Rapid Design actuator enters Metal Integrity machine-tending cell

Sep 9, 2025 · Deployment · Rapid Design Solutions · Motion Components

Metal Integrity put a Rapid Design Solutions CNC vise actuator into operation in an OB7 robotic machine-tending cell after its original pneumatic vise failed to hold the required tolerances.

  • Metal Integrity automated its existing Kurt workholding with a Rapid Design Solutions CNC vise actuator.
  • The actuator replaced a pneumatic vise that could not hold the target part's required tolerances.
  • The completed OB7 cell raised weekly output from 180 parts to 475 on its first job.

Rapid Design Solutions supplies automation kits for CNC machine-tending workflows. Its Rapid Vise UR+ Kit is listed in UR+ as a turnkey vise-actuation package with pneumatic controls, sensors, cables and URCap software for Universal Robots cells.
