New Fixtures RWP-018SS and RWP-019SS

Today we are offering two new stainless steel fixtures to add even more flexibility to the Raptor family of workholding products.  First up is the RWP-018SS.  This 5-axis fixture is our first to feature a 0.5" dovetail width.  This allows you to use workpieces up to 12 pounds while utilizing an even narrower dovetail to give you increased access to all sides.

Next is the RWP-019SS (clever naming system, huh?).  This fixture utilizes a narrower base footprint to allow you to pack them tighter on a pallet.  The durable stainless steel construction allows it to hold workpieces up to two pounds on a narrow 0.375" dovetail.  Take a look and let us know what you think.

RWP-018SS Here it is! For those that want the ultimate in strength and wear resistance we now offer the RWP-018SS. This 1/2" dovetail fixture is utilized for milling and turning applications. It offers superior clamping strength while allowing access to five sides of the workpiece. The fixture comes with the four mounting bolts, one Dowel Pin for location and a base plug which you can turn down to the size you need. The standard RWP-018SS is manufactured from 17-4 Stainless Steel Heat Treated to H-1150. View RWP-018SS

RWP-019SS This 3/8" dovetail fixture is utilized for milling applications. It offers superior clamping strength while allowing access to five sides of the workpiece. The Fixture comes with two mounting bolts and two Dowel Pins for location. The standard RWP-019SS is manufactured from 17-4 Stainless Steel Heat Treated to H-1150. View RWP-019SS

Micro Raptor 5-Axis Fixtures Now Available

For years we've sold Raptor 5-axis fixtures for medium size parts.  We've also expanded our products to include Raptor Rails capable of supporting workpieces of up to 150 pounds.  Now we're pleased to announce our Micro Raptors for workpieces weighing up to 0.284 pounds and 1.25 cubic inches.

These small workholding fixures offer the same ease-of-use, strength and convenience as our larger dovetail fixtures allowing you to quickly machine smaller size parts without taking your primary fixtures off the machine.  The fixtures provide rigid clamping while exposing five faces of the workpiece.  Most features can be completed in a single operation and our unique Raptor dovetail spring-loaded clamps require only 0.0469" of material to hold the workpiece.

Micro Raptors come in three different formats for three different mounting options.  All of them are manufactured from 17-4 Heat-Treated Stainless Steel with a 0281" wide dovetail holder.

RWP-008SS This Micro Raptor 5-axis fixture is designed to connect directly to a 54mm System 3R pallet.  Using the 3R pallet reduces downtime by allowing the machine operator to load workpieces on an alternate pallet in seconds. View RWP-008SS

RWP-009SS Designed to connect to your machine using the four standard mounting holes. View RWP-009SS

RWP-010SS A dovetail fixture for dovetail fixtures.  This 5-axis fixture is designed to connect directly to your existing RWP-002 or RWP-002SS fixtures.  This allows you to quickly machine smaller size parts without taking your primary fixtures off the machine. View RWP-010SS
