How We Work - 3 Quick Steps to Automation
Discovery Call
Start with a quick 30-minute call to discuss your business and learn where you can automate to free up human capital.
We'll help you identify repetitive tasks that are boring for humans (and cause a lot of turnover), but which a robot is happy to perform 24/7.
Site Visit
We visit your facility to verify tasks for automation. You receive our proposal within days, complete with workcell renders, cycle time and throughput calculations showing end-to-end ROI.
Your approval starts the clock for a purpose-built RMO to be delivered in just weeks.
Delivery + Deployment
We handle deployment start to finish, getting in and out of your facility in 4-6 hours. Your staff can be trained on our tablet-based app for operation in under a day.
Plus you get 24/7 remote support and support engineers onsite within 1-2 hours.
7+ Manufacturing Tasks to Automate Today (for a fraction of what you expect)
Machine Tending
Free up human operators from loading and unloading of materials from CNC machines, presses, pad printers, injection molds, 3D printers, and more.
Pick and Place
Eliminate repetitive, boring human tasks utilizing a 6-axis robotic arm with a variety of grippers, powered by AI and cameras.
Gluing and Labeling
Deliver evenly distributed adhesive and accurately placed labels with consistent quality, allowing human workers to take on other tasks.
Parts Assembly
Rapidly assemble several components into your final product while protecting human employees from repetitive stress injuries.
Part Decoration
Accurately apply artwork to customer parts by automating pad printing or hot stamping machine operation with ease.
Component Cleaning
Utilize a de-ionized air knife to effectively clean components, removing debris to enable the next step in the manufacturing process.
Parts Inspection
Achieve high accuracy quality testing and inspection with careful handling and visual inspections using 3D depth-sending cameras.
And More...
Automate a variety of other tasks including laser etching/marking, heat staking, weighing and packaging, and many more.
Automation Built for Small to Medium Sized Manufacturers
Our cobots can be trained on multiple tasks and easily moved between jobs without retraining. Plus, Rapid's tablet-based app makes the RMO simple to operate, no programming or robotics expertise required.
