Utilizing CNC (Computer Numerical Control), our skilled machinists operate our production machines by programming tool paths based on the geometry of the final work piece. The final work piece is based on a

  • Cartesian coordinate design from a CAD (Computer Aided Design) model. A CNC machine runs on this set of CAD and CAM programmed code. The CAD software designs the models and assemblies that the CAM software translates into G-code that drive the CNC machine’s tools to turn those designs into physical parts.

    Employing CNC for our production machining and milling allows Roberson Machine Company to ensure that our abilities are customizable and changeable predicated on the work plan near Indianapolis, IN.

    Our CNC machines can cut almost any foam, glass, wood, rigid plastic, metal alloy, and other composite materials with high precision, accuracy, and repeatability — easily turning out thousands of components that are identical — making CNC production machining and milling parts suitable for the following industries near Indianapolis, IN:

    Indianapolis, IN Production Machining and Milling: What is Milling?

    Milling is the most common type of CNC machining in Indianapolis, IN. It is an adaptable production machining procedure that can perform many different types of cuts on a workpiece. In the production machining and milling process, a CNC milling machine uses a spinning cylindrical cutter to proceed along various axes and create slots, holes, and details in material to turn it into a mechanical vehicle, part, or other finished product. The CNC milling machines utilized in our Indianapolis, IN production machining and milling process operate on multi axis range of motion, as well as right angle capabilities, to assist you in getting rapidly created parts, designs, and products out the door. Call us with any questions about the Indianapolis, IN CNC milling process at 573-646-3996 or reach out to us online.

    The CNC milling machines we use in our complex near Indianapolis, IN are:

    • 2 axis machines for Indianapolis, IN production machining and milling can cut slots and holes in the x- and z-axes (horizontal and vertical) and only in one direction.
    • 3 axis machines for Indianapolis, IN production machining and milling add the y-axis. This is our most popular milling machine. It cuts vertically and in multiple directions, yet a circular or spherical object will need to be done one half at a time because it’s not possible to cut from below.
    • 4 axis machines for Indianapolis, IN production machining and milling add the ability to spin the x-axis, similar to our lathes.
    • 5 axis machines near Indianapolis, IN for production machining and milling add the ability to rotate both the x- and y-axes. This is our most complete milling machine, allowing us to shape virtually anything.

    In addition to our production machining and milling services, Roberson Machine Company offers our Indianapolis, IN customers the following:

    Indianapolis, IN Production Machining and Milling: What Are CNC Milling Machines Used For?

    CNC milling machines are particularly handy in three specific production machining and milling situations near Indianapolis, IN:

    1. Drilled Holes

      Tapping adds threads, but drilling creates a hole. Drilling concentrates on both the diameter and depth of the hole, measurements that are beneficial further on in the production machining and milling run. Through and tapped holes are the most popular method to assemble parts.

    2. Bored Holes

      Boring allows parts to be assembled properly and tightly, achieving precisely tight tolerances for diameter. Enlarging an existing hole using a drill and boring bar with a cutting tool forms a precise inner cavity within a workpiece, also useful further along in the production run.

    3. Flat Surfaces

      CNC milling puts flat surfaces on a workpiece, creating a finished sealing surface so flat that possible leak issues are almost eradicated.

    The Roberson Machine Company CNC milling machines, just like our other CNC machines, operate on tight tolerances. For longer production machining and milling runs, we adjust most of our CNC machines on a 0.005” tolerance or rely on swapping the machine if we run a tighter tolerance. On shorter runs, our CNC machines can cut as precise as 0.001,” or nearly a fourth of the width of a human hair.
