Precision CNC Manufacturing for Aerospace Applications
Every aerospace component — from brackets to propulsion hardware — must be cut, shaped, and finished to exacting standards the first time.
At Roberson Machine Company, we support aerospace and defense manufacturers with CNC machining capabilities built for complex geometries, tight tolerances, and full process control — from early-stage prototyping to full production runs. Typical aerospace components we machine include:
- Structural brackets and supports, including roller-lift system components
- Avionics enclosures and mounts
- Hydraulic and fuel system housings
- Engine and propulsion system components
- Satellite and space hardware
- Flight control assemblies
From tight tolerances to exotic materials, aerospace components demand precision. Our shop is equipped to meet those challenges head-on, every step of the way.
CNC Machining Services for Aerospace Manufacturing
Our aerospace manufacturing services combine advanced CNC technology with the precision and repeatability required for flight-critical components. We offer a full range of machining capabilities to support everything from prototyping to full-scale production runs.
5-Axis CNC Milling
Equipped with 5-axis milling technology, we machine complex aerospace geometries in a single setup to improve accuracy and shorten cycle times. Ideal for structural components, housings, brackets, and aerodynamic surfaces with compound angles.
Multi-Axis CNC Turning
Precision shafts, bushings, pins, and rotational components with tight concentricity and roundness are produced on our multi-axis lathes, enabling both straightforward and complex aerospace turning in one pass.
Wire EDM Machining
With burr-free precision, Wire EDM excels at cutting intricate details, internal geometries, and heat-sensitive aerospace materials, making it perfect for small engine components, fuel systems, and parts with fine tolerances.
Prototype Machining
Supporting aerospace development and testing phases, our rapid prototype machining helps engineers verify form, fit, and function before full production.
Precision CNC Machining
Throughout all services, we apply strict process controls to maintain dimensional accuracy, repeatability, and surface finishes that meet or exceed aerospace industry standards. Every part is inspected and documented to customer requirements.
When you choose us as your machining partner, you get aerospace parts built for reliability and exacting standards. Our commitment to quality and precision supports your project’s success at every phase.
Aerospace Materials We Machine
Balancing strength, weight, corrosion resistance, and heat tolerance is critical for aerospace components. Roberson Machine Company expertly machines the metals and advanced alloys used in aerospace manufacturing, consistently delivering precise, high-quality results on tough materials.
- Aluminum (6061, 7075, 7050): Valued in aerospace for its lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties, aluminum is used extensively in housings, brackets, and structural assemblies. Our aluminum CNC machining services deliver precise, high-quality parts.
- Titanium (Grades 2, 5 / 6Al-4V): Lightweight, robust, and corrosion-resistant, titanium is commonly used in aerospace for fasteners and structural components demanding an optimal strength-to-weight ratio. Our precise titanium CNC machining processes meet stringent aerospace standards.
- Stainless Steel (17-4PH, 15-5PH, 303, 316, 321): Durable and corrosion-resistant, this metal is widely used in aerospace for engine hardware, flight control parts, and assemblies requiring strength. More on stainless steel grades at this resource.
- Nickel Alloys & Superalloys (Inconel, Hastelloy, Monel): Used in turbine blades, exhaust parts, and propulsion hardware, these alloys are engineered for durability under harsh conditions. Our CNC machining services provide precision and clean finishes on these tough materials.
- Tool Steels & Hardened Alloys (D2, A2, H13): EDM and CNC machining techniques enable us to create tooling, molds, and wear parts for aerospace manufacturing. Our wire EDM machining ensures burr-free, precise cuts on hardened aerospace materials. More on D2, A2, and H13 steels.
- High-Performance Plastics (PEEK, Ultem, PTFE): Used extensively for seals, insulation, electrical parts, and specialty aerospace hardware due to their lightweight and chemical-resistant nature. Our CNC machining capabilities provide consistent, clean machining of these advanced plastics.
