Roberts Tool meets customer's challenges by using the latest manufacturing techniques, like lean manufacturing. our extensive utilization of" Cell Manufacturing" has allowed us to go from the present to the future. Very complex stainless steel machined forgings, that you see to the left, with over 100 intersecting bores, last year took 26 weeks to manufacture. Today these parts run through our "Cells" in just 6 days.

At Roberts, we've learned to consistently ask the right questions. Can we alter the design to alter the flow-through? Can we balance different families of parts? How can we move the equipment around to make it more efficient?

This approach puts Roberts way ahead of the pack in lean manufacturing. Roberts is willing to try new things. We're willing to take risks, always keeping in mind our deadlines, our commitments to our customers, and the quality we must deliver. Using advanced CNC machine tools and CAD/CAM, Roberts can hold tolerances 60 times finer than a sheet of paper.

The technology at Roberts progresses to meet the increasing complexity of the parts we are asked to make. We pioneer unique machining methods while still offering competitive pricing. We do this even while machining materials that require complex processes, like chrome grind, nitriding and electron beam welding.

Despite the considerable challenges to our engineering and machining talents, we are still able to offer Just-In-Time delivery with over a 99% rate of effectiveness.

As customer needs change, Roberts increases the level of services we offer. We now provide the opportunity for our customers to buy completed assemblies supporting hydraulic and mechanical applications.

We support this service with a full engineering staff plus a complete assembly and testing department.
