Applying CNC (Computer Numerical Control), our savvy machinists maneuver our production machines by mapping out tool paths based on the geometric schematics 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.

    Using CNC for our production machining and milling allows Roberson Machine Company to ensure that our capacities are personalizable and changeable based on the work plan near Louisville, KY.

    Our CNC machines can cut nearly any metal alloy, rigid plastic, wood, glass, foam, 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 Louisville, KY:

    Louisville, KY Production Machining and Milling: What is Milling?

    Milling is the most familiar type of CNC machining in Louisville, KY. It is an adaptable production machining procedure that can perform various types of cuts on a part. In the production machining and milling process, a CNC milling machine uses a spinning cylindrical cutter to move along various axes and create slots, holes, and details in material to transform it into a mechanical part, vehicle, or other finished product. The CNC milling machines used in our Louisville, KY 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 Louisville, KY CNC milling process at 573-646-3996 or contact us online.

    The CNC milling machines we use in our complex near Louisville, KY are:

    • 2 axis machines for Louisville, KY 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 Louisville, KY production machining and milling add the y-axis. This is our most commonly used milling machine. It cuts vertically and in any direction, but a circular or spherical part will need to be worked on one half at a time because it’s impossible to cut from below.
    • 4 axis machines for Louisville, KY production machining and milling add the ability to spin the x-axis, much like our lathes.
    • 5 axis machines near Louisville, KY for production machining and milling add the capacity to rotate both the x- and y-axes. This is our most versatile milling machine, permitting us to shape virtually anything.

    Alongside our production machining and milling services, Roberson Machine Company supplies our Louisville, KY customers the following:

    Louisville, KY Production Machining and Milling: What Are CNC Milling Machines Used For?

    CNC milling machines are especially useful in three specific production machining and milling situations near Louisville, KY:

    1. Drilled Holes

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

    2. Bored Holes

      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 process. Boring permits parts to be assembled properly and tightly, achieving precisely tight tolerances for diameter.

    3. Flat Surfaces

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

    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 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.
