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
Precision aerospace machining calls for more than just equipment — it requires experience with high-performance materials, complex geometry, and detailed quality checks. Roberson delivers across the board.
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
We produce high-precision shafts, bushings, pins, and rotational components with tight concentricity and roundness. Our multi-axis lathes allow for both simple and complex aerospace turning operations in a single pass.
Wire EDM Machining
For intricate features, internal geometries, and heat-sensitive aerospace alloys, Wire EDM provides burr-free, high-precision cutting, particularly useful for fuel systems, small engine parts, and fine-tolerance components.
Prototype Machining
Our rapid-turn prototype machining services assist aerospace clients through development, qualification, and testing stages, enabling engineers to assess form, fit, and function early.
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.
With our partnership, expect aerospace parts crafted with care, accuracy, and compliance. We uphold strict quality controls to guarantee your project’s seamless progression.
Aerospace Materials We Machine
Advanced materials balancing strength, corrosion resistance, weight, and heat tolerance are essential in aerospace parts. Roberson Machine Company works extensively with these metals and alloys, providing accurate, clean machining on even the most challenging aerospace substrates.
- 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): This strong, corrosion-resistant, and lightweight metal is widely used in aerospace for fasteners, brackets, and hardware where strength-to-weight balance is critical. We utilize advanced titanium CNC machining to achieve tight tolerances on aerospace components.
- Stainless Steel (17-4PH, 15-5PH, 303, 316, 321): This strong and corrosion-resistant material is essential for aerospace flight controls, engine hardware, and structural assemblies. Additional details on grades of stainless steel are available here.
- Nickel Alloys & Superalloys (Inconel, Hastelloy, Monel): Ideal for high-heat, high-stress aerospace applications such as turbine and exhaust components, these superalloys require expert machining. We utilize our CNC machining services to achieve stable processes and superior finishes.
- Tool Steels & Hardened Alloys (D2, A2, H13): We use EDM and CNC machining to manufacture tooling, molds, and wear parts essential for aerospace manufacturing. Our wire EDM machining ensures burr-free precision on complex hardened materials. Learn more about D2, A2, and H13 steels.
- High-Performance Plastics (PEEK, Ultem, PTFE): Known for their chemical resistance and lightweight properties, these plastics are ideal for insulation, seals, electrical parts, and specialty aerospace hardware. We utilize precise CNC machining capabilities to achieve consistent finishes on advanced aerospace plastics.
