Types of Custom Material Handling Solutions

September 17, 2010

There are many types of businesses in various industries that need to store materials in bulk. These products are typically difficult to keep organized and properly stored in warehouses and other facilities. Choosing the proper storage solution means the difference between high and low productivity, as well as safety versus dangerous working conditions. Custom material handling solutions are the best solution for companies that need special warehouse equipment for moving and storing items on site.

Material handling can be a dangerous job, depending on the size and weight of the product(s). Lifts, jacks, and platforms can help make moving materials a little easier; However, if the right equipment is not used, an extremely hazardous condition may occur, creating dangerous conditions for employees and the company as a whole. Use of custom material handling solutions is the most effective way to avoid these scenarios. Proper material handling equipment also makes any process safer, minimizing the chance of a lawsuit.

Material management is the branch of a company that deals with planning, organizing, and controlling the flow of products in a facility or warehouse. These are the people who are handling the materials on a regular basis, so they have the best insight into the necessary custom material handling solutions for their particular space(s). When it is time for a company to invest in material handling units or other equipment, they should consult the material management team.

Material handling equipment can be expensive, so business owners may try to save money by ordering the least expensive equipment they can find; However, this could lead to unhidden counter-productive results which hurts the bottom line dollar in the long run. Proper task-specific material handing solutions are the best way to ensure that products are stored properly and transported safely. High quality material handling products are a great investment because they typically last longer and perform better for the task(s) they are designed for.

One of the best companies for custom material handling solutions is RDM Industrial Products. They provide top of the line solutions for storage and moving materials. Their problem solving capabilities and can-do attitude are the basis for creating successful solutions for the material handling wants or needs of many businesses.

The Benefits of Custom Workbench Table Designs

August 20, 2010

Whether a work bench is used for personal or professional use, it is an important component to any project. The right work bench can make a project run more smoothly and efficiently. Benches that are too small or do not have enough storage can be limiting and burdensome. Industrial furniture solutions for a particular space or purpose may be hard to find because people need benches for many different reasons. As a solution to this problem, RDM is an industrial products company that offers custom workbench table designs.

Instilling the can-do mentality in customers is part of the RDM experience that is infectious. This is what makes RDM unlike any other industrial furniture supplier.

Top Quality Products Endure a Long Lifetime of Heavy Use!

July 19, 2010

RDM Industrial work benches are a perfect solution to increase your productivity.  With workstation accessories designed to meet your specific job requirements, you will be able to perform in a more proficient manner. By utilizing minimal workspace and maximizing your storage abilities on the perimeter of the workstation, these incredible work tables enable you to find and access your tools and/or hardware very quickly. Here are a few things you should look for when purchasing an industrial work bench.

Quality plays a vital role and should be given paramount importance when buying industrial work benches. William A. Foster, rightly says, “Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.”

After only one or two years from initial purchase, a poor quality work bench starts showing its effects:

·        Work surfaces begin to crack and lose their edging.  RDM only utilizes top-quality materials for their tops and edging.  Our standard t-molded edge incorporates a mechanical barb that is inserted into the edge of the table top.  Lower quality tables utilize glue-on edging solutions, which can fail after several weeks of industrial use.

·        Inexpensive work benches tend to move constantly while working, due to their lighter framework and non-welded connections.  RDM utilizes fully-welded connections for all non-adjustable framework.

·        Lighter frames equal less stability equals higher safety concerns. One accident can easily absorb any savings that are made during initial purchase of less quality tables.

·        Inexpensive, lower quality work benches utilize bolt-together modular components, which can loosen over time and lead to product damage or personnel injury.  RDM takes the time to produce larger table frames that are fully welded and better suited for industrial applications.

In summary, a low quality work bench not only makes work difficult but it could also be downright dangerous. Why use inferior work benches that are not sturdy enough to support your product(s) ? Why invest in low quality work benches could cost you a good deal more in lost time and efficiency ?

With the aim to provide Top Quality Products, RDM Industrial Products Inc. has attained success worldwide. The company offers durable industrial work benches that can handle many industrial applications effectively. With RDM, you can select from a wide variety of work bench styles that are available in different sizes, colors and designs to meet your specific needs.  They also offer custom design solutions …..

What to Consider When You Order Industrial Workbenches

June 1, 2010

Whether you’re sourcing for a small facility for your startup business or planning a major expansion at a factory, industrial workbenches and other furniture could form the “backbone” of your facility layout. If they are to break down or get in the way of efficient operations you would face safety, timing and productivity hurdles that might force you to rearrange the entire facility. At RDM, we can help you find the right industrial furniture solutions or you can take stock of your own needs. Here’s what you should consider:

Safety: Safety comes first – naturally! Get acquainted with all laws, ordinances and regulations related to your industry and any materials or equipment you plan on working with, even if it’s a minor part of your business. Review fire code and city zoning. Many people plan their shops without thinking of proper fire exist access, for example, or assume they’ll be allowed to renovate for their shop even though it’s against local codes. All of these affect where you can place workstations and industrial furniture.

Budget: Set a loose budget for furnishings, but be prepared to change it to accommodate your real needs – don’t skimp on industrial workbenches, chairs, flow racks and so on. Cutting corners can greatly add expense to everything you do in the form of slower production, delays and even accidents. Nevertheless, let us know your budget range and needs, and we’ll do our best to provide you with solution(s) to accommodate them.

People: How many workers do you plan on having on site at one time? Do workers have dedicated individual stations or are they “hot desking?” The answers will affect how much space you need for each workstation. Don’t forget that for maximum productivity you need these to be comfortable areas, so invest in ergonomic chairs and accessories.

Space: How much room do you have once you take fire codes and other necessary clearance into account? Taking accurate measurements of the area to be furnished, including height, is one of the basic constructive steps you can take to make furnishing your shop easier.

Weight, shipping systems, ventilation – these are all additional factors that will influence your choice of industrial furniture. Some of these choices reflect universal workplace needs, while others are the special concerns of particular industries. Educate yourself and contact RDM to see how we can give your facility the “Backbone” it needs to succeed.

Do Your Industrial Workbenches Need ESD?

February 15, 2010

ESD, or Electrostatic Discharge, can be a serious problem in several industries. Static electricity is a hazard to both people and electronics, and any working environment where it might be a hazard needs to look into ESD control for their industrial workbenches, lab tables and other equipment.

The most obvious industry to consider for ESD protection is electronics. As a long time business operating near Silicon Valley, RDM has extensive experience meeting the needs of electronics shipping, manufacturing and repair facilities. On the other hand, it’s a mistake to think that electronics is the only industry that needs to worry about ESD. If you work around volatile or flammable materials, an electrostatic discharge can be extremely dangerous, to the point of starting fires, explosions and other catastrophic reactions. Even something as simple as sawdust can be ignited by a strong discharge.

ESD control is especially necessary in busy work areas. Working at a slow pace, a worker can take some simple manual precautions to avoid static build up by wearing a strap or occasionally touching a grounded object, but once the work pace increases it’s easy to forget these basic precautions. This is not so say that workers should ignore personal precautions, but they should have industrial furniture that also ensures both their safety and the integrity of anything they’re working on.

RDM offers a complete selection of ESD solutions, including:

  • Floor Grounding
  • Ionization Control
  • ESD Packaging
  • Personnel Grounding
  • Storage Solutions
  • Educational Materials
  • Test Equipment
  • Work Surface Solutions

When it comes to industrial workbenches in particular, we have static control tables to suit virtually any function. We apply ESD control modifications to most standard workbench models, so that almost any workbench can serve as an ESD bench. Contact RDM to find out more.

Stainless Steel Tables for Industrial and Laboratory Furniture

February 8, 2010

For almost everyone, stainless steel is typically an attractive finish because of its shiny, vibrant appearance. When used for furniture, it looks great, but very pricey. Professionals need more compelling reasons to purchase and use stainless steel lab tables or industrial workbenches. If you are planning to put together a professional workspace for fabrication or research, you need to know these reasons so that you can make the best decisions for your organization.

Stainless steel gets its name from its resistance to corrosion and staining. This is a result of a thin layer of chromium oxide that is applied to the metals surface. This is where rust from carbon steel usually invites corrosion. The chromium oxide prevents this process and protects the steel. As a bonus, stainless steel surfaces also inherit antibacterial properties, making it ideal for tasks that involve food or biological materials. Stainless steel’s protective chromium layer also reforms quickly, maintaining its properties in the face of occasional scratches.

Stainless steel’s protective properties are not compromised by oxygen or water. Stainless steel can be immersed in water or exposed to an oxygen-rich environment without worry. Stainless steel is strong, too – many grades are suitable for heavy construction. This makes stainless steel a suitable material for lift tables and other industrial workbenches designed to carry heavy loads.

Finally, stainless steel is an excellent choice for companies that adhere to environmentally responsible policies for one simple reason: It’s 100% recyclable. If you outgrow a piece of stainless steel furniture it never needs to head to a landfill.

Nevertheless, stainless steel is not an ideal material in every situation. While stainless steel’s chromium oxide surface can repel water and air, it’s still vulnerable to acids. Furthermore, despite what the name might tell you, stainless steel is only stain resistant. Eventually, industrial dyes and similar compounds can leave their mark on a stainless surface if exposed for a long length of time.

Stainless steel’s protective outer layer will recover from occasional scratches, but not repeated metal to metal wear. Stainless steel is not recommended if you plan to use it as a work surface that will be subject to repeated heavy contact with other metals unless they are relatively softer in property, like aluminum or brass.

Metal to metal wear is also a concern if you need nuts, bolts and screws to connect adjustable elements of a stainless steel lab table or industrial workbench. If you replace any of these items on stainless steel furniture you must opt for a different metal, because stainless steel connectors and surfaces tend to fuse over time. This happens because friction removes the protective layer on both parts, and when it re-establishes itself, the layer forms evenly over the adjacent stainless steel objects.

Ultimately, choosing stainless steel should start with you consulting appropriate workplace regulations and guidelines. After that, think about your needs while keeping stainless steel’s material properties in mind. At RDM Industrial Products we can not only advise you about how to best use stainless steel furniture in your shop or lab, but can produce custom stainless steel lab tables and industrial furniture to meet your exact needs. Contact RDM to find out more.

Custom Industrial Furniture

December 1, 2009

At RDM we specialize in custom industrial workbenches and other industrial furniture solutions for one simple reason: To Save You Time & Money.  If you don’t find the perfect solution for your facility and settle for an alternative, convenient solution, your safety, efficiency and bottom line will all suffer.

For ALL industries, beyond the usual safety and handling guidelines, there are always special needs for specific workshops, laboratories, assembly lines or other professional facility. Here are some of the considerations most people take into account when they order custom industrial furniture:

Appearance: It may seem strange that appearance is a top concern for functional furnishings but every workplace has a clientele to impress. For example, we’ve supplied furnishings for classrooms, where an attractive environment for presentations is essential. Also, many companies require educational & demonstration facilities to share what they do with staff from other departments or the general public. Appearance is also important for morale and internal branding.

Ergonomics: Ergonomics isn’t just about comfort. It improves efficiency and safety by putting important tools within easy reach.  At RDM we can help to provide you with the correct ergonomic furniture configurations that will contribute to performance by efficiently organizing your layout to eliminate any disruptions that could interrupt your overall workflow.

Mobility: Some industrial workstations must be moved on a regular basis. At RDM, we provide top quality mobile tables and carts with industrial duty caster (wheel) options that provide the best stability and strength.  Mobile tables / carts may also need to be locked in place after being moved.  One way we tackle this problem is with floor leveling jacks, which provide a fixed, stable foundation by lifting the wheels off of the ground, leaving the table or cart to rest on fixed levelers or pads.

IT (Information Technology): Computers are essential to modern laboratories and industrial shops. Computer towers, monitors and keyboards need to be stored where they’ll be easy to reach, but won’t interfere with critical activities.  At RDM we are continually designing and developing new Computer Workstation solutions to accommodate these needs. We know the challenges our end users face, such as the need for easy to hook for wired workstations, cabling and routers.

Work Surfaces: Your choice of work surface depends upon your specific application / use. In the case of corrosives, we offer a variety of chemical-resistant work surfaces that range from laminated wood to solid surfaces, ranging in price to fit your budget. For electrically sensitive components we offer static control work surfaces. For general workstations, we offer plastic laminated tops that are durable, easy to clean, attractive and support a wide range of jobs.

RDM’s custom industrial and lab furniture solutions can accommodate the exact mix of specifications you need. Our standard models are there to help you make quick, easy decisions.  They provide a starting point, and are not a restriction to the solutions available to you. Contact us to tell us exactly what you need and we will build it to your specifications.
