass or simply want to eliminate the tedium of hand-trimming, this motorized prep station handles case trimming, chamfering, and primer pocket cleaning in one footprint—with minimal setup and maximum consistency.
The core innovation here is the adjustable collet and bushing system that indexes cases on the shoulder rather than relying on shell holders. That shoulder indexing delivers repeatable trimming depth across batches, and the included three collets and five bushings cover any shouldered case from .17 Remington all the way to .460 Weatherby. The trimming happens fast—the marketing materials promise seconds per case—and the ultra-hard HSS cutters stay sharp through thousands of rounds before dulling. Three output shafts accept standard 8-32 threaded accessories, so you're not locked into one ecosystem.
The machine itself is tough: aluminum and steel construction rated for heavy use, with an included adjustable stand and non-skid feet so it stays put whether you set it flat on the bench or rotate it vertically. A built-in storage box keeps collets, bushings, and spare tools organized and within arm's reach. The package includes a VLD inside chamfering tool (which reduces bullet seating damage), an outside chamfer tool, and both large and small primer pocket cleaning brushes—everything a serious brass handler needs to move from raw cases to loaded rounds.
This is the 240V international model with a European-style plug, designed for reloaders in voltage regions outside North America. If you're running a high-volume handloading operation or simply tired of manual case prep, it cuts real time out of the process.

The Frankford Arsenal Platinum Series accepts any shouldered rifle case from .17 Remington through .460 Weatherby, provided you have the correct collet and bushing for that caliber. The package includes three collets and five bushings to cover a wide range; additional collets and bushings can be purchased separately for other calibers. This trimmer does not work with rimless pistol cases or cases without a shoulder to index on.
The trimmer comes with three collets, five bushings, a VLD inside chamfering tool, an outside chamfer tool, large and small primer pocket cleaning tools, an adjustable stand with non-skid feet, and a built-in storage box. All the essential accessories for case trimming and basic prep are included; you don't need to buy separate tools to get started.
Yes—this is the international model with a 240V European-style plug, specifically designed for voltage and outlet standards in Europe and other 240V regions. Confirm your outlet type and voltage before purchase to ensure compatibility.
By indexing cases on the shoulder rather than using a shell holder, the prep center positions each case consistently in the same spot relative to the cutter. This repeatable positioning ensures that all cases in a batch are trimmed to the same precise length, which is critical for consistent chamber fit and firearm function—especially in precision or match ammunition.
