Built for Robotics Teams in Lockheed Country
Marietta's manufacturing identity runs deep. The Lockheed Martin plant on Dobbins Air Reserve Base employs over 7,500 workers building C-130J Super Hercules transports and F-35 center wings. That precision-obsessed culture spills into every tier of Cobb County's supply chain — including the 8 robotics and automation companies operating here today.
RivCut machines robot arm links, end effectors, actuator housings, and custom automation components for robotics teams that can't afford sloppy parts. We hold tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. No minimums. Fast turnaround. Your CAD file gets a real quote in minutes.

Precision CNC Machining for Robotics Teams
Robotics and automation companies in Marietta need parts that are light, stiff, and precisely made. A robot arm link that's off by 0.003 inches affects positioning accuracy across thousands of cycles. We machine aluminum, steel, and titanium to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches — and keep programs on file for fast re-orders.
Lightweight Materials
We machine aluminum 7075 and 6061, titanium, and stainless — materials that give your robot the strength-to-weight ratio it needs.
Tight Tolerances
We hold ±0.001" on general features and ±0.0005" on critical bores and mating interfaces. CMM verified on every complex order.
Fast Re-Order Ready
We keep your programs and fixtures on file. When you need more parts, re-orders are fast with no re-programming delays.
What We Machine for Marietta Robotics Teams
Marietta robotics programs demand precision, traceability, and speed. We deliver all three with every order.
Actuator Housings
We machine lightweight arm links from aluminum 7075-T651 and 6061-T6. These alloys give you a strong strength-to-weight ratio without adding cycle mass. We also machine titanium Grade 5 for joints that face high fatigue loads.
±0.0005" boresJoint & Linkage Components
End effectors need precise bore locations and flat mating surfaces. We hold ±0.001 inches on general features and ±0.0005 inches on critical bores. Every complex end effector gets CMM verification before it ships.
Pin-fit precisionSensor Mounting Hardware
Actuator housings require tight concentricity between bearing bores and mounting faces. We turn and mill these in the same setup to eliminate repositioning error. Motor mounts get drilled and tapped to your exact bolt pattern.
Alignment-criticalEnd Effector & Gripper Parts
If your automation line needs custom fixturing — nest plates, locating pins, vacuum chucks — we machine those too. Many Marietta shops running automation adjacent to aerospace production need one-off fixtures fast. We deliver without minimum order requirements.
Complex geometryStructural Frame Components
Base plates, column sections, and frame brackets for robotic systems. High-strength aluminum and steel with precision-machined mounting surfaces.
