All 3 Bindrup owners are not just experienced machinists — in fact all earned their degrees in Business/Production Management from Utah State University. Today, each brother specializes in a specific area of expertise, and their roles all include business management (front office), customer interaction (sales), and machining, which they continue to do on a daily basis.
It isn’t often that a small manufacturing entity specializes in both machining and fabrication, but this is exactly what RPM does. They offer Mill, Lathe, Weld, Saw, Laser Etching and fabrication, all done in house. They can manufacture both metals and high technology plastics, which Shawn says are used by their medical, food processing and electromechanical component customers. RPM also supports customers in the automotive, aerospace, and industrial industries. And while the majority of RPM’s customers are located in Utah, they support customers throughout the Western United States, in CA, AZ, ID, WY, NV and MT, and they even ship products to customers in Ohio and on the East Coast.

Shawn says, “Our machining flexibility allows us to serve a broad base of customers, from those who want low run, high accuracy prototypes to those requesting high run, high tolerance parts. Additionally, we can machine a wide range of sizes, from very small parts, to large diameter hubs & rings, to plates up to 48” x 62”.”
Many of RPM’s customers come to them for specialty plate work. Shawn says, “We’ve developed systems for plate work that allow us to handle large, medium, or small plates by using various restraining and tie-down techniques.”
