RHS EDM and CNC Productivity Bundles Make Every Setup Count. In EDM and CNC production, time between jobs can be just as costly as cutting time itself. If your operators spend hours changing setups, adjusting fixtures, or chasing alignment errors, your machines are not running at full capacity. At Rapid Holding Systems, we developed a series…
If you’ve been running WEDM for a while, you know how frustrating slow setups and alignment issues can be. Every extra minute spent adjusting tooling is a minute your machine isn’t cutting — and when you’re using OEM System 3R components, those delays can be costly in more ways than one. At Rapid Holding Systems,…
When a leading North American manufacturer serving the aerospace and defense industry began automating more of their CNC operations, one thing kept getting in the way: their workholding. Despite running a high-end UMC-1250 with a pallet pool, the shop was struggling with OEM-compatible base plates that simply couldn’t deliver the reliability or precision they needed.…
When it comes to aluminum diecast mold making, most shops know it’s no walk in the park. Unlike plastic injection molds, diecast tooling involves molten aluminum, Dievar steel blocks, and deep, complex cavities that require both precision and durability. These types of jobs can wear down your tooling, consume too much machine time, and lead…
For Wire EDM Shops, Setup Isn’t Just a Step—It’s the Foundation In Wire EDM, precision isn’t a luxury—it’s survival. Whether you’re cutting aerospace components or delicate medical parts, even the slightest misalignment can wreck tolerances and scrap an entire job. So why are many shops still relying on guesswork when it comes to aligning their…
Ask any EDM machinist what eats up their production time and they’ll likely mention the same thing: setup. Between adjusting clamps, checking for compatibility, and fine-tuning positioning, hours can disappear before the machine even starts cutting. But it doesn’t have to be that way. 1. Standardize Your Fixture System Using a modular, compatible system—like the 3R-242HP…
In today’s high-precision machining environment, scrap isn’t just a nuisance—it’s lost revenue. Whether you’re producing aerospace components, medical parts, or complex automotive fixtures, a single misaligned setup can ruin an entire run. For CNC and EDM professionals, proper workholding is the difference between flawless parts and expensive do-overs. 1. Eliminate Setup Guesswork Manual alignments and…
Stop wasting time adjusting fixtures. Here’s how System 3R-compatible tools can transform your EDM setup—and your results. Frustrated With Wire EDM Setups That Just Don’t Work? If you’re in Wire EDM Machining, you already know the pain: your machine is programmed, everything’s ready—and then you hit a setup issue. The clamp doesn’t fit. The fixture…
In WirecutEDM, every second counts. Your machines should be cutting, not waiting. So why are so many shops still setting up their tools after the machine’s done? Presetting stones like the RHS-WUS021 are changing that. They let your team calibrate and set up the next job while the current one is still running—off the machine,…
