From Prototype to Perfection: How Vyper Industrial Built a Better Shop Stool For Dylan and Dayne Rusch, it was never really a question: they were going to make something special. Growing up, their father, Chris, wasn't just someone who tinkered in a garage. He was a master metal worker, and his company, Rusch Machine & Design, became a real leader in the industry. Seeing his dedication and the success it brought instilled a strong sense of "can-do" in his children. The Rusch brothers saw their father in his garage constantly, and he was always supported by shoddy shop stools. So, their dad did what any good craftsman would do: he decided to make his own. Vyper Industrial was founded in 2020, and they’ve gained a quick reputation for making the best stool that ever was. Their high-quality work is supported by DN Solutions and Ellison Technologies...

How FZE Uses Cobots To Aid in Machining and Manufacturing Some shops still have yet to welcome automation, but FZE Manufacturing Solutions is not one of them. The North Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin shop offers a robust range of machining and manufacturing expertise, and much of the equipment on their floor is automated in some way. All of their multi-axis Swiss machines and several of their turning centers are bar fed and they have a twin-spindle, twin-turret turning center that is equipped with an overhead gantry robot for loading raw parts and unloading finished parts. Additional CNC turning centers are manually loaded and unloaded by Machinists and Operators. Machining centers feature pallet changers to keep spindles in the cut longer, plus auto doors to remind operators to unload/load parts. And when it came time to add cobots to the mix, FZE reached out to Ellison Technologies....

Doosan Cobots: The Buzz from Machine Shops Ellison Technologies has been working with Doosan Robotics since 2019. We choose collaborative robots from Doosan because of their quality, impressive technical specifications, and broad product offering. But rather than focus on specs and details, we’re going to share with you what we’ve heard from the machine shops that have taken the plunge and installed Doosan cobots. “We wish we’d done it sooner.” There’s a misconception that automation and robotics are only for high-volume, high-production manufacturing facilities. Cobots are an easy and cost-effective way for shops to automate rote tasks like machine tending and part inspection. They can be profitable even on much shorter production runs. The barriers to entry for a Doosan cobot are low and the upsides are high. They are inexpensive, easy to program, and ready to work. They do the tedious stuff that human operators don’t want to do or don’t have time to do, allowing them to focus on more important value-added tasks....
