The Definitive Guide to 5 Axis CNC Machining for Aerospace

Posted by Brad Roberson in 5 axis CNC machining and Aerospace Machining on Jul 29, 2024.


As the need for more complex, high-performance parts in the aerospace industry continues to grow, the need for advanced manufacturing techniques and solutions becomes more and more critical. Look no further than 5-axis CNC machining at Roberson Machine Company.

Having the ability to use a machine that can move a cutting tool or part along five different axes simultaneously, our 5-axis CNC machine experts manufacture your parts with precision and efficiency. The axes typically include the X, Y, and Z linear axes, and two additional rotational axes (A and B), allowing us to produce intricate and complex part geometries.

Call the Roberson Machine Company pros at 573-646-3996 or contact us online to get a quote on your next parts project. Here, we’ll explore the vital role of 5-axis CNC machining in aerospace, its benefits, and how it’s a game-changer in the production of high-precision parts.

Our specialists have over 20 years of experience with our 5-axis CNC machining capabilities. We utilize advanced CAD and CAM software to streamline and optimize our processes. Our use of up-to-date technological advancements contributes to our consistently high standards, wide range of part solutions, and flexible service delivery.

No matter if your company is looking for aerospace structural components, engine parts such as housings, impellers, or rotors, structural components like wing spars or fuselage frames, avionics housings, turbine blades, or even landing gear components, 5-axis CNC machining at Roberson Machine Company provides the necessary precision to meet stringent aerospace standards.

The Benefits of 5 Axis CNC Machining for Your Aerospace Parts at Roberson Machine Company

Our 5-axis CNC machining provides your company with infinite possibilities to the part sizes and shapes you need. Some of the other advantages to choosing us for your all of your parts needs are:

  • Reduced Setup Time:
    Traditional 3-axis machining could require multiple setups to achieve complex geometries. In contrast, our 5-axis CNC machining can complete parts in a single setup, no matter the complexity, reducing production time of your parts and increasing efficiency.
  • Boosted Precision and Accuracy:
    Your aerospace components may feature intricate geometries and tight tolerances. 5-axis CNC machining allows for precise cutting from multiple angles, ensuring each part meets exact specifications.
  • Improved Surface Finish
    The ability to machine your parts from various angles reduces the need for manual finishing, resulting in smoother surfaces and higher-quality finishes, crucial for aerodynamic and performance-critical components.
  • Complex Geometry Capability
    Our 5-axis machines can handle complex shapes and features, like undercuts, that are difficult or otherwise impossible to achieve with traditional machines. This capability is a huge advantage for manufacturing your aerospace parts quickly and efficiently.
  • Increased Tool Life:
    Shorter tool paths and optimal tool orientation reduce wear and tear, extending our shop’s tool life and reducing manufacturing costs. Again, we are able to pass these savings along to you.
