What Materials Can Be Used For Machined Parts For My Tampa, FL Company?
Machined parts can be made from a variety of materials, including metals and plastics. But, some materials are easier to machine than others. Extremely hard materials are especially difficult to penetrate with a cutting tool, perhaps causing the tool to vibrate more, thus possibly reducing quality. Extremely soft materials, and materials with a low melting point, may warp once coming into contact with the cutting tool. Some 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 connect with 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 Advantages of Machined Parts in Tampa, FL?
Machined parts from Roberson Machine Company provide particular benefits that may not be possible with injection molded parts or even 3D printed parts in Tampa, FL. Some of the key advantages in Tampa, FL are:
Quality
Machined parts can be made to an exceptionally high caliber, based primarily on your Tampa, FL company’s specifications and tolerances. This means our CNC machinists can take extra time on tight-tolerance workpieces and individual features to guarantee the finest quality.
Lead Times
Machined parts can be manufactured quicker than parts made via other production production like Tampa, FL molding. This is mainly due to the lack of labor-intensive tooling, being able to rely more on the CAD and CAM software our machinists use with the CNC machines. But the manufacturing process itself is also highly efficient – some of our CNC machines have rapid rates of nearly 45 yards per minute, even though we do not machine parts at those speeds. The one-step nature of machining and the speed of our CNC machines combine to make machined parts some of the fastest to fabricate, diminishing lead times for shorter time-to-market and practical rapid prototyping.
Design Freedom
Machined parts can have a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This is because CNC machines aren’t subjected 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 complex. Despite machined parts having some restrictions when it comes to, for example, deep channels and internal sections, machining still represents the most geometrically flexible production procedure for your Tampa, FL production run.
Alterations
Because CNC machined parts are manufactured from digital CAD files, it is possible to make alterations throughout the machining procedure, up until the last minute. This is extremely favorable throughout our research and experimental development and prototyping stages, when your staff or our engineers may need to make slight, fractional adjustments or refinements to the machined part or develop multiple versions. It also reduces the possibility of waste, as defective parts are far less likely to be produced.
Strength
Machined parts are cut from solid pieces of material known as blanks, which have usually been cast or extruded. This makes them foundationally strong in comparison to, say, for example, 3D printed pieces, which can be much weaker along one axis, where one layer is added on top of the next.
Surface Finish
Machined parts entirely circumvent the surface quality issues associated with molding such as flow lines, jetting, and flash at the parting line. With a small amount of post-processing, which is achieved in our value-added services, machined parts can be brought to a high standard regarding surface finish. Machining also provides a far superior surface finish to 3D printing, even before any secondary service has been completed by our machinists. 3D printing can leave visible layer lines on the surface of the part, which then must be smoothed over via chemical treatment or sanding. Machined parts do not produce 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. It is a requirement when molding parts that you fabricate metal tooling – a procedure that seems endless and can be costly. But machining with Roberson Machine Company is unique in offering top-quality parts with no MOQ, making it suitable for smaller businesses in Tampa, FL, small production runs, and prototyping.

What CNC Machinery is Necessary to Make Machined Parts For My Company in Tampa, FL?
The Roberson Machine Company facility is fully stocked with high-end 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 the latest computer control to permit rapid and accurate manufacturing. Our horizontal CNC mills accurately and quickly cut your component material to the tightest of tolerances. Our CNC horizontal milling services benefit from the availability of our state-of-the-art 3 axis, 4 axis, and 5 axis machines.
Vertical CNC mills feature spindles that are set at 90 degrees to the floor, making them optimal for projects calling for large production runs of fairly intricate parts. Although horizontal mills are more beneficial in complicated milling projects, vertical mills are adept in an array of designs for your business’s project in Tampa, FL.
In contrast to mills, which rely on rotation of the cutting tool, lathes instead rotate the workpiece as material is cut. Compared to manual lathes, which need a degree of expertise to operate, CNC lathes drastically diminish the amount of labor and the probability of human error. These benefits translate into decreases in cost and defect rates for your Tampa, FL company.
