Precision CNC Manufacturing for Aerospace Applications
There’s no room for error in aerospace. From structural brackets to engine components, each part must be machined with absolute precision from start to finish.
We help aerospace and defense companies machine high-precision parts for critical systems — from prototype to production. Our CNC capabilities are ideal for complex geometries and tight-tolerance components, such as:
- 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
Precision and repeatability define our aerospace manufacturing services, powered by advanced CNC machining. Whether it’s initial prototypes or full production runs, we ensure quality every step of the way.
5-Axis CNC Milling
With our 5-axis milling machines, we can tackle intricate aerospace shapes in one setup, boosting precision and cutting down cycle times. Perfect for structural parts, housings, brackets, and aerodynamic surfaces featuring compound angles.
Multi-Axis CNC Turning
Using multi-axis lathes, we produce shafts, bushings, pins, and rotational components with exceptional concentricity and roundness, supporting both basic and complex aerospace turning in a single operation.
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
During development, qualification, and testing, we provide aerospace customers with quick prototype machining to help engineers validate design form, fit, and function prior to 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.
Partnering with us means you receive aerospace components you can trust for safety and performance. Our dedication to precision machining and rigorous quality assurance helps ensure your project succeeds from start to finish.
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): This corrosion-resistant, lightweight metal is commonly used in housings, brackets, and airframe assemblies. Our aluminum CNC machining capabilities ensure accurate and smooth finishes for aerospace applications.
- Titanium (Grades 2, 5 / 6Al-4V): Strong, lightweight, and highly corrosion-resistant — commonly used for fasteners, structural brackets, and critical aerospace hardware where strength-to-weight ratio matters. Our titanium CNC machining capabilities produce precise parts for demanding aerospace applications.
- 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): Engineered to handle extreme heat and pressure, these materials are used in turbine components, exhaust systems, and propulsion hardware. Our CNC machining services handle nickel alloys with process stability and clean surface finishes.
- Tool Steels & Hardened Alloys (D2, A2, H13): Our EDM and CNC machining capabilities produce tooling, molds, and wear-resistant components used throughout aerospace manufacturing. We provide burr-free, complex cuts on hardened aerospace materials via wire EDM machining. Explore details on D2, A2, and H13.
- High-Performance Plastics (PEEK, Ultem, PTFE): Lightweight and chemical-resistant, used for insulation, electrical components, seals, and specialty aerospace hardware. Our CNC machining capabilities produce consistent, clean results across a range of advanced aerospace plastics.
