The Robins RubiSurf are CNC surfacing machines designed for precision machining of cylinder heads, engine blocks and manifolds. Engineered to enhance efficiency and accuracy, it significantly reduces the time required for surfacing tasks. For instance, Ross Automotive Machine in Lapeer, Michigan, reported a reduction in surfacing time from 45 minutes to approximately 10 minutes per large 24 valve diesel heads after integrating the RubiSurf into their machine shop operations.

This machine accommodates various components, including exhaust and intake manifolds, offering versatility in engine rebuilding applications. Its user-friendly SMART control allows operators to initiate the machining process and attend to other tasks, thereby optimizing workflow and productivity.

Key Features:

The Robins RubiSurf Smart Surfacing Machines offers several advanced features to enhance machining precision and efficiency:

 

• Turcite Machine Ways and Ball Screws: The machine is equipped with high precision ball screws and Turcite machine ways that allow smooth movement that allows very low WAVINESS numbers required for todays MLS Multi Layer Steel head gaskets. 

 

• Spindle Bearings and Precision Vertical Feed: The spindle is equipped with high precision angular contact bearings and feeds in .0001” .0025mm increments allowing accurate machining with minimum material removal - essential for todays performance and diesel cylinder heads. 



• Dual axis leveling head fixture table and dual axis digital level allow fast set up and precision leveling for minimum material removal. ​

​

Heavy Duty Model: The RubiSurf 1.10 is designed for large diesel and gas heads up to 47” 1,195mm long that are mode from CGI – compact graphite iron. The 4.5” 115mm diameter spindle offers extreme rigidity to give perfect surface finish.
