Precision Components for Robotics & Automation

Driving the Next Generation of Robotic Innovation

At AO Precision Manufacturing, we empower OEMs and system integrators in the robotics and automation sectors with high-precision, durable components engineered for reliability, motion accuracy, and long service life.

Our CNC machining, NADCAP-certified plating, and assembly capabilities support the production of structural frames, actuators, housings, and motion-critical components used in industrial robots, warehouse automation, and autonomous platforms.

With 100+ CNC machining centers and vertically integrated finishing and inspection, AO Precision ensures each component meets exacting mechanical and aesthetic requirements delivered on time and ready for integration.

CNC Machining for Robotic Systems

Precision motion starts with precision machining. AO Precision delivers parts that perform flawlessly under high load, speed, and positional accuracy demands.

  • 5-axis and 7-axis machining for complex robotic assemblies
  • High-tolerance production (±.0002″) for precision movement
  • Milling up to 32″ × 24″ × 18″; turning up to 12″ diameter
  • Machining of aluminum, stainless, titanium, and engineered alloys.
  • SPC-driven process control for repeatable consistency

NADCAP Certified Anodizing & Hard Chrome Plating

Our in-house NADCAP-certified plating operations enhance both performance and durability in robotic environments.

  • Hard Chrome Plating: Extended wear resistance for gears, shafts, and motion components
  • Anodizing (Type II & III): Improved corrosion resistance, reduced friction, and cosmetic finish options for robotic housings and arms.
  • Surface roughness and adhesion verification for motion-critical applications
  • Complete in-process inspection and material certification.
