Complete In-house Production
A full complement of the latest fabrication equipment supported by an integrated engineering software suite ensures accurate and efficient processing of prototypes to production runs into the tens of thousands. Within our 13,000 square feet of manufacturing space, we specialize in fabricating cabinets, frames, weldments, brackets, and panels.
The Crew
At R-D Manufacturing, our workforce is diversified and experienced in all precision sheet metal fabrication phases.
A very low turnover rate has allowed our crew of dedicated operators and mechanics to become thoroughly cross-trained. Cross-training provides a key component to our consistent quality and efficient operation.
Operators who understand the nuances of multiple operations are able to provide invaluable input while processing materials. They also are able to check previous operations and prepare material for efficient handling at subsequent operations. R-D’s commitment to respect and fairness ensures that our workforce will continue to meet our customers’ high expectations.
Punching/Laser Cutting
Fully automated, 100% lights-out sheet processing is the core of R-Ds production.
Amada FLCAJ Fiber Laser is the best of both worlds. Automatic nozzle change and high-speed shuttle tables enable speed and flexibility to support short run and high-mix production. High Volume Production capabilities result from automated sheet handling and endless nitrogen assist gas produced right here at R-D.
Amada’s EM Turret Processing Center is shear production muscle. Equipped with automated sheet handling and in-turret tapping, the EM has the additional advantage of individual part Pick & Sort. Processed part blanks are neatly stacked, ready for down-stream processing. Automated tool sharping makes top condition tooling a no-brainer.
Forming
Our forming and bending departments are equipped with the latest technology in automated CNC bending. Amada HDS press brakes support multi-stage precision forming.
Recent facility additions include an LVD high-speed electric brake for small format components and an Amada 10’ HRB equipped with ATC tool changer, making the industry’s fastest possible setups part of our everyday routine.
Engineers choreograph intricate forming programs offline using Amada’s most recent 4i software. High production efficiency coupled with the setup efficiency of ATC Tool changer and Wila New Standard precision tooling is an unbeatable combination.
Secondary Operations
From our automated hardware insertion to our multistage sanding and deburring equipment, R-D is set up to maximize the efficiency of all secondary operations.
Specialized tooling enables us to perform as many secondary operations as possible within the turret/laser processing center. Automating these processes eliminates the waste of multiple handlings and ensures consistent quality.
