Utilizing CNC (Computer Numerical Control), our skilled specialists operate our production machines by mapping out tool paths based on the geometric schematics 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.

    Using CNC for our production machining and milling allows Roberson Machine Company to ensure that our abilities are customizable and adaptable predicated on the work plan near Birmingham, AL.

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

    Birmingham, AL Production Machining and Milling: What is Milling?

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

    The CNC milling machines we use in our facilities near Birmingham, AL are:

    • 2 axis machines for Birmingham, AL production machining and milling can cut holes and slots in the x- and z-axes (horizontal and vertical) and only in one direction.
    • 3 axis machines for Birmingham, AL production machining and milling add the y-axis. This is our most commonly used 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 impossible to cut from below.
    • 4 axis machines for Birmingham, AL production machining and milling add the ability to spin the x-axis, much like our lathes.
    • 5 axis machines near Birmingham, AL for production machining and milling add the ability to rotate both the x- and y-axes. This is our most complete milling machine, permitting us to shape virtually anything.

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

    Birmingham, AL Production Machining and Milling: What Are CNC Milling Machines Used For?

    CNC milling machines are particularly handy in three specific production machining and milling scenarios near Birmingham, AL:

    1. Drilled Holes

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

    2. Bored Holes

      Boring allows 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 workpiece, also useful further along in the production process.

    3. Flat Surfaces

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

    The Roberson Machine Company CNC milling machines, much 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 changing 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.
