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.
Roberson Machine Company partners with aerospace and defense manufacturers to deliver CNC-machined parts that meet demanding requirements for geometry, tolerances, and documentation. Components we regularly produce 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
Each aerospace component brings unique demands — whether it’s geometric complexity, specialty materials, or rigorous inspection criteria. Our CNC machining process is designed to deliver on all fronts.
CNC Machining Services for Aerospace Manufacturing
Combining state-of-the-art CNC machining with stringent quality controls, our aerospace manufacturing services deliver precise, repeatable results for critical components — from prototype to production.
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
Our multi-axis lathes manufacture high-precision shafts, bushings, pins, and rotational parts, ensuring tight concentricity and roundness. They handle simple to complex aerospace turning in one pass.
Wire EDM Machining
Wire EDM provides precise, burr-free cuts ideal for complex features, internal shapes, and delicate aerospace alloys. It’s particularly suited for small engine parts, fuel systems, and components requiring tight tolerances.
Prototype Machining
We offer fast prototype machining for aerospace projects during development and test phases, allowing engineers to confirm form, fit, and function before mass production.
Precision CNC Machining
Our commitment to strict process controls ensures dimensional precision, consistent repeatability, and superior surface finishes throughout all services, meeting aerospace industry standards. Every part is thoroughly inspected and documented as requested by customers.
Trust in our expertise for aerospace components that meet stringent safety and performance requirements. We focus on precision machining and thorough quality checks to deliver consistent results.
Aerospace Materials We Machine
The aerospace industry relies on materials that combine strength, lightweight properties, corrosion resistance, and heat tolerance. Roberson Machine Company routinely handles these metals and high-performance alloys, producing precise and clean aerospace components, even with difficult materials.
- 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): Valued for its combination of high strength, low weight, and corrosion resistance, titanium is essential for aerospace fasteners, brackets, and hardware. Our titanium CNC machining capabilities ensure precision manufacturing of critical aerospace parts.
- Stainless Steel (17-4PH, 15-5PH, 303, 316, 321): Renowned for its strength, corrosion resistance, and toughness, stainless steel is common in flight controls, engine parts, and high-stress aerospace assemblies. Learn more about stainless steel grades 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): 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): Lightweight and resistant to chemicals, these materials are perfect for aerospace insulation, seals, electrical components, and specialty hardware. We employ advanced CNC machining capabilities to produce clean, precise parts from these plastics.
