Something spooky is happening in the workshop…

Even our V510X vice has got into the Halloween spirit!

This Halloween, we’re putting our workholding to the test with a slightly different kind of workpiece. The 5th Axis V510X is keeping a firm grip on this one!

From all of us at Grip-Tec, we wish you a happy Halloween. Stay safe, and try not to let anything too spooky into your workshop!

WALLS GOING UP! 🛠️🏢

Another update from behind the scenes of our office move!

Things are starting to take shape as the team gets stuck into building the new internal walls for the stores as well as the walls for our office spaces! unfortunately we couldn't record the office walls being built but you'll soon see what it looks like when we show you the ceiling being built!

It’s all coming together one step at a time, and we can’t wait to show you more as the transformation continues!

Last week, on Thursday 15th October, our Director, Jason Short, had the pleasure of visiting the Romi UK showroom in Rugby Warwickshire, where he was welcomed and shown around by James Hayes.

Romi UK are currently preparing for their upcoming Open House event on 10th and 11th November, running from 10am to 5pm each day.

Visitors will have the chance to experience live machining and moulding demonstrations, explore the capabilities of ROMI’s machines, and meet the engineering experts behind the brand.

There will also be a dedicated area showcasing our innovative 5th Axis workholding range, the perfect partner for ROMI’s machines!

It’s a fantastic opportunity to see these technologies in action, and one we’re sure you won’t want to miss!

It’s a fantastic chance to see what Romi has to offer, explore their showroom and discover their latest machining solutions. We’re sure it’ll be well worth the visit!

Thank you to James and the team at Romi UK for the warm welcome.

ANOTHER MOVING DAY!

The move continues here at Grip-Tec!

We’ve loved sharing our office move with you, and there’s plenty more to come!

If you’ve already visited us at our new office, you’ll know it looks a little different to what you’re seeing here! We wanted to wait until we were fully moved in and settled before sharing the journey with you, so you can see the whole process from start to finish.

The good news? You won’t have to wait long for the next update!

Keep an eye out as we continue sharing more behind-the-scenes moments from our move!

Who knew moving office's had so many trips!

THE OFFICE MOVE CONTINUES!

We’ve moved the stock, neatly stacked and well packed but now comes the fun part finding somewhere to put it all!

A little behind-the-scenes look at the team getting stuck in and building the new racking at our new home.

Turns out moving offices isn’t just about boxes and wondering where you put the tape… sometimes you have to get the toolbox out and build the whole thing yourself!

Slowly but surely, the new Grip-Tec home is coming together and we can’t wait to show you the finished result. We know some of you have already seen the office and how its looking but there's plenty of behind the scenes, starting as an empty shell we have made it our own and made it our home.

Chose a job you love, and you'll never work a day in your life.

A huge thank you also to those who helped, we'd still be building those racks if it wasn't for the extra hands!

📦 PACK THE STORES WITH US! 📦

Another little behind-the-scenes look at our big move!

This time, we’re packing up the stores and getting all our stock ready to make the journey over to our new office!

There’s a lot more to moving than simply packing a few boxes especially when you’ve got plenty of stock to organise, move and make sure arrives safely!

The new place is starting to take shape, and we can’t wait to show you more as we get everything moved in and set up.

Please note, we have already moved, these videos were taken whilst the move was happening. We are now settled and operating as normal whilst this content comes out.

SOMETIMES, IT’S THE SMALL DETAILS THAT MAKE THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE.

In CNC machining, there’s a lot of focus on the big things.

The machine.
The tooling.
The material.
The cutting strategy.

But what about what’s actually holding the part?

Good workholding can often be overlooked until you have a setup that just works.

A solid, repeatable setup gives you confidence that your parts are where they need to be, when they need to be there.

And when you’re running multiple parts, multiple operations or multiple jobs, that consistency matters.

At Grip-Tec, we’re all about finding practical workholding solutions that make machining simpler, more flexible and more productive.

Sometimes the smallest part of the setup deserves a little more attention.
