Rapid Machining Adds New Machining Centers, Now Open 24 Hours

Online, October 14, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Rapid Machining, a dedicated rapid prototype machine shop has added two more Haas CNC machining centers, bringing the total to 13 CNC machining and turning centers. All of Rapid Machining's Haas machining and turning centers are less than two years old and most less than a year old. Rapid Machining is already seeing increased productivity with the newer machines, so much so that they have added a 3rd shift to the operation.

Complementing the 34 employees on first and second shifts, Rapid Machining's 6 employee third shift is a powerful contributor to ensuring that they turn expedited parts in days, not weeks. Rapid Machining is now running around the clock from 6:00 am Monday morning to 6:00 am Saturday morning, and sometimes even all day Saturday and Sunday when the demand is high.

"Rapid growth required the purchasing of more CNC machining centers to meet demand" said James Jacobs, President of Rapid Machining. "Our new, much larger shop has room for many more CNC machining and turning centers in the future as we continue to grow"

Rapid Machining is one of the largest dedicated Rapid Prototype Machining companies in the country. Working in a variety of plastics and metals including tool steels and stainless steels, Rapid Machining delivers parts complete to customer prints including drilling, tapping and inserting heli-coils as required. Typical quantities of custom machined prototypes are one to twenty parts.
