CNC Machined Satellite Components for Space Teams
Space teams in Baton Rouge need satellite components that are lightweight, precise, and low-outgassing. We machine aluminum, titanium, and Invar satellite brackets and mounts to ±0.001". AS9100D-aligned documentation on every order.
Space-Grade Materials
Aluminum, titanium, and Invar with full mill cert traceability.
Structural Precision
±0.001" on critical alignment interfaces. CMM inspection.
Space Program Docs
Inspection reports and traceability for space program records.
Petrochemical Precision Meets Aerospace Manufacturing
Baton Rouge's aerospace footprint leverages the region's deep petrochemical and industrial manufacturing expertise — CNC shops experienced in machining exotic alloys for refinery equipment cross over into aerospace turbine components and propulsion hardware. Barksdale AFB in nearby Shreveport sustains B-52 bomber operations, LSU's mechanical engineering programs feed the talent pipeline, and proximity to NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans creates Tier 2 supply chain opportunities.
RivCut serves Baton Rouge aerospace teams with AS9100D-aligned machining, instant quoting, and fixed lead times — the same exotic alloy expertise your petrochemical roots demand, certified for flight.

Precision mounts16 Brackets. 8 Days. Zero NCRs.
A Capital Region satellite team needed deployment brackets for a LEO constellation build — tight alignment holes for hinge pins, lightweight pocketing to hit mass targets, and hard-coat anodize for thermal cycling in orbit. Teams near companies like LSU College of Engineering trust this kind of precision and documentation rigor.
Every part shipped with a complete documentation package:
- CMM dimensional report — every GD&T callout verified
- Mill cert with heat lot number and ASTM B209 compliance
- First Article Inspection report per AS9102
- Hard anodize process cert with thickness verification
What Baton Rouge Aerospace Buyers Should Know
Ask your supplier about exotic alloy machining experience from petrochemical work
Inconel, Hastelloy, and duplex stainless experience translates directly to aerospace turbine programs.
Verify AS9100 certification
Baton Rouge's industrial base is strong in API and ASME but aerospace-specific quality systems require separate certification.
Confirm your shop can meet aerospace documentation requirements beyond oil-and-gas standards
flight-critical traceability is significantly more demanding than API specifications.
When Your Local Shop Can't Keep Up
When a prime surges volume, local shops push you back in the queue. We give you fixed lead times, instant quoting, and aerospace-grade documentation — every time. Baton Rouge's aerospace sector demands it.
Documentation-Ready
Dimensional reports, material certs, and process records ship with every order — no chasing paperwork after delivery.
Full Material Traceability
Every bar ships with mill certs and heat lot numbers. Full chain of custody from raw stock to finished part.
CMM Inspection, Every Part
NIST-traceable CMM verification on every critical dimension before anything ships. No sampling — we inspect every part.
5–7 Day Prototype Turnaround
Most first articles ship in under a week. Rush available for simpler geometries. Confirmed ship date at order.
