Our Success Stories
In precision manufacturing, we all talk about tolerances, stability, and repeatability. But there’s something many shops leave out of the equation: Maintenance of their clamping systems. It doesn’t matter if your workholding system was a well-planned investment, compatible with the most demanding standards. Over time, any component subjected to constant cycles, coolant exposure, metal particles, or pneumatic pressure starts to change: # Axes […]
Workholding decisions shape more than setup time. They define how stable a process is, how parts move through the shop, and whether repeatability is designed in or constantly corrected. Modular, quick-change, and zero-point systems are often discussed together. But they solve different problems. Confusion usually starts when one approach is used to fix a problem it wasn’t designed for. Modular […]
In many shops, every machine treats the part as if it were new. Each operation begins by re-establishing alignment, finding zero, and redefining position. That repetition feels normal, but it quietly introduces variation. A reference system exists to prevent that. It allows a part to move between machines while preserving the same geometric intent. The […]
In many CNC shops, setup time is treated as something to be minimized at the machine. The focus is often on doing the setup faster so production can begin. What rarely gets questioned is where that setup work is actually happening. Most setups include two very different types of work. Some tasks can only be done when the machine is stopped. […]
Testimonials
We were looking for a solution to optimize our machining of electrodes. Rapid helped us setup a multi-chuck system on our CNC machines. They made the fixtures we needed customized to fit our machines and didn’t charge additional for the customization. Thanks Ralph.
We bought a checking pin for our Edm department from Rapid. We put it on our Cmm and it was witin microns. Nice to know you can get high quality tooling at great pricing. We will be buying all of our tooling from Rapid going forward.
We wanted to improve our Edm department and needed a partner we could trust. Ralph came in and gave us really great advice in how to get our Edm department running alot more productively. then he backed it up with excellent quality Edm tooling for a fraction of the cost we would have paid otherwise.
