What Materials Can Be Used For Machined Parts For My Milwaukee, WI Company?
Machined parts can be made from a variety of materials, including metals and plastics. But, some materials are easier to machine than others. Exceptionally hard materials are difficult to penetrate with a cutting tool, perhaps causing the tool to shake or vibrate more, thus likely reducing quality. Extremely soft materials, and materials with a low melting point, may deform upon contact with the cutting tool. Several of our most common machined part materials are listed below. As always, we’d be open to discussing the possibility of machining parts with other materials. Just call us at 573-646-3996 or contact us online.
- Metals: Aluminum (6061, 7075, 7050 or “aa7050 alloy”), Stainless Steel (303, 304), Magnesium, Titanium, Zinc, Brass, Bronze, Copper
- Plastics: ABS, PC, <a href="PC-ABS, PP, PS, POM, PMMA, PAGF30, PCGF30, Teflon, DHPE, HDPE, PPS, PEEK

What Are the Benefits of Machined Parts in Milwaukee, WI?
Machined parts from Roberson Machine Company offer certain advantages that might not be possible with injection molded parts or even 3D printed parts in Milwaukee, WI. Some of the pivotal advantages for your Milwaukee, WI company include:
Quality
Machined parts can be cut to a very high quality, based primarily on your Milwaukee, WI company’s specifications and tolerances. This means our CNC machinists can take extra time on tight-tolerance workpieces and individual aspects to ensure the best quality.
Lead Times
Machined parts can be manufactured faster than parts made via other manufacturing production like Milwaukee, WI molding. This is mostly because of to the lack of labor-intensive tooling, therefore having the ability to rely more on the CAD and CAM software our machinists input into the CNC machines. But the manufacturing process itself is also highly efficient – some of our CNC machines have rapid rates of up to 45 yards per minute, although we don’t machine parts at those speeds. The one-step nature of machining and the speed and accuracy of our CNC machines combine to make machined parts some of the fastest to manufacture, diminishing lead times for shorter time-to-market and practical rapid prototyping.
Design Freedom
Machined parts can have a wide range of shapes and sizes. This is due to the fact that CNC machines aren’t subject to the same limitations of molding, like tapering and thin walls. Machined parts can be thick and robust, yet their features can be fine and detailed. Although machined parts have some limitations when it comes to, for example, internal sections and deep channels, machining still represents the most geometrically flexible production procedure for your Milwaukee, WI production run.
Alterations
Because CNC machined parts are made from digital CAD files, it is possible to make changes throughout the machining process, up until the last minute. This is extremely favorable during prototyping and our research and experimental development stages, when our engineers or your team might want to make fractional changes or refinements to the machined part or develop numerous versions. It also reduces the probability of waste, as erroneous parts are far less likely to come off the machines.
Strength
Machined parts are cut from solid pieces of material known as blanks, which have normally been extruded or cast. This makes them foundationally strong in comparison to, for example, 3D printed pieces, which can be much flimsier along one axis, where one layer is added atop the next.
Surface Finish
Machined parts completely circumvent the surface quality issues associated with molding such as flow lines, jetting, and flash at the parting line. With a moderate amount of post-processing, which is achieved in our value-added services, machined parts can be brought to a high level regarding surface finish. Machining also gives a better surface finish to 3D printing, even before any secondary service has been completed by our machinists. 3D printing leaves visible layer lines on the surface of the part, which must be smoothed over through sanding or chemical treatment. Machined parts do not have these layer lines.
No Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)
Machined parts are cost-effective and available in small quantities or even one-off parts because they are cut directly from a blank workpiece. For molded parts, it is necessary to fabricate metal tooling – a procedure that seems endless and can be costly. But machining with Roberson Machine Company is unique in providing high-quality parts with no MOQ, making it convenient for smaller businesses in Milwaukee, WI, small production runs, and prototyping.

What CNC Machinery is Necessary to Make Machined Parts For My Company in Milwaukee, WI?
The Roberson Machine Company facilities are fully stocked with top-of-the-line CNC machinery capable of manufacturing accurately machined parts in a fraction of the time as our competitors. Our full range of equipment includes:
- CNC Horizontal Mills
- CNC Vertical Mills
- CNC Horizontal Lathes
All mills use rotary cutting in the subtractive manufacturing process of removing materials from a workpiece, but our CNC mills combine the cutting procedure with advanced computer control to allow for accurate and rapid production. Our horizontal CNC mills quickly and accurately cut your component material to the tightest of tolerances. Our CNC horizontal milling services revolve around state-of-the-art 3 axis, 4 axis, and 5 axis machines.
Vertical CNC mills feature spindles that are perpendicular to the ground, making them optimal for projects calling for large production runs of moderately complex parts. While horizontal mills are more beneficial in difficult milling projects, vertical mills are capable of an array of designs for your company’s work plan in Milwaukee, WI.
As opposed to mills, which bank on rotation of the cutting tool, lathes instead rotate the workpiece as material is removed. In comparison to manual lathes, which need a degree of expertise to operate, CNC lathes drastically reduce the amount of labor and the probability of human error. These advantages translate into decreases in cost and error rates for you in Milwaukee, WI.
