Precision CNC Machining for Aerospace Teams

Aerospace companies in Austin need parts that are exact, traceable, and documented. A structural bracket that's off by 0.003 inches can create an unsafe condition. We machine aluminum 7075, titanium 6Al-4V, and Inconel 718 to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. Every order ships with CMM inspection reports, material certs, and documentation your quality team can use.

1

Flight-Critical Materials

We source and machine aluminum 7075-T6, titanium 6Al-4V, and Inconel 718 — all with full material certs and heat lot traceability.

2

Tight Tolerances

We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on critical bores and mating surfaces. Every part is CMM verified before shipping.

3

Full Documentation

Dimensional inspection reports, material certs, first article inspection — whatever your AS9100D-aligned quality plan requires.

Yes, RivCut is AS9100D-aligned. That matters if you supply companies like Apple, Dell, or aerospace primes near Austin. AS9100 means we follow strict quality rules on every part. Your purchasing team can request our certificate any time. It covers our full CNC machining process from raw stock to final inspection.
We machine aluminum, titanium, Inconel, and stainless steel. These metals are common in aerospace work around Austin and nearby San Antonio defense contractors. We cut to print for structural brackets, housings, and flight-critical components. Tell us your alloy and spec. We will confirm material traceability before we start your job.
We hold tolerances as tight as plus or minus 0.0002 inches. That covers most flight hardware specs. Austin aerospace teams at companies like L3Harris or SpaceX Starbase supply chain vendors often need that precision. We use CMM inspection to verify every critical dimension. You get data with your parts.
Standard lead time is 10 to 15 business days. Rush jobs can ship in 5 days for simple parts. Austin aerospace programs often run tight schedules. Call us early in your build cycle. We schedule rush work fast when you give us a firm deadline and approved drawings up front.
We ship every aerospace order with a Certificate of Conformance. You also get material certifications, heat lot traceability, and CMM reports when your print requires them. Austin prime contractors and their auditors expect this paperwork. We keep records on file for three years. You can request copies any time after delivery.
We work with metal distributors that serve the Texas aerospace corridor. That includes suppliers in Austin, Houston, and San Antonio. Local sourcing cuts lead time and keeps your supply chain inside the state. We verify all mill certifications before we cut. You do not have to chase material paperwork on your own.
