Octane Workholding is a versatile manufacturing shop specializing in a wide variety of industries, known for their commitment to precision and efficiency.

Octane Workholding faced significant challenges including bottlenecks, inefficiency, and a shortage of qualified labor for programming and machine tending. These issues resulted in increased costs, missed deadlines, and lower production output, hindering the company's ability to meet customer demands and maintain competitive pricing.

“AWR has significantly reduced setup times with its straightforward template-based programming. Anyone can quickly learn to set up the AWR cell, allowing our machinists to focus on more valuable tasks like programming,”

The decision was driven by the RC-1’s intuitive template-based programming, enabling anyone to configure the cell within minutes. The support provided by AWR and the seamless integration with their Okuma LB3000 MYW further affirmed their choice. “Support was available to begin utilizing the RC-1 on day one,” added Pulsifer.
