Utilizing CNC (Computer Numerical Control), our savvy machinists operate our production machines by programming tool paths based on the geometry of the final material. The final part 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 project near Raleigh, NC.

    Our CNC machines can cut nearly any metal alloy, rigid plastic, wood, glass, foam, and other composite materials with high accuracy, precision, and repeatability — easily cranking out thousands of components that are indistinguishable — making CNC production machining and milling parts appropriate for the following industries near Raleigh, NC:

    Raleigh, NC Production Machining and Milling: What is Milling?

    Milling is the most common type of CNC machining in Raleigh, NC. It is a versatile production machining process that can perform many different kinds of cuts on a part. In the production machining and milling process, a CNC milling machine uses a rotating cylindrical cutter to proceed along various axes and develop holes, slots, and details in material to turn it into a mechanical vehicle, part, or other finished product. The CNC milling machines used in our Raleigh, NC production machining and milling procedure operate on multi axis range of motion, in addition to right angle capabilities, to help you get rapidly processed parts, designs, and products out the door. Call us with any questions about the Raleigh, NC CNC milling process at 573-646-3996 or contact us online.

    The CNC milling machines we use in our complex near Raleigh, NC are:

    • 2 axis machines for Raleigh, NC 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 Raleigh, NC production machining and milling add the y-axis. This is our most popular milling machine. It cuts vertically and in multiple directions, but a circular or spherical object will need to be done one half at a time because it’s impossible to cut from below.
    • 4 axis machines for Raleigh, NC production machining and milling add the ability to spin the x-axis, much like our lathes.
    • 5 axis machines near Raleigh, NC for production machining and milling add the ability to rotate both the x- and y-axes. This is our most versatile milling machine, allowing us to shape virtually anything.

    Alongside our production machining and milling services, Roberson Machine Company offers our Raleigh, NC customers the following:

    Raleigh, NC Production Machining and Milling: What Are CNC Milling Machines Used For?

    CNC milling machines are especially useful in three specific production machining and milling scenarios near Raleigh, NC:

    1. Drilled Holes

      Drilling creates a hole and tapping adds threads. Drilling focuses on both the diameter and depth of the hole, measurements that are beneficial further along in the production machining and milling run. Through and tapped holes are the most popular way to assemble parts.

    2. Bored Holes

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

    3. Flat Surfaces

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

    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 about a fourth of the width of a human hair.
