Aerospace Parts Fabrication at Its Best
At RPM, we specialize in producing high-precision parts for the aerospace industry using our extensive array of CNC lathes and mills. Our CNC lathe capabilities are bolstered by cutting-edge equipment such as the MORISEIKI NLX-2500/700 Twin Spindle with live tooling and various MAZAK Quick Turn models. These machines allow us to create complex, high-tolerance components essential for aerospace applications.
Our CNC milling capabilities are equally robust, featuring the MAZAK VARIAXIS 500-5XII, a 5-axis pallet machine, and the HAAS VF-8 machining centers. These tools enable us to manufacture intricate parts with unmatched precision, crucial for the demanding requirements of aerospace engineering.
Welding is a critical process in aerospace manufacturing, and at RPM, we offer full certified welding services, including MIG, TIG, GAS, and ARC welding. Our certified welders ensure that each weld meets the stringent standards necessary for aerospace components, providing durability and reliability in even the most demanding environments.
Our TYMA ZETALASE™ laser etching machine adds the finishing touches to aerospace parts, etching consecutive part numbers, serial numbers, logos, and trademarks with precision. This capability is essential for traceability and identification in the aerospace industry, where every component must be accounted for and identifiable.
Ensuring Quality and Compliance
At Reed’s Precision Machine, we understand the critical importance of material traceability in the aerospace sector. Our comprehensive material traceability system tracks every material from its source to the final product. This includes Mill Certification Records (MTRs), ensuring that every part we produce is compliant with industry standards and specifications. This meticulous tracking guarantees that our aerospace customers receive only the highest quality components.
Diverse Material Inventory
Our large inventory of standard-size, common alloy materials allows us to offer shorter lead times and lower costs. We maintain a variety of materials on hand, from metals to high-performance plastics, ensuring we can meet the diverse needs of our aerospace clients. This readiness to provide immediate access to necessary materials is a key advantage for our customers, allowing for swift project turnarounds.
Reed’s Precision Machine excels in fabricating specialized, high-performance parts tailored to the aerospace industry’s unique requirements. We handle both metal and plastic parts, delivering precise tolerance details and customized projects. Our expertise extends to CNC lathe and mill capabilities, ensuring superb precision for 5-axis intricacies, which are often required in aerospace applications.
Our saw shop, equipped with tools like the Bundle Saw AMADA Automatic Feed and DYNASAW 430, allows us to cut materials to exact specifications efficiently. This capability supports our overall fabrication process, ensuring that raw materials are prepared with precision for further machining.
